    FYI -- You're on the New Server

    I'm hoping within the next 48 hours you notice a change and the DNS issues go away. Please keep me updated if you are or are not having problems over the coming days.

    FYI -- You're on the New Server

    I've heard the same from other users. I switched the host name, it seems to have helped. If it does go down again, try a direct tracert to: 72.232.225.58

    FYI -- You're on the New Server

    Thanks for the update, I've heard the same. If one of those users is capable of doing a trace and can send it to you to post, that would be great. In either case, I'm continuing to look into it.

    DNS issue should be fixed, if you continue to have issues, please let me know so I can continue to investigate.

    FYI -- You're on the New Server

    Please let me know if you continue to get those issues. I've been doing a lot of mysql optimization, and have a bit more to do yet. Some of the optimization requires services to be restarted, which could result in very brief (under 1 min) downtime. In any event, if you continue to have...

    FYI -- You're on the New Server

    That was expected actually. Had to run a database import that took almost 11 hours, during which time we experienced server loads ranging from 5 to 10, which is fairly high, and it'd be totally normal to experience lag in that situation. Typically on any kind of shared hosting (GoDaddy, etc)...

    The new Bulletin Board

    Only on pro-silver. It's a mod, and it only had modifications for prosilver. It's possible to put it on all the others, but I haven't found the info on how to do it yet. And it shouldn't just be a link at the bottom of prosilver, it should be an image just like the post reply button, but I...

    The new Bulletin Board

    Mike, The mail function is now working. You can now set registrations to be verified via email by the user. I would recommend waiting on this for a few more days until more old members have had a chance to re-register without the extra step, just makes it easier. But eventually you should...

    Don't worry, no scruff off my back! People always resist change, have since the beginning of time, but sometimes there's nothing you can do ... evolve or die! Heh. I added the black pearl style, hope it helps! (You can change to it by going to the User Control Panel) KJ

    Come on Mike! Nothing is impossible if you have enough money to throw at the problem! It would just be very difficult. Someone would have to take your old database, and convert it so that it fits phpbb's style in a mysql format. No easy task. Basically, you need a script which auto converts...

    Well, if you really want to try and convert the old board, I suggest having Mike go to some type of developer forum and soliciting a quote. I was guesstimating when I estimated a few hundred. I don't really have a suggestion on anywhere or anyone who may be able to transfer the forum, it's...

    Yeah, with prosilver your stuck with the whole phpbb logo unless you do some serious work to replace the entire header like I did on WoKJ. Not fun.

    The new Bulletin Board

    I don't really like the prosilver, but some people do. Problem is, it doesn't fit with the theme of the site at all! The default goes well with the logo and such. I hope to eventually get quick reply working on the default template as well.

    The new Bulletin Board

    I added a "Quick Reply" to the prosilver style, so if that's a big sticking point for you, switch to that style. It allows you to reply without going to another page, all you have to do is hit the words "Quick Reply" at the bottom of the thread. There should be an image showing up, but I...

    No biggie, good way to waste time and keep me from doing any real work.

    aara, that is likely due to some kind of cache or cookies error you are having. For whatever reason, your browser is not accepting the forums cookie, so it doesn't recognize you as logged in. I would try modifying your cookie settings, clearing your cache for this site, then re-starting your...

    It seems most of you, including Mike, find this style bland. I'll go ahead an install a new one, let me know what you think.
