Hi Geoffy

Will you have to switch your GF Trilogy pages as well

Hi, Miggy! Nope, I already did that weeks ago. This is just a BB change.

So when is this baby due?

I'm looking at doing the switch this weekend: I'm gonna shut BOTH boards down around 3AM ET Saturday (Midnight PT Friday) and let the importer do its thing for 8-9 hours while I sleep. Then when I get up I'll fine-tune stuff that I've been working on the past couple weeks if they were lost. (And hopefully the importer doesn't hang, or my connection goes down, in the middle of the night to delay things)

If all goes smoothly, it should be up and running Saturday afternoon. If all does NOT go smoothly, it could be Saturday evening or even Sunday. (It better not interfere with football! lol)

*******************************
Anyone wishing email updates during that timeframe, please EMAIL webmaster@GangsterBB.NET me (starting now) with "Board Updates Please" as the subject, and I'll keep y'all informed on the progress!

Verrrrry exciting, JG!! Can't wait to see everything up and running!!

Anything we can do to help out? Are you going to back-up the BB before the process begins to make sure that if something weird goes down, everything will be okay?

If you need help, let me know.

Thanks for the offer, but there's really nothing anyone can do to help... except bring me drinks!

The importer won't effect the old board's data, so that's one thing we won't have to worry about. I just need to be sure everything makes it's way over to the new one.

Actually there is one thing y'all can do to help: Make sure your email addresses are valid in your profiles!

No, no... you got that backwards!!

I like this. I like highlighting a text and then pressing bold to make it bold. And I love how easy it is now to post the same lists I make for the "Rate the Director" threads on the film board...

Here.

Geoff,

Good luck with the switch. I'm glad that you are going to switch it this weekend cuz I'll be out of town going to Amish country.

BTW Did you ever figure out why we can't read the PM's in our e-mail?

They didn't carry that feature over yet... but I'm hoping they'll add it back in!

This most likely is a dumb question, but will we still be able to get to the new BB if we saved it to our favorites, or will we need to do a search and get on that way?? Know what I mean?


TIS

The new board will be accessible the same way as it is now, through this link:
http://www.GangsterBB.NET/threads/ubbthreads.php

This will work, too, but it will redirect you:
http://www.GangsterBB.NET/threads/

And once the switch is made, you can just use the normal link:
http://www.GangsterBB.NET/

After the switch, we'll all find out how well it will redirect if you already are linking to THIS board... but you're better off just changing your bookmarks to the new location probably, after the switch.

What about this board, will it really disappear, vanish into the unlimited dust of cyberspace?

Or will we still be able to take a peak at it from time to time, like revisiting an ancient Greek historical site, wondering about everything that happened on the place, who has been there?

No.

It will go into Al Gore's lockbox.

After all, he invented the internet. :p

Great new board Don Geoff, love all the extras, especially the shout box.

Had no problem logging in, though it set me back seeing a pic of Turi's arse first thing in the morning.

No.

It will go into Al Gore's lockbox.

After all, he invented the internet. :p [/b][/quote]You have a problem with Al Gore, man?

Serious :p

Don't start that crap in this thread!

*Joking*

Really, there isn't any war...besides, SC, since you seem to be ready to pounce, I doubt any sort of shenanigans would get past your watch.

I can pounce, too. :p

I don't think I like the new boards... I might become a conservative.

(Note: not meant political, do not interprete politically)

Can't be cautious enough. :p

I haven't spent enough time on the new board to either like or dislike it. Never had the patience to deal with the 'trial' stage of any upgrade.

I'll just jump in with both feet on Saturday and get familiar with it when there's nothing else to turn to.

Apple

I'm also glad I'm due to leave for Oklahoma Friday about noon, and won't be back until sometime Sunday night. Going to the Oklahoma/Colorado football game. I'll get familiar with the board when I get back.

JG, I don't know if someone asked this already, but shall we be able to edit and delete our posts on the new board?

Aww, 'joo a pussycat.

Yeah but you're just a pervert though aren't you?

But what's that have to do with anything?? :p

You brought up your dirty pouncing. Anyway, do you actually ever sleep? You're an adult now, quit leading the college lifestyle.

Of course I do!

Starting around 5AM these days. (Shut up about it being almost 7AM ET! :p )

And, I can act any age I want! Don't need another mommy. :p


'night!
