Wanted to let eveyone know I'll have to take the forum down for the next update. The update is a big one. We'll probably be down for several hours, at least that is how long it has taken in update test runs.
You will not notice any real changes. The main difference you will see is emojis from phones will show on the forum and you will have the same phone emojis available for post. Most of the update is internal, which includes a database conversion. (That's the biggest part). This update will bring us up to date with language and the newest security protocols.
I think I will attempt the update sometime on Friday, January 24th. I will post an announcement ahead of time to give you heads up before I take it offline and I'll post the time taken down in the message you receive when the forum is unavailable so you will have an idea when to expect us back online. I am estimating about 3 hours to complete.
