    July is when we get busy again - the last thing we want to do is test the new system when traffic is building up!

    Traffic is slowing down and this is the best time to do it. The existing forum software is getting really old and, in fact, support for it from the maker stops on April 1.

    That in itself is not a big deal, but the sooner we move and get things right, the better off our users will be. The new system has vastly improved features - especially the search. That means folks can find what they need faster and more accurately.

    It always frightens me how one character or slight setting can take this whole thing down!

    I was fiddling with something and changed one setting. I even came back and checked the forum and it was up and running...but I didn't click a link here! Luckily, BB and BG emailed me and BB called me on the phone!!

    He must have sensed that I wasn't getting my email quickly......

    Oh, well, that's the first burp of MANY.

    Well some of you could look for ways of cutting down on your pellet consumption or getting that room that never quite seems comfortable, comfortable.

    And to our Webmaster those rewrite rules can really nail your hide to the wall and totally confuse Google's system when you make a mistakey.

    Heck, they could even get romantic with their spouses - or someone else!

    They could watch a movie.......meditate, soak in a hot tub, etc.....

    Yeah, when we move to the new forum we are actually going to redirect every single thread here - from the old forum - to the same thread in the new forum! This will be needed mostly because of internal links in the forum - that is, threads here link to other threads here......and always will....I guess that means I'll have to keep those redirects in forever....

    If they get too frisky they usually result in redirection loops and most browsers and spiders start hacking up fur balls.

    Once you redirect you always redirect or go down the path of Google purgatory for missing link targets and that is a mark against a Website in the eyes of the Google.

    Heck I remember the last move. All of the old stuff disappeared. Not like this one where more than you could ever believe is going into having all of the old posts and log-ins available in the new format.

    Are there going to be problems? Bet your butt on it. Will they get fixed. Same bet. Gonna be an interesting week around here.
