It's only the Doors of Perception making y'all feel as if something is changing...when, in truth, it's always there just as before.....and as always.

Can't wait to get to use and watch everyone else use the upgrades. Been looking forward to it!

Dr. Issod?

Yes, fossil.

Will I dream?

I don't know, fossil.

:lol:

Perfect!

Brotherbart: What's going to happen?

Webmaster: Something wonderful.

Basic sched - at about 12:30 eastern time I will stop taking new member registrations and also shut down the board for a few minutes while I clean it up and export the proper files...backup.
Then I will put it back up in read-only format.

At about 1am eastern, my forum-move dude will start the import into the new system. If things go OK, I will then try to get some sleep from 2 or 3am on.
When and if I wake up......things should be coming along. I suspect that by noon at the latest, the imports will be done and the basics of the new board will be in place for me to check....I will do this behind the scenes (and may also have the mods in there......). Then I have to set all the new permissions...as to the forums and what groups can do and see.

If all of that works out, you will notice these forums are not reachable any longer and the new ones will be up in their place. Depending on luck and skill, this might be as soon as Thursday mid-afternoon or as late as 2013.....

If, on the other hand, you see these same forums up and running tomorrow night, you know something went very wrong.

Naw, that wouldn't be too bad in the scheme of things.

If I typed in www.hearth.com and this came up instead,



then I'd think things were bad :coolhmm:

The sun is coming up. The migration is having problems. Tell your techie to ask himself...

What's with the failed youtube previews? I am seeing code instead of a preview thumbnail.

I brought that up with the beta version. Thought I remembered it being fixed.

I just opened a post with it in it and in edit the youtube tags don't show up. When you just save the edit the tags are gone and the preview shows up. Hmmm...
