Skullheart: The New (Official) Skullgirls Forum!

Zidiane · February 14

Juuuuust in case you didn't know already, a new forum popped up recently. Skullheart! Even if you have no plans on moving from SRK (even though you can be at both forums) you should check it out. It has some really nifty things there, and several Skullgirl players already visit. So, if you ain't one of 'em, you need to re-prioritize your internet time for a minute!

Krackatoa · February 15

You're going to get a lot of traffic thanks to the SRK rework. Hahaha

Number 13 · February 15

The forum is looking better everyday(thank Vad for that), registered members are steadily climbing, and tourney events including the online gathering "SkullBats" are much more organized .

I'll repeat what i said on some other thread already, the point of SH is not to be some Noah's Ark preparing a mass exodus... its supposed to be a central hangout where the fandom could unite from the gaming aspect to the arts aspect to exchange ideas. No reason not to do SH and Srk in separate tabs if you personally prefer to frequent Srk still.

Update: Might as well say this too...Mike Z not a big fan of the New Srk based on what he just said on the Salty Cupcake stream and thinks Dustloop looks better in comparison. He hasn't seen SH yet when someone brought it up, but will take a look at it soon since he liked the idea that the community made a dedicated site happen for Skullgirls.

SH is looking sweeeet. Will relocate there for any Skullgirls info.

Vulpes · February 16

As long as SRK looks like this, nobody is seriously staying here.

rayplay · February 17

Joined. Liking it so far.

keninblack · February 17

Yeah, everyone go to Skullheart. ITS THE MOVE. BANG BANG

Sanger Zonvolt · February 17

The community is growing there, quite awesome.

Zidiane · February 17

The Skullgirls custom theme is awesome.

RustyShacklefurd · February 28

Shameless bump. come on over, it's safe, and it's sexy. Also it doesn't frag your mind with bright laser-like lighting.

5th Of Dismember · March 1

now that there is a forum like this kinda no reason fro me to be here on shoryuken

Kawalorn · March 1

And fresh news! Skullheart will actually become official Skullgirls forum! More details here: http://skullheart.com/forums/index.php?threads/skullheart-becoming-official.362/

I mean, why should they make their own when they already have a good one? ;)

Zidiane · March 8

Skullheart is awesome.

Agreed. They're quite awesome. And mature. Which, unfortunately, is rare on the Internet.

Yeah. I get spoiled with the Skullgirls community. I go other places and people act all immature and shit.

The Japanese section will happen as soon as we can find a mod with enough proficiency in the language to actually perform mod duties. Officialness will happen when Lab Zero get time to make the announcement.

d3v · March 20

What's up with the site? I keep getting a "You don't have permission to access /forums/index.php on this server" message when I try to get on.

Little_Goten · March 20

Is there something wrong with this site? Maintenance perhaps? Because it just fell off of the planet . . .

Guys, skullheart is down for the moment and I'm not going to be able to work on it until I get home from university (about 6 hours from now). My university also IP-blocks access the the IRC so if someone can do me a favour and spread the word on there I would be much obliged.

Apologies for any inconvenience - I just have no way of dealing with the issue right now.

I'll note labzerogames.com (where the IGG images are all stored) is down as well. It shouldn't be related to Skullheart, but interestingly enough is down nonetheless.

Is that also why no donations have been made in the last 30-40 minutes or is that just mere coincidence? Because if it's the former, then this is the worse damn time for something like that to possibly happen.

Number 13 · March 21

Late News, but for the sake of the lurkers the site is up again

Mr. X · March 25

Site is down, Vad has uni in a few hours so yeah giving yall a heads up

Mr. X · March 25

IRC http://client00.chat.mibbit.com/?channel=#skullgirls&server=irc.mizuumi.net

Mr. X · March 25

Back up

Vulpes · March 25

Back up!

Zazzarius · March 26

getting a different error now

Service Unavailable

i think the hype literally broke skullheart

Rabbit360 · March 26

edit: at least there is a backup forum when skullheart is down.

0sh · March 26

Yeah, so basically we have no choice right now but to look for a new host, which could take anything from a few hours to several days. I know this can be frustrating, and I really am doing everything I can to make things work.

venusandeve · March 26

LOL, I remember bragging about the number of users we had on that "why is SG unpopular" thread. we should've seen it coming XD

XthAtGAm3RGuYX · March 26

Should've expected it because of the fundraiser. The lesson to be learned is that, however popular you expect SG to be or how fast you expect it to grow, is clearly an underestimation.

Motch420 · March 31

I do hope skull heart comes back up soo I do miss it

XthAtGAm3RGuYX · March 31

As long as they don't come back with a new format I am content with waiting. The sooner the better though. The IRC can get pretty stale and nobody wants to recreate the the SH threads on here

Zidiane · March 31

It should be up monday or tuesday.

evilweevle · March 31

lol this is the breast cancer fundraiser scenario all over again. Quick better make a new website!

0sh · March 31

Sorry guys, I thought I had already posted in this thread. As things currently stand, it looks like we'll be moving to one of Autumn's servers, but I'm waiting to hear back from their tech guy. The idea is to make the move to the new server "this weekend or early next week".

And don't worry. Everything will be exactly the same as when the site went down (well, actually there's a new version of xenForo out, but you get the point).

"This weekend or early next week". Does that mean within the next couple days, or 7 day minimum?

What's xenForo?

XthAtGAm3RGuYX · March 31

Xenforo is the forum layout SkullHeart runs. Better known as the old SRK layout

I can't really answer your question about the timeframe - those are the exact words that were sent to me.

And yeah, xenForo is the forum software that the site is running.

Louiscipher · March 31

They should switch to Vanilla.

venusandeve · March 31

I just want the forum as it looked, with the functions it had. If it happens under the hood though, don't care much to know.

I can't believe I slept on this game for so long, I tried to get into skullgirls because of the Dlc fundraiser and I'm having a blast. I can't wait for skull heart to come back up, I didn't even get to see what it looked like!

It was beautiful, man. Text at the perfect contrast, avatars were a great size, the big skullgirls news in the form of threads on the front page, you could even upload images on it...

Not to mention, the community was top notch as well. They're mature, a rarity on the Internet, and they're smart, funny, and even respectful.

SpaceOutNightmare · April 1

always thought it was kind of a dick move to advertise our forums here but eh

Motch420 · April 5

It maybe a dick move, but if we hadnt no one would really know about skullheart, it was a necessary evil so to speak

How is it a dick move? Neither of forums are actually competing against each other. You can go to both sites.

this why I enjoy the SG community we help each other and there is no putting Down of one of our own

XthAtGAm3RGuYX · April 6

That's actually why I don't want the marvel crowd involved with this game. SG's community would sour a but because of them. We don't need the excessive smack talk and shit like that

Fandoms always start off that way. As fans we want more people to get into our "thing" to help our thing grow, but as more people get into it, you get more angry people who start to take it way to seriously. I'll admit I'm a brony, but people in that fandom have started to turn even on the creators of the show when they do something that doesn't 100% agree with their interpretation of things. I guess I'm moving to the skullgirls fandom now. :)
