I’m going to be upgrading the forums to vBulletin in March. I don’t have a specific date, but it’ll be more likely in the early to mid March.
Also, been working with the graphic designer on a banner for the board when we make the move.
This is probably going to be the final version:

Just wanted everyone to know what’s going on with that.
How does the move work Manny?
Will it mean losing all the existing posts? I really hope it doesn’t 
and will we have to register for the forum again?
By the way, I love that new graphic! 
Excellent graphic IMO…when’s the update :?:
i’m still okay to help donate towards the new software
Mark, youve been gone for quite a while…shoot me a PM let me know whats going on
I overlooked this post, sorry Neil! :oops:
Hopefully, whatever posts we have left from my previous blunder will be kept and I’m praying that we all don’t have to register again. vBulletin has a converter software that converts most boards to their board system, and phpBB2 is included.
So cross your fingers, and hope all goes well with the conversion at the end of the month.
Alright guys, the upgrade to vbulletin will be done Thursday to Friday. I say Thursday TO Friday because I still have to figure out how to actually use the software converter and learn the in’s and out’s of vbulletin’s backend.
I imagine the board will be down for about two days at the most and will be back up by the weekend…HOPEFULLY.
Wish me luck guys!
Good luck (crosses fingers that we don’t lose any posts!)
Awesome!!! Can’t wait
Just an update on the vbulletin boards:
Having trouble with the mysql database stuff. I’m looking into getting some help from others to see what I can do. Either I’m missing some host information or I just made an error that I haven’t figured out yet.
I was hoping to have it up by the end of this weekend since this coming week is going to be really busy for me…but I’ll try my best to get it up. I know Manny is leaving for training in a couple weeks and I’m praying everything will be up before he leaves.
I’ll have another update soon. Sorry guys.
:lol: I have no idea what a mysql database is!
Rather you than me! :lol:
