Forum Upgrade Complete | mrsmiley { September 21, 2007 }

I'm currently performing a major forum upgrade. I'm hoping to have things back online in the next 24 hours. Keep in mind that I'm getting married TOMORROW. So I have a slight deadline! ;)

Sorry for the inconvenience!

NOTE TO ALL HBN FORUM STAFF: Check your email. I sent a message to address you used when you registered with the new forum beta.

[this post will be updated as the upgrade progresses]

update 1: i'm currently backing up the entire forum. this includes every image that has been uploaded since the forum began! also includes 250MB of SQL databases.

update 2: i finished backing up the entire forum files and databases (all 2.5GB of them). i'm currently uploading the new forum files. i have the wedding rehearsal in 30 minutes. hopefully i can have the forum installed at at least functional by then.

update 3:new forum is installed! now in the process of converting the old databases (you know, so you won't have to remake your accounts, your posts will still be there, etc). won't be able to finish this till after the rehearsal, so stay tuned!

update 4i'm currently on the final step to switching everything over. the forum is installed, and all (or at least most) of the members and posts have transferred over successfully. at the moment i am indexing every single post for the new forum search feature. remember the search "feature" of the original forum? yeah, it sucked. this one actually works. almost done here folks (if anyone is actually reading this).

THE NEW FORUM IS UP!!! Keep in mind that this is "phase 1", as in, no pretty customer artwork and other cool things. But it's up, and it's very familiar, yet there is much to discover! Please see this thread for more info. Enjoy!

***IF YOU CAN'T LOGIN***
Some of the passwords didn't transfer over properly. If you can't login, use the "I forgot my password" feature to reset it. No worries.

Не плохой форум, но очень часто сообщения находятся без ответа.

Или его просто удаляют.

Вот собрался обшить сайдингом дом на даче, но выбор производителей огромный! Кто может сталкивался? Какой сайдинг лучше? И где лучше покупать, чтоб не обдурили(я ж не разбираюсь, втюхают еще фигни какой-нить) и подешевле?
Буду благодарен за комментарии. Спасибо.

I have been looking for the REAL [b]Uncensored Community[/b] to join and be able to speak my mind without [b]repercussions[/b], share couple of dirty jokes, or maybe even get involved in unbent political discussion.
After many, many attempts I had to give up, as majority of sites have strict rules that you have to obey, or you will get "[b]banned[/b]" and those rules are usually made up by some geek who hasn't seen the world or is too scared to be challenged in a real discussion.
Other sites advertise to be "[b]uncensored[/b]" but as soon as you post something [b]controversial[/b] your post is deleted without explanation or warning within hours-days.
I got really tired of all this BS and so I said to myself:
Why not create your own site where everyone can speak their mind, regardless of the points of view they have without fear, where people can actually choose ANY topic and discuss it. Where you can truly post [b]anonymously[/b], be that replying to a specific topic or even post a new one.

I am not going to post a link here, I challenge you to visit Google or Yahoo or MSN or even Altavista and search for : "[b]Off-Topic Community[/b]" the first listing would be our site.
So join the thousands of people, tired of rules and repercussions and enjoy your Internet experience for a change.

Regards.

With the slowing economy and rising prices, there's lots talk about how businesses can cut back and save money. Many small businesses are folding and the ones that are not folding are still feeling the pain. However, in the midst of all this doom and gloom, there is a way that small businesses can not only survive but thrive in any economy. Instead of talking about how small businesses can cut back and save money, let's talk about how small businesses can make a lot more money.

Hi i plan to setup a messageboard on my site, i've done some research for some info about it and i suppose that it won't be a problem to do it. But while i researched i've found that most bbs' are abused with swarms of spam. So the question is: what measures are to apply to avoid it? Any help will be appreciated.
