Huge thanks to everyone who helped bring SkiffHQ.com to life — what started as an idea on May 28th 2025 is now a live, growing community as of June 2nd 2025. That’s just 5 days — and it wouldn’t have happened without all of you.
Special shoutouts to @Zika, @Smackdaddy53, @JCDesigns, and @DBStoots — you guys answered countless texts and calls, offered honest feedback, and were there at every step. I truly appreciate the time and energy you gave this.
Behind the scenes, there were a lot of long nights spent securing the domain, wrangling DNS records, setting up SMTP servers, writing code, and testing things to get us across the finish line. It was a grind, but 100% worth it knowing this space is already bringing people together.
Now that we’re live, I’d love to get more folks involved. This is your space — not mine — and the more hands and talents we have, the better it’ll be.
If you have skills in:
- Graphic design (site tweaks, icons, future merch)
- Legal help (LLC setup, site policies, community guidelines)
- Marketing or promotion (social media, boating groups, word-of-mouth)
- Logo/tagline ideas for SkiffHQ
- Merch design (shirts, stickers, hats, etc.)
- Forum moderation (keeping the vibe helpful and respectful)
- Writing/editing (FAQs, community docs, future blog content)
- Photography/videography (header images, brand visuals, skiff content)
- SEO / analytics setup (to help more people find us)
- Technical help (Discourse tips, backups, uptime monitoring)
…or anything else you think could help — drop a comment or shoot me a DM. If you’ve got a good idea or skill, there’s likely a spot for it here.
Thanks again, seriously. Let’s build something great here, together.
