Somebody call my name?
The story: the site is very ill due to the software upgrade. One of the most recent symptoms is that the Cymbal Talk forum no longer allows posts and anyone trying keeps getting system messages.
The other forums work (but still poorly) for now. I started a few threads in other forums to test that, and I posted into a thread in the testing section which Jabez had started. Jabez then moved the thread into the Cymbal Talk forum, which worked...but then Jabez couldn't move it out or delete it. So my post was actually made in the Testing forum. It would be ironic if it was the last post to get into the Cymbal Talk forum.
If you followed the links on DFO to the things about vBulletin 5 you will see that it has killed a number of previously lively forums around the world. We are the latest casualty. Pretty much dead now. :(
This VDF forum continues to run on vBulletin 3.6.8 which was back well before the software rot set in...good call.
