AustralianComedy.net Launch!

As you can see, the new domain name for MOSH is AustralianComedy.net !

Spoofy originally suggested this name and I decided that it was really the best way to go for the future. With "MOSH" no longer being in the name it is possible to change the name of the forum, if people want to, without requiring a change if we don't.

It also makes it a lot more clear that this site is for all fans of Australian Comedy, not just those of one particular monkeyboy...

Along with the change to a top level domain, the forum has been updated to the latest beta of the vBulletin software, enabling a truckload of new features, such as a much better tagging system, member picture galleries, social groups and a bunch of other things.

There's going to be a couple of threads explaining some specific changes that have been made, but if you have any questions not covered in those, feel free to fire away!

Welcome to the new site.

Oh, by the way... You can use Hotmail and Yahoo addresses again. At least for now.

I'm astonished this URL hadn't already been pinched. Nice one, Spoof!

The .com was, but not .net
I didn't even bother checking .net when I saw .com so big thumbs up to Spoof.

Everyone else will get here soon... Once I either sort out the redirect or give up.

All of it looks pretty good. =) I really like the name.

I think I'll start ferreting around now. See if I can bother some people.

I like the name - simple and to the point

The .com site is currently just a placeholder with lots of ads for Ugg Boots...

Nice -- thanks for the effort put in, Mythor.
The domain suits well, too.

Yes, some thought was given to trying to buy the .com from the squatter but at the time the asking price was almost $700 and now it's almost $800. It seemed a bit much, especially when .net was available anyway and .net is cooler.

sweet. if we don't change the name can we at least revamp the logo? the smiley face is a bit tired looking

maybe we could have a comp to get people involved, design a new logo
