Whats happening with the Forums.

[D-Rocks]

I mean, I bought tech-forums.org a few days ago. Hosting might get a bit expensive depending on traffic, though I think my home connection or a cheap VPS can handle the traffic this site sees. Once I get some free time I'll go about getting it set up and see what I can do about importing things.

Are you still seriously considering this? Need help? Need investor? I'll purchase Vbulletin, hardware, hosting etc.

Thoughts?

Just saying.

I received a heads-up regarding this today. Janet will be posting info on it sometime in the next day or few as she gave me a fly-over of it.

You received a heads up about what? Am i missing something here?
Are you replying to Spud1200's post?
Or is it that forum merging thing that someone was talking about?

I'm surprised anything at all is happening.
I thought this place was long dead

Hopefully moving to Xenforo

what forum are you merging with? Is that going to mean more activity here?
EDIT:And are we really moving to Xenforo?

That's what I was told.

computerforums.org. It is also owned by Social Knowledge.

Hopefully so. There is a small core of folks of CF who are fairly active.

That's the plan AFAIK

Yes. We are moving to XF. I'll post up a new thread about the details. It's a complex move and won't be without some bumps but it's a good step and we MUST leave our aging platform behind.
