Dave Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Downtime and Upgrades Hi guys. Firstly I have to apologise for the large amounts of downtime that we've been suffering, and the beta style which we've had to implement for the time being. With a bit of luck, in the next week or so we will be moving away from our current servers, so hopefully this will be the last significant period of downtime you'll have to endure. The reason for this latest downtime is twofold. Firstly, the forum software needed a security upgrade. Secondly, we've tried to re-organise the forum index in order to make it easier for you all to post. Some forums have disappeared because they were particularly unpopular. However, for the most part, they have just been moved around. Don't fear - General Discussions is still here, but at the bottom of the page. Amateur Science A new section is the amateur science section. We're hoping that it will prove to be popular; it's a place for everybody to discuss any experiment ideas they have, or maybe try to get feedback on stuff they've already done. It's not constrained to just one discipline, so if you're interested, don't be afraid to post! Anyway, I hope you enjoy the changes, and please post your comments/feedback in this thread.
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 If you have any problems with the new style, or notice any glitches, please do tell me immediately. We're still trying to iron out the bugs, but because I screwed over the old style, it's our only choice at the moment.
Dak Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 ditto "current affairs"; i take it that the name change from politics isn't intended to mean that we can't discuss general politics in that forum? e.g., a thread discussing tecnocracy would still be appropriate in that forum, even tho it's not current-affairsy?
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I believe so, although Pangloss is really the one in charge over there.
GutZ Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Your new theme is very the same but prettier... seems more modern...Good Job...I likes it.
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Two new threads for feedback, so we can keep this organized: New style feedback Forum organization feedback This thread will be closed, so all input should go to those threads or the Suggestions, Comments and Support forum.
