FJ turns 15 this Friday. Yay go us 
Thank you to all past, present and future members of our wonderful forum.
There is going to be some changes to FJ in the coming months.
Firstly, at some stage next year I will be stepping back as admin of this forum. It's time for me to hand it over to others. I will still be around but more in a posting capacity. I will be talking to people (all current FJ people) about them running the ship when I step back. This will also allow me to be more active on other forums. If you have a forum and you still remain on FJ then I'll be more active on your forum.
Secondly, We are now offering a merger with another forum.
If you have a forum but are not 100% happy with how it is going, read on: (no need to read on if you're happy with your forum)
We are offering another forum to 'join' us. What would happen is you would receive a full category of your own. Example: if your forum name is bananas are yellow you would be given a category on the forum with your forum name. Say you have a dozen message boards, then those message boards would be on Funjoint in its own category (most likely under the 'Chat' section. If your forum has lots and lots of message boards then they'd have to be condensed as we don't want too many boards in the one category.
The admin of that forum that merges in with us would automatically be on staff. AT LEAST a moderator position (possibly higher). If you have other staff, then positions for them can be discussed.
The catch: As you are merging with us, your forum would have to close. It goes on MM with a link to Funjoint. You must also have AT LEAST 6 active members and they must also be willing to move to Funjoint and also be active and/or regularly visits. Any members that move including the admin will have their post count from your forum given on Funjoint. The more members you have that would be prepared to join our already very active forum the better.
Other info: The Funjoint link would remain but it can be discussed re the name of the forum. Funjoint can possibly become Funjoint incorporating ......
This is to be a merger not a takeover. Your members would be looked after and made to feel very welcome.
Funjoint is 15 years old and everyone talks to each other and everyone is made welcome.
The idea of this is to create a SUPER FORUM.
PM me if you are interested, thanks
The above was posted on proboards support so it is highly unlikely any current member of FJ is interested in this but thought I should post it here anyway. However if you are an FJ member and interested, then your post counts would be combined as it also would if anyone from FJ is a member of both forums.
