Hot Topic We're back - Now the fun begins

[Jeff Westover]

I apologize for the extended upgrade time. This was really a lot of fun, but I think we're back.

Now - here's what you should know.

1. New server! The site is on a newer, faster server. Hopefully you notice that.
2. Updated Scripts! We have upgraded all scripts, notably for the sake of security.
3. We're not done. The past two days have been about just getting us moved and back in business. Much more to do.
4. What's new? I'm not sure. I haven't gone through all the new options. I just wanted to get back in business.
5. What's next?

- Test functionality. If you see something, please say something. Whether it's new, good or bad, etc.
- Forum clean-up. We'll be removing some old threads, adding new ones. Normal general clean up.
- Cosmetic stuff. With a major upgrade some things will not work due to outdated theme stuff. Normal.

We can work on all the tweaking while remaining open. I hope you will use this thread to share what you observe, how you want things to change/improve, and to lend your ideas and voice to the cause of making the Merry Forums better.

The goal is to be set by about the middle of May.

Thanks for your patience and ongoing support.

Jeff,

I just hope you know how much I have appreciated your work since I started coming here regularly in 2009. It isn't lost on me the amount of time you have spent adding to the site and maintaining it.

Thank you.
