Did not read all 15 pages, but I'd say IP.board (used to be Invisionboard) is the way to go, it's by far the best forum script I've seen and I use a lot of different forums.

You can put away your 3000BTC, IMHO, that is silly money and the only people you are going to get quoting you in that kind of range are scammers.

http://www.invisionpower.com/apps/board/  <--- $175

Just use it out of the box, and pay someone to export/import your existing data (members, posts, boards etc...)  The whole thing shouldn't set you back more than a grand.

P.S. Looks like they even have a free tool to migrate your existing data from SMF to IP.board: http://www.invisionpower.com/convert/
So that basically cuts your total budget to 9BTC, but you can send the other 3000 or so coins over to me if you'd like

Are you trolling or simply ignorant?

Neither.  You however are fairly rude.

For example: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/ uses IP.Board and the number of users on bitcointalk pales in comparison to the 32,000 users they've had online at one time.

You are ignorant, and yes, I'm rude. Sorry for that.

I think that my ignorance of the child-rate ticket price for the blue line city bus is fairly irrelevant to this topic.

As stated in my original post, I did not read all 15 pages so am ignorant of the contents thereon in.  I hope that you are not ignorant of the topic of my ignorance?

I'm not.
Anyway, reading the requirements of the first post should have been enought.

[dave111223]

I stopped when I reached the line "SMF is very good when viewed from the outside...", and I assume the rest of the post was of a similar note.

I'm not here to offer a bid, quote, or custom solution.  All I'm doing is throwing an idea into the ring for the OP to take a look at.

And for future reference maybe you should check your condensation at the door and simply add a comment of "I don't think IP.Board would be an appropriate solution for reasons XYZ".  Or if "XYZ" is too much trouble for you then leave that part out.

P.S. If I come back here in 6 months and this site is running on IP.board or something similar I officially reserve the right to teabag your face.

Deal.
(If and only the software is IPB+Mods and it is worth < 1000$).

If bitcointalk switches to a forum that looks like that forum, I'm leaving to find another community. That forum looks absolutely atrocious.

As it has now been several months since this was posted and nobody had made a successful bid, I believe now is as good a time as any to take a new approach.

I feel this project would be better suited to an open source collaborative model of development instead of a winner takes all bidding war.

I have registered bitcointalk as an organization on github and will build a basic framework for a forum.

From there features that theymos and users want can be added.

The first step of this process is of course coming up with a core framework, but to do this will require some organization of the features people want that would be well... core.

Toward this end I have started to organize information necessary to build the core.

I would appreciate feedback from both developers and users. (Please post feedback here).

Why not just use a heavily modified version of vbulletin? It has a solid foundation and is easily modifiable and can be greatly expanded upon by someone who knows what they're doing. Hasn't like $70,000 been donated or something? You could use a fraction of that and have a fantastic piece of forum software produced...Hell even this software could function if someone worked to optimize it. Your requirements don't really even correlate to what you need done.

I have a lot of experience with forums/vbulletin/other software and modifying it for specific purposes. I have even more experience and connections for creating small groups of developers to accomplish goals like this. Give me a vbulletin license and funds to assemble a team and pay them as the project hits benchmarks and I would take this on. It wouldn't cost you nearly the amount you're bidding in the thread title by the end and you'd not only get what you want but insure completion by offering benchmark based payments for incentive/allowing you/us to modify the expected work/payment at any given time based on needs/desires.

Anyway if you're interested shoot me a PM and we can discuss some details and I will contact my men to start work on a feature list and production/payment schedule.

I assure you there is no reason or need for you to spend 10s of thousands of dollars on creating a ground up forum software for a community of this size and with the needs you list. Much much larger and demanding communities are run off of heavily modified vbulletin software.

It doesn't look like anyone has made a solid commitment to delivering what you want and I am 100% confident that I can, along with assistance from my team, fulfill any desires you have regarding functionality, ease of modifying, and features.

There are private bids, too...

Not going to suggest another forum board software (some people can't get the hint it seems), but i would like to recommend a company. I've freelanced with these guys and worked with them in other capacities (they did the website for both the hospital i worked at and one of the charities i volunteer for). Very technical and creative, easy to talk to, huge on anything involving online commerce, and extremely hard working. they handle enterprise level projects all the time. Give them a shout.

16 months and no progress.  I wonder why this forum is still trying to do things this way when it clearly doesn't work.

[ironcross360]

For 35 btc Ill add a chatbox/shoutbox, And a box saying the current btc price and statistics.  Also I will change the forum engine to a more secure engine.

[Vod]

My bid is 2000BTC. The first payment would be 25% and again this is only after I have provided a working product.

 

At this point they could buy an IPB license, with more features than you could ever program, for 5btc.  And then spend maybe 100btc more to customize it.  They just don't want to do anything.
