folks, i just successfully backed up the whole forum, and over the next few days i'm gonna (hopefully) perform a long-overdue upgrade under the hood of the site.
so if you come to the site some time over the next week or so and it's down, it's ok (probably) and will be back up the next day at the latest (unless i totally screw it up, then i'll be spending a couple of sleepless nights trying to rebuild the forum).
party on.

Re: BOARD BACKUP AND UPGRADES
ok guys and gals, it seems like the upgrades were successful, which means i won't have to stay up all night for the next 3 days as usual when i'm upgrading the board's software (which is nice for a change).
i still expect for us to encounter some weirdness, so as you find it, let me know about it. i already see that our intros are showing now, which i may be able to turn off with a switch somewhere, or i may just leave it if that's the general consensus. anyway, test drive the new software and let me know what you folks think.
take care!

- SELF INTRODUCTION: I was on the last board as bonustoolkit. I have changed that to my given name.
I started a project build there " File and Fit." I paln to continue that when I go back home in Dec. 2011. I first joined the board when Gary W had it in the year 2005. That was the time I really gained an interest in building chops. I have a long way to go, compared to some here.
Re: BOARD BACKUP AND UPGRADES

Re: BOARD BACKUP AND UPGRADES
Well I see something that is annoying , You no longer get a "View new posts" button after sign in !
It is preferable (to me at least) not to have to scan thru the entire page looking for new posts when they can be accessed as a group the way it was before this update !
