do you guys want to reread the part where I ask you not to report problems... and the part where joe says he's working on server and database stuff? :P


the bottom line is that there will be lots of errors over the next couple of days... just wait a few minutes and try again.

Holly I'm getting error messages when I try to get to the forum. Do you know about this? What should I do?

also.... most people hate change... and you all have been used to this forum for quite some time.

just warning you... things are going to be very different, as we will no longer be using phpbb. but the overall product is going to be awesome, and it's going to be very good for RM. :)

lol

eta: one word - drupal.

It's going to upgrade the forum, add some great new features, increase involvement in the larger site (not just the forum... this has been a goal of mine for AGES), fix the photo gallery, improve the ease of administration, allow me to delegate tasks, allow certain people to post articles, etc. There is also a recipe module that we can add, and a whole ton of other fun stuff. I'm having fun setting it up... though I'm not looking forward to importing the forum data...

If you have any bookmarks to the forum, please update them--where it says forum, it needs to be changed to www.runningmania.com/forum2 for now.... . The original may stop working... or it may not. I'm not sure yet. :)


It will quit working! I learned the hard way.
No one cares what I would do; therefore, I can do anything!!
