Hey guys -
I hope all is well.
Just wanted to give you an update on the launch of the new website - which will include a new forum software that will directly impact you (in a very positive way) when discussing the Clones.
A quick recap to those who might have missed it the last time: We're being forced to switch from V-Bulletin (our current forum software) to XenForo for multiple reasons. The first is your security. The guys who invented V-Bulletin sold the company and then created XenForo. It's basically a more modern, easy-to-use V-Bulletin. When they sold V-Bulletin, updates began to staggar and it's really gone in the crapper. Security is now a risk and it's almost impossible to have a decent mobile site in V-Bulletin's current form.
So we are doing this now, and the site will be better off for it. Way better off. I could not be more excited.
And yes, Cy-Bookie will be back.
Timing update: I'm hoping for late next week and that we will be running at 100 percent efficiency on Monday the 25th, right before fall camp.
I'll post a more comprehensive preview for the new site that will include some thing you will all need to do after the transition. Really, the only thing you guys will need to do is individually opt in/out of the politics and rivals forums.
Everything else should transition pretty easily.
Any questions?
Thanks for all of your support guys. Love you all - well, most of you - like family.
