The forums will be down for maintainance starting this monday to migrate to phpBB 3, the next major release of the forums software we use around here. The migration is expected to take around a week (or longer, depending on the stability of the Release Candidate version currently offered by the phpBB group), during which the forums will not be accessible.

Due to the nature of the update, the forums will remain closed to non-staff visitors for another 7 days after the migration. During this time the staff will acquaint themselves with the new moderating options and the new board layout. We expect to return to full functionality on April 18th.

Please note that some content will not be transfered to the new forums. The content that will not be transfered includes, but is not limited to:
  • Threads in Coconut Isle, Bill and Event boards.
  • Posts under 125 characters.
  • Forum signatures and custom profile fields.
  • Post counts.
  • "Legendary", "Ultra Spammer", and "Beyond godly" ranks.
  • Usergroup-access rights.
  • Accounts whose usernames start with letters H, J, K, R, T or W.

The Administrator team wishes you a pleasant vacation on behalf of everyone here at PPT.

Haha, that'll make Werewolf interesting.

Hooray! I'm excited. I like upgrades.

Buh'bye, Kuge and WIS. You're accounts are getting zap't!

Thank goodness you posted! I almost forgot. I've added a silent Ph to the beginning of mine so my account will be safe. I hope everyone has some good books stashed away to read. :)

Oh, by the way, will user info (email, msnm, set, etc.) be deleted?

I'll need to save all that if so.

Edit:

I should really learn how to read.

Ugrade? Bah! Back in my day, we used to communicate through letters! Not through any of your fancy 'Interweb' or 'Nettubes'.

Have a good holiday y'all. This wil help I suppose, as it'll stop me from being distracted.

So I suppose we'd better end WW pretty soon then :P

Cool. I've had my name changed so I don't lose my account and post counts.


Hold onto your seats people... the SL is back.

:P I think your post count is getting flushed away into the torrent of... the mysterious, enchanted, undisturbed... graves of stuff. I don't really know where I'm going with that.

On the other hand, yay, upgrades. And Ultra Spammer, we hardly knew ye'. And Beyond Godly, we hardly knew ye'. What a sad loss. And Coconut Isle... my beloved board. Flushed away. Actually, I feel quite sad now. *sniffles slightly*

And no PPT. I don't know if I can really cope with being told that the page cannot be displayed for seven days... or whatever fancy message it chooses to tell me.

...Is this an April Fools joke, or are we upgrading to a beta version? :o

I fail to see why an "updated" version of the latest phpBB series cannot implement usernames with the first letter "H", "K", "J", etc...?

Database handled in a different way, perhaps?

Since beta 5 does include a transition from phpbb 2, I suppose it's possible it's not some elaborate hoax, especially since the next version will be RC.

Are you sure this isn't a joke? Remember the PPT version of NeoCharge last year?

And why would Kym change it over to a Beta Version instead of the RC?

Yep, especially since all the admins' usernames start with one of those letters. :P
