Onionfarms.net. This is the first phase on where I will guide the Onionfarms community. I have gotten in contact with a web developer in the MyBB community who will be able to help me with the tabbed pages with a custom plugin. Once I get this out of the way, the tabbed pages will serve to link the two forums together. A staff member has already promised to help build the Onionfarms.net community so this is a long term project. Don't worry, we are still keeping xenforo for the onionfarms.com. We have alternate sources if we need help.

MyBB has a built-in system to prefix topics. PhpBB does not.

My only concern with this is resource management. We've had several occasions where the physical server filled up which caused issues with the site in terms of posts and attachments. Is there a plan to put .net on it's own server if this becomes an issue in the future?

You mean in terms of running out of disk space? We are on solid ground for now.

Update on my project: I am having extra coding done on this: When it is finished, administrators will be able to add content to the tabbed pages directly using the MyBB editor without having to worry about HTML. This will be open to all administrators on Onionfarms.net This is going to give us a huge advantage over how Kiwifarms features its updates.
