MyBB.com Donation Drive
For some time now the domain MyBB.com has been owned by another party and not used (also known as domain parking). Numerous attempts have been made to purchase the domain for the MyBB project, but the price has always been too far out of our reach. Thanks to labrocca, we now have a price that is much more feasible for us to obtain. A special deal is open just to the MyBB Group to get this domain, but the offer is not open indefinitely. We need to raise $3,000 to secure the domain.
Why MyBB.com?
Instant recognition
Why is obtaining MyBB.com so important to the MyBB Group? We believe obtaining the domain will be beneficial to reach a larger audience who will see us as a striving project in need of recognition as the very competitive forum solution that we are. MyBB.com is less of an effort to type in and remember, when compared to MyBBoard.net. Further, the current domain, MyBBoard.net, can be confusing - what exactly is the project name? It could be MyB Board, MyBB Board, MyBB, or something completely different. MyBB.com makes our project instantly recognizable and is much easier to remember.
Where do we begin?
We need your support
While several staff and community members have already expressed interest in donating an amount for the domain, we're still quite a bit off. Without our staff and valued members we would not be where we are today, and without you, we cannot advance into a new era. We're counting on your donations to reach this goal. Please take the time to consider how much you are able to donate towards our goal. If you are not capable of donating at this time, you can still assist us by spreading the word to your community or perhaps other MyBB users who may not know. Anything you can do will help us, and we are thankful for everything.
Contributions to the donation drive will solely go toward purchasing the MyBB.com domain from its current owner. If the domain has not been successfully obtained within sixty days, donations will be returned by request.
