General Discussion / Contest - Hard to Find Chips
Last post by Charles Kaplan LM-0115-048 - Jan 26, 2026, 12:58 PMThe next MoGH seminar is about using the ChipGuide search facilities to locate hard to find chips. I need your images of some chips that are already on the ChipGuide, or should be on the ChipGuide, and are difficult to locate. I will need several of them for the demonstration. Please email your chips to me directly, don't post them on this Board. If I use one of chips in the seminar, you will be rewarded with a free $5 casino chip.

Last post by Dan M R-9148 - Jan 22, 2026, 03:03 PMI missed that! Well that's cool, I had PokerChipper.com up in a day, but I get it.
I suppose it's a revenue stream so good on him. PCF is a revenue stream also. Chipper is for the hobby from the heart. Not jabbing just sayin. Maybe when he pulls the trigger it will bring folks to the other 2 since they'll know how to use it!
It may also bring folks here to the official club boards as it is very similar.

Last post by Bob Pardue CLM-0003-40 - Jan 22, 2026, 11:04 AMDan, did you see Spragg's "Important Forum Changes" post on the ChipBoard on Sept 21 -- link here:
http://www.thechipboard.com/index.cgi/md/read/id/1773396/sbj/important-forum-changes/
Looks like he has chosen xenforo, one of the ones you mention above.
It appears he intends to update it soon. In fairness, he's had his hands full with selling CPC, being the new Convention co-chair and other stuff.

Last post by Dan M R-9148 - Jan 22, 2026, 09:01 AMThe Chp board hasn't had recent developments in over a decade. i guess thats why it has no browsing security.
I asked the chat........... This platform is better for sure
Tetra-WebBBS is generally considered outdated today. Here's why:
🕰� Age and lack of recent development
The most widely referenced versions of Tetra-WebBBS go back many years (e.g., version 6.21 mentioned by users) and there's little evidence of ongoing modern development or active releases in the past decade.
Listings for it on script directories show dates from the 2000s era, which strongly suggests it hasn't kept pace with newer forum software.
📉 Compared to modern forum platforms
Modern forum software (like phpBB, Discourse, Flarum, XenForo, etc.) receives frequent updates, security patches, plugin ecosystems, and ongoing community support — none of which are evident for Tetra-WebBBS. For many admins today, that makes Tetra less suitable for production use.
⚠️ Security & compatibility concerns
Because it's not actively maintained, software that old:
Is unlikely to have recent security updates
May not run cleanly on current versions of PHP or modern web servers
Lacks integration with modern authentication, spam prevention, and responsive design
🧠 Summary
So in practical terms:
✔ It *works as a basic BBS/forum engine from the early web era.†
✖ But it's outdated by modern web standards and isn't recommended for new communities unless you have a specific retro or legacy reason to use it.

Events / Re: CCA Banquet
Last post by Bob Pardue CLM-0003-40 - Jan 21, 2026, 10:34 PMI can't 100% confirm this, but I heard that the Las Vegas Mayor, Shelley Berkley, agreed to be the 2026 banquet speaker. As you may recall, she was in attendance at the 2025 banquet, presenting the MOGH proclamation.
She should be an interesting speaker, I think. I'm planning to attend.
