Crew,
The Forums are back
and we owe Carsten a very big thank you.
He worked tirelessly for over a week to resolve the issues created during the forum upgrade. There was a conflict between forum software versions and MySQL db versions that resulted in a messed up forum database. Yes we had backed up before starting but even so the thing was a mess.
Carsten must have the patience of a Saint as I was Blackberrying him, is that a word, from all over the place saying this or that still wasn't working right. What is even more amazing is that he understood my English, non technical rambling... and wasn't distracted by my daft ideas for a solution.
Hopefully now he can chill
