Upgrade

By Christmas I intend to have us on vbulletin 3.6 even if it kills me (and from the amount of changes that need to be done it just may). This is the thread for the public to discuss the upcoming upgrade of the site to vbulletin 3.6

Sweet!

Does this mean that it won't mark all threads as read if we're off site for more than an hour? Or that will at least become an option? (Like CM)

The US biscuit. Not the UK biscuit. Somewhat like a scone, but even that simple statement has been the subject of decades of debate between baked goods scholars in both the US and UK.

Anyway, I digress. Good luck!

In an attempt to make hacker's lives a little more problematic I hid the exact revision we are on by removing it from the footer (Jelsoft allows this only if you at least state you are on vBulletin 3). However, the exact version we are on is 3.0.7 (If they see this thread oh well).

Seriously, if there's a need for beta-testing (especially with Opera), or other moderately technical stuff (like "strip all the bold, italic, and underline HTML tags from this file and send it back to me"), I'd be glad to help out.
