Board and Server update coming - details inside - ongoing

[HNIC]

This message is to inform members that I'm about to upgrade the board software platform and upgrade the BGOL servers.

I'm giving myself 30 days to get this mission complete. We have over 10 years of content that needs to be moved and I
want to make sure I don't screw it up.

It is just the right time to do so. I'm actually piggy backing off TEN's How YOU would make BGOL perfect thread. Most of the
complaints such as search, notification of post being replied to and a like feature can be solved with a board upgrade.

I'm going to change the board platform to xenforo.com, Xenforo was started by the original coders of Vbulletin.

This will be an ongoing thread that I will update as I work towards getting the update complete.

I'll answer all reasonable questions.

Thanks - HNIC

i cant reply to tens thread anymore

but a few suggestions

when you get quoted or somebody mentions your name like @benq you get an alert , not a popup that would be annoying , but a number in a badge icon somewhere on top
reddit has this


and maybe being able to downvote or upvote comments, the downvoted comments become hidden until you click on it to see, i don't care much about this one , but something to consider

 

[HNIC]

I think the @benq alert is part of the software package, but I'll know more in a few days. I'm about to do a test install on another domain over the weekend.

Glad to here an update is on the way.
As a contributor to posting porn i wonder if there is anyway insure those those threads dont get lost in the shuffle (post to see hiden comment functionality )

Nonetheless looking forward to the upgrades.

I stick with my original assessment in TEN's thread about being able to vote people out of here.

Would be nice to get back to some level of quality around here.

Great. I wonder if my comment earlier today (in A.S.A.P Savages post) was one of the many contributing factors to this?

You gotta change sometime but I don't favor it. The layout is classic. The search is my only complaint.
