Title: New forum software
Post by: ACAMS on June 27, 2011, 06:36:31 PM
2.0 Gold is out that fixes a few bugs and is more secure, but if I update the forum WILL change like it did when I updated to 2.0 RC3.
You guys tell me what you think. Right now you CAN NOT block PM's from unwanted members, the poll is messed up if you need more than 5 questions, and other little bugs we wont get into, so you guys tell me what you think.......GO VOTE!


No posts will be lost (I hope) and I will be able to make most of the modifications work again.

Provided it's been thoroughly tested and we can be absolutely sure that it'll work, I don't see why not.

ACAMS, if you think it is worth it then I'm all for it.

Same logic as GF93. I'm all for it if it's been sufficiently tested and such. =]

If you can make it look this pretty again and we won't lose posts I'm all for it. You should be able to save a backup version incase anything happens.

I say yes, and offer myself as a tester if the need ever arises

Yeah, as long as it's actually worth it and is thoroughly tested, (and I won't lose my new colour :3) I don't see why not (:

Lol I like how he was "proud not to whine to be AU" or something and now that he is he removed quickly the signature *shifty eyes*

Reverse psychology... Sneaky, sneaky Craaig.

Though as a trickster, I must say well done.

Im fine with it if the transition is smooth enough, the SMF switch butchered a lot of existing topics..

How ironic would it be if the server was upgraded, and Craaig lost his AU title? =D

Rather so

I voted no. The current server seems stable, and the update is only out for 3 weeks now, "little fixes" are still bound to happen.

I'd say wait a month or two and then see if the update can be done smoothly.

As long as it doesn't mess up all the quotes and is thoroughly tested for bugs and backward compatibility, I don't see why not.
