I consider this to be great news.
Thanks for being so transparent on the future of SCF.
A few suggestions and questions related to the site:
1.) Are you currently (or do you plan to) advertise SCF through well known sports cards sites (e.g. cardboard connection) or card shows to increase user traffic?
2.) Faster throughput/performance would be great to see.
3.) +1 on plans to improve the mobile site.
4.) It'd be great to have the option to display a "trade manager summary" perhaps of confirmed/pending trades in the UserCP.

The one thing that I would like to see improved is search capability on the site. I think it's really lacking. For example, limiting a search to a specific forum, like hockey card trading, and not anywhere else... or searching for a specific phrase and have only verbatim results come back. Right now, when I search for precious gems I get precious metal gems back as a hit. Doing things like excluding certain words would be a dream. Hopefully this is helpful. It's my two cents, anyway. Needless to say, appreciate that this site exists and the work you do to make it run.

I didn't read all of the responses, so somebody else may have mentioned this. One thing I would find IMMENSELY helpful is if in the TTM section, if a player requires a donation to sign, could that be easier to find? I've had three different requests returned unsigned (or with a note asking for me to resubmit with proper donation), and I wonder if others didn't bother to send the cards back without a donation. Thanks!

My most desired upgrade would definitely include a way for us to get away from picture hosting sites and BB code.
#2 would probably revolve around the sluggishness of the site, as a whole.
#3 I would like to a way to separate base trading from autos/relics/SP's etc. There's absolutely nothing wrong with trading base, just makes for a lot of threads to scan through when I am looking for other types of cards.

Please see some direct replies below....
@CoolHandLuke - could something like this be done with a checkbox indicating that a donation is required (maybe add in an optional field to allow for details about this donation)?
This would be something in the meantime that can be added to the comments on the failure while I understand what would needed to be done programmatically on the TTM.
the issue is vBulletin itself... there is no way at this point to avoid the 3rd party and/or the BB code. You can use the Attachment function in the posting, but it does have limitations
In the trading sections, I can add in a Prefix for Base Card Trading. I would be hesistant in adding another forum as it would just add more load onto the database
There was a modification that I had added in last year that I needed to pull off after Black Sunday in October to ensure that the site got back running again that did help in the searchability of SCF. While I'm home for the next week, I'll work on reintegrating that search modification to forums.
1) Sites --> No; Shows is something that I would like to work with promoters and/or members that setup in getting cards or flyers about SCF at the shows. Additionally, I have thought about getting SCF T-shirts done so when members go to shows, they can wear them to shows.
4) Well, that information for the Trade Manager is on the left hand side of the UserCP page.

I can add in a link to the SCF Member Menu at the top right to go to the Trade Manager.

there is the ability to mark your own threads as being "closed"

However, I think a change in the verbiage is needed to be more global in closing a thread.
Well, we have some of the pieces you are mentioning in the Inventory Manager already, if I understand correctly your vision. There are aspects that need to be enhanced but I believe vast majority of this already is in existence.
If you have specifics on your thoughts, please share. I want to be sure I am on the same page with you.
Thank you for finding us! As for the image resizing automatically, I'll defer this to @CoolHandLuke to discuss this further. I understand you point completely.
Well, you have nailed part of the issue with the backend database storing the forum information. However, one of the issues that I need to understand is how vBulletin can/would run with a cloud database that is not hosted on the same server. I am working on this research at this point.
I'm not sure I saw this submission... i'll check with @lil5up3rman and @bakemeister about this
Like this? --> https://www.sportscardforum.com/scft...wplayer/4/4513
The team information can be found by selecting Team Fan Pack on the left hand menu.
If you are thinking about something different, please let me know.
Effeicent, not lazy
I think this would be a discussion I would need @CoolHandLuke to be more involved with.
Team in Nascar? Racing Teams such as Hendrick Motorsports?

I thought of another thing (not to pile on) - is there a way for a user to delete threads that user started? I have tried looking into this before and seems like that's not an option right now. It would be great, if a user could go into MyThreads and remove old threads forever. Otherwise, my threads gets kind of messy. Thanks!

found that this can cause issues with the Database - however, I'll defer this to @DirtyHarry
