Forum to be upgraded
« on: 23.01. 2014 13:35 »
Sometime in the coming days (or weeks...) there will be some 'Maintenance Mode' with the forum unavailable, due to a major change of forum software. The one we're using now is based on a 10 year old system, and, among other things, one day won't be compatible with upcoming changes in server & internet standards. You may be logged out in the middle of reading or writing a post, will try to do it at a time of low activity.


Everything should go smoothly. In case of prolonged offline or (un)expected trouble, news will be posted here > https://twitter.com/a7a10forum

Thanks

Done *ex* & strangely enough (thinking of the monumental amount of data and hardware involved), we're back online, and the content seems to be there.

Some adjustments will be done over the coming days.

Thanks

So far, definitely graphically nicer, and with spell checker. Yay! To celebrate, I've temporarily chosen a new Avatar.

Ahhh, I wondered if your account had been hacked :O) Nice you like the forum stock looks. And please report any errors if encountered.

Thanks
