Default Re: Forum Down Time

No we are putting the forum move on hold. The problem is the move scripts that are used to move this style of board, to say any other style of board, are not perfect. There are things you have to tweak and prod and you can only do that after you export the board. You can test it all you want, but for a board this large it requires a lot of work afterwords no matter how much you are familiar with the process. There is just a lot of manual labor involved.

So for now the board move is permanently on hold as it is just not practical for a board this large. We have other alternatives we are exploring for downloads and such, but more on that in the future. The gist is the downloads will no longer be a part of the board, which is a good thing since downloads from a board are the wrong way to begin with.
