After spending all night unsuccessfully moving the database to a new host, I have upgraded the current software. I'm working on installing all hacks over again and installing new ones also. If not notice any problems, please contact us and we will try and take care of them.

Well, I notice that the users names no longer appear on the messages, does that quality as a problem? :)

**Drupy** · 11-17-2002, 12:35 PM

Have you noticed a problem with viewing the names of who posted a reply in the threads?

**merlin** · 11-17-2002, 12:37 PM

**Jason** · 11-17-2002, 12:38 PM

The usernames are do to the store hack which doesn't want to go back in right now, working on it though.

Drupy, care to explain, not sure I'm following.

It means which ever PMs you select with the check box and you click on backup it will bring them all to a new page where you can download them to your computer as a .html file.

What does everyone think of the new PM view? Better?

Yeah. :( It times out. The database is just over 30 megs. I've tried doing it by different tables but still no luck. I'm going to have to telnet in and save it as a file. Hopefully that will work.

Whew, I thought it was gone for good! And I just found an awesome animated "ready" Commodore 64 gif that I had made 3 years ago to use as an avatar
