Big upgrade later today

[rpm]

Hi folks

We will start a significant forum upgrade at 00:00 tonight. This is a rather big progress and will mean that the forum will be closed for a long time (it can run into hours). We did extensive testing over the last month, and hopes that the process will go smoothly.

If you log in on Sunday morning and the forum looks the same as now you will know that we had to roll back

Initially no - we need to upgrade successfully first, then look at addons

I do hope my server repair will be done by then otherwise I don't know what I'm going to do.

Already can't think of something worthwhile to do on the net waiting for server to reinstall so that I can start recovering


Hopefully everything goes smooth and super fast on your upgrade

 

[Tpex]

YAY! you going to upgrade to the new BB forums thingy of the name I can't recall?
Good luck, hope it goes smooth

Good luck hope all goes well.

I just hope that JavaScript won't be required. I access the web via a proxy that can't support JavaScript.

I'm eager to see how it will look All the best to rpm and co.

Here's hoping it doesn't return with more useless emoticons; pathetic avatars which the user thereof thinks makes him cool; things like images in sigs which add nothing to the value of the forum; personalised titles which people will use in attempts at humour; excessive sub-forums and resultant loss of focus; and silly colours!

Thanks!

 

[bekdik]

put a set of new AAA's in before starting

 

[waynegohl]

did someone mention strapons, well anyway good luck with the upgrade.

 

[morkhans]

Good luck!

Should things go wrong, blame the prawns from District 9.

I expect us moderators will have to babysit myBB as well

Here's hoping it will return with more usefull emoticons; awesome avatars which the user thereof thinks makes him cool; things like images in sigs which add a bit more to the value of the forum; personalised titles which people will use in attempts at humour; excessive sub-forums and resultant loss of focus; and silly colours!

Thanks!

You such a happy person Lancelot

BTW rpm, please make a backup...

 

[LazyLion]

Can I have the old one?

 

[Rodent-Boy]

But for people in NZ it's already tomorrow. Is it different for them already?

 

[medicnick83]

rpm, no offense boss, but you don't know anything about downtime till you've spent time on Neotel.

Good luck!

See you guys tomorrow after the upgrade, I hope there are lots of features!
