Okay, here's the story. *skip the next paragraph if you don't want to read it, it's not needed: just helpful.*

I joined a UBB back in August. I quickly became a moderator. Then, in December, I became an administrator after the website owner vanished. In January, he came back to the website to tell us that he would be choosing a new website owner. In February, he chose ME as the new owner. By then, the UBB went from 100% Pokémon (what it was originally meant for) to including multiple different anime and videogames. However, we wanted to clean this up and make it 100% Pokémon again, without getting rid of all the other stuff we added - sim-battling, Zelda, Gundam Wing, DBZ, etc. I immediately thought of my old website - Neo Mewtown. It had an EzBoard with it. The EzBoard was for ALL types of videogames, N64, PSX, SNES, and all the rest (those were the big ones back when I made this board). I had always wanted to upgrade it to a UBB. So, I got ahold of the zip files for UBB V.545b.

I tried installing the UBB (v. 545b) multiple times, using multiple FTP programs, but none of them worked out right for me. So, therefore, I need someone else to install it for me. It will go on Hypermart server #49, and I would like a few hacks installed: News fader, Userimages, karma, and a few others that would be of any convenience. The installer can remain an administrator after finishing the installation as long as they remain a respectable administrator, and not someone that wrongfully enforces dumb rules. Sound easy enough, does it not? If you're interested, e-mail me at [email protected] with the URL to a UBB you've already installed, to show me that you can handle it.

Thanx,
M2o

Why are you installing 5.45? The newest versions are 5.47 and 6.04 I think.

*notices sentence he didn't see before*

ahem, you have to buy a license to use UBB.

Because I've had this one for eons, and I don't feel like going on and getting any new ones.

That's classic...if I got a nickel for every time I've heard this one, I'd have 3 UBB licenses by now laugh

Then I suggest you either
a) get a license
b) delete that copy of ubb and get an alternative

or you will find yourself in big trouble.
Your site will get shot down quicker than cal in a game of laserquest tipsy

Sally's advice is correct. We do not condone or support illegal UBB's in any way shape or form here.
