As mentioned earlier, I am closing the site for an hour or so this evening to perform the upgrade to CF v5.0. Please make sure to check back later this evening or early tomorrow. Update - The upgrade is finished for the most part. I will be working on a few smaller things but the major upgrade has been successfully completed.
Almost all of the big changes on the front-end are currently turned off for testing purposes to make sure all the structural changes aren't going to cause any problems. After a couple days of watching the server I'll activate them slowly.
Right now the visual changes that you will notice will be image attachments that view in a lightbox when you click on them, the new user control panel views and the speed increase.

A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player. |

There was a LOT of database work that went in to this upgrade  I've been working on this for 3-4 solid months now.

So far it is work well done. I posted an event just now, normally it takes about 20 seconds to actually submit for me. This posted in about 2 seconds.

Jeremy,
It started blocking access to Cyclonefanatic at work starting today. It's saying it is blocking it because it is a forum/game website.
Am I going to have to go through detox or is there a way for me to get around it? Is there a back door somehow?

Very nice work. I already have 1 friend. That's more than I have in real life.

Call me stupid, but I can't tell a difference.
Must all be "behind the scenes" improvements.

Right now the visual changes that you will notice will be image attachments that view in a lightbox when you click on them, the new user control panel views and the speed increase.

Is it because I posted that LAG issue last week that you made the changes? Yep, it's all because of me guys. Can I get my cookie now?
