This forum upgrade is STILL IN PROGRESS. I know there is a lot of stuff missing, but nothing has been permanently deleted.
Please report anything odd that isn't already on my list so I can look into it.
Missing:
Polls
Smilies
Profile fields: birthdate, location, enneagram
some avatars still missing - fixed
Issues:
formatting issues with code differences (quotes and such) - fixed
some members who had different display names aren't connected to all of their old posts - fixed
Resolved/Fixed:
Private Messages will not be restored. Instead, you can access all of your old private messages here: http://totalobliterationproductions.com/intjforum/
Do not respond or start new private messages there! I will eventually take that site offline once everyone has had a chance to get what they want from there.

Yay! Woo-hoo! I like the new format!
However, I was unable to figure out how it wanted me to login. I tried several different ways and failed.
I used to sign in as The(space)Rose. I tried it without and with an underscore. I tried it with capitalized T and R and without. I can't seem to figure out what it wants.
But thank you for the new format. I am going to be especially thankful for the "go to first new post" feature in my subscribed threads.

I found out in another thread that I had to request to reset my password.

I'm a little disappointed that I'm not a "Founding Member" anymore.
Is that temporary?

User CP -> Edit Profile -> Put "Founding Member" in the profile text box :)

You guys don't have to though... I'm going to restore this group.

Don't worry Paul (and everyone else missing posts), we're working on that. :smiley:

I'd just like to thank Jez for all the work she's put into this, this sort of thing is never easy and she seems right on top of everything. Props to her.
And it has the added advantage of outmaneuvering the pod Jezebel and the alien space bats.
Props to the mods as well. I'm pretty sure they aren't sitting on their hands either.

Oh, ok!
Thanks Jezebel, the new site looks really amazing!
I felt terrible for you when you disconnected yesterday. The same thing happened to me before.

Thanks... the mods got to slack this time around because we're trying to apply most fixes directly to the database. (Not that the mods aren't incredibly helpful when I ask them to be :lovestruck: )
If you're looking for someone else to thank though, I can't take all the credit. Goatmeal (http://intjforum.com/member.php?u=131) has been a tremendous help during this and the forum wouldn't look nearly as good as it does without his fixes.

I lost my Ignore List.
Should I just go ahead and start over?
I can't remember how many were on it or who they were.

The old forum used a completely different system to ignore members, so it could not be imported. If you need to log into your old account to see your settings, go here: http://totalobliterationproductions.com/intjforum/YaBB.pl
Your login should work, but you won't be able to make any posts.

Thanks. There was only one person on my ignore list. I must be getting this board mixed up with another.

I'm running into random posts where the text is HUGE, although sometimes it looks intentional... but I'm pretty sure some like the Online Tests Directory isn't...
edit: "Report Post". Gotcha.
