    I had several suggestions, some, that I've mentioned before, but never really went anywhere.

    MOTM - member of the month, where a member receives an award...this one's debatable :O
    TOTW - topic of the week, like where you can nominate a post, and it receives a vote. Then, people can earn rewards for their posts.
    Referrals - add a referral system to NF...

    Yeah, I can't think of more at the top of my head, but reply to all so they don't die out :D

    The others I could see happening, but this one... :|
    What would the reward be? FC I'd guess. With this, I'd see people asking others just to sign up and never come again just for 10FC. Maybe, just maybe we could do rep for referrals. Rep is more of a pride thing, rather than a reward that people can abuse. If we did this, there would have to be a lot of rules centered around it. Like maybe your referral has to reach level I before you receive the ##FC or only so much of reward X can be given pre day/week/month.

    phpBB is free and licensed as GPL
    vBulletin costs a lot of money and is butt ugly :p

    Very true, but phpBB is very hard to mod, and apparently functions a little weird o_O
    vBulletin has this problem with the database even when paid, unless you can Premium :( -- it's wwaayy too much :X:

    That's not true. Modding in phpBB works much the same as other forum software packages.
