The database is on the new host and so is the website. However, I'm working with support to get the forums back working again because apparently there's a MySQL error.
I'll need to upload the last few news items, but that appears to be the only thing that'll need uploading at the moment. I plan on switching the nameservers later today once the forums are functioning again. After that, I will install the new skin with one custom graphic that I've made in the short time I've had (it's a guy shooting a CPS 2000 where the old vBulletin logo went).
Tommorow I leave to go to a Boy Scout camp (Camp Airy, now Round Meadow, for those who know it). I may or may not have access to computers with internet, so don't expect me to be online at all. Spinner has complete access to everything and if there's any problems he'll handle them. Neuro hasn't been around much, but Spinner could give him the passwords and such if he needs them.
The forums will need upgraded features including the spell check we all love and the minumum post modification, so until then I will excure bad spelling to a certain extent. Also, for some reason vBulletin only has a word censor and not a word filter - all works are censored as ****. The database will also need cleaning up because a lot of HTML is filtering through where it shouldn't.
Last but most definetly not least, all of you must manually reset your password! If you don't have access to the email address you registered with, ask an admin who's online to change your email address or reset it for you.
I've been considering setting up a few people to be admins temporarily to help with the password and configuration issues also, so if you're interested please post about it here. Remember, this is a JOB - you must actually do work, not just sit around and go "I'm an admininistrator!"
