I think you added an extraneous NOT by accident
For those of you into forum technology and the like, we're migrating away from OpenTopic, towards UBB.x. Those of you who have been with us for a long time likely recall that we once ran the forum on UBB. This new version is light-years away from those olden times (yes, ly is not a measure of distance, I know), and owing to a number of factors, it's more suitable to what Ars needs to grow even more. In any case, the dedicated database server plus the front-end web servers are ready to go, primed with 8GB of RAM and plenty of processing love. We'll have more info as the new forum gets ready to launch.

Agent Smith was right!: "I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell! If there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it."
Isn't moving from OpenTopic to UBB.x. a step down the forum software scale? I thought that OpenTopic was the ultimate forum software there is?
Hmmm....
WTF does this place use? Cause I know a boatload of sites that use it....
Ars always had that white on white thing (and yes I know that's stylve vs programming), but I hope they ditch it for something a bit more eye friendly.

I didn't want to assume

Not for me.
I can't see the Free-DC logo when I am on the forum, any of the other stuff at the bottom, below the key to the status of a post.....
So, what does this place use?
Right below your post..bottom of page.

How come you cannot see the logo at the top?
One of the Free-DC themes (IIRC, it's Free-DC NXG, or something of the like) has no logo, or any buttons that you can click on to change your theme back...
Is it okay that I browse around a bit here while it's down?
Sure
Help yourself to a beer from IB's fridge
/me pass pointwood a cold one from the fridge.
IB, you need more salsa in the fridge!
now I remember why I changed to the other theme....
The text box for this one is huge....
It makes me have to side-scroll on my 15" monitor @ 800x600.
/me wishes *hint* for a theme like this one, including all the buttons and whatnot, but with a smaller text box.
hint, hint,.....
Thx - now our forum is up again...sorta
Although I don't see any graphical changes to the layout/template, I am sure the backend has been enhanced significantly.Originally posted by pointwood
