Oh we moved ages ago. We just pretend that we are still on this site. You will never know the URL! T.T

I'm just curious about what program will be used, if it will be paid, and if there will be a variety of skins or not.

As articulated better by pinkyconehead in his Social Thread than my previous attempts, we need a social gathering place to just be able to hang out and talk or chill such as a voice server or chat room (preferably a hybrid or both). This is not merely optional, but necessary for a legitimate thriving community, in my opinion.
In the meantime, pinkyconehead has taken it upon himself to set up a channel (#squidboards) on the IRC server QuakeNet, for which he has created a thread in General Discussion. I think that thread should be moved to Important Topics now that I have had more time to think about it, and in the future that thread should be updated with any changes to the IRC channel and with a future voice server.
Now on to our options for voice. I personally have experience hosting TeamSpeak back in the 2.0 days. I have used TS3, and it is exceptional. I have also leased a Ventrilo (another great program) server for my old clan about a decade ago. More recently there is also the open source program Mumble, which I have used as well and find it to also be a great option for voice.
If no one else is willing to step up, I will gladly work toward either hosting or leasing a voice server for Squidboards. If anyone is interested, I can take a poll on which program (TS3, Mumble, Vent) would be preferred.
Edit: I have decided that for the time being, I am going to work on getting a Mumble server going myself, since it is free of restrictions.

One of my friends has a capture card that works for both Wii and Wii U. I plan on streaming Splatoon when it comes out, so maybe I'll be able to make some videos in the future. I can stream as well, though I've done more recording than actual live streaming. I noticed that MKBoards has a section where you can see users who are currently streaming on services such as Twitch.tv with links to their channels. I think it would be cool if the final version of Squidboards could have something implemented like that to make it easy to watch our own users playing something. They don't have to just be playing Splatoon or a Nintendo game either, but could be playing anything.

We'll have a chat room for everyone to hang out in, as well as a feature that will show users currently streaming.

That is cool. By "very soon" do you mean within a week? Sweet!

You're all going to enjoy how the official site has turned out. There's a lot in store. And definitely more on the way post-launch. A lot of work has gone into Squidboards so far. Hope you all enjoy the new pad when it's ready. ^_^
