FORUM CLOSING - time to upgrade!

[livinoffroad]

For our non-binary friends, this equals "thanks woody" and I second that.

There is a TON of work that Woody has already put into IH8MUD, but this transition takes the cake, icing, plates and the forks. If by chance you haven't joined the Silver Star gang yet, now would be a GREAT time and a extremely positive way to say THANKS to Woody for all the hard work, constant support and the invaluable information we all glean.

And for only $20 a year, It's the best value on the web.

I've been on this forum for almost 8 years...benefited greatly from all the knowledge and sharing...prolly saved thousands in repair and mod expenses, but never bought a star. With this effort of Woody's...it is incumbent upon me to do so...I just bought one


Hat's off to you Woody...you rock!!

Best of luck Woody. I do SW conversions for a living and know what it is like to have short fingernails. Can't wait to use the new tool

There are 10 types of people that understand binary. Those who do, and those who do not.

Thanks so much Woody and all the other admins and mods that make this LC heaven possible.

Woody, good luck and thanks for taking this forum to the next level!

 

[The Machinist]

Yep, that title sure got my attention!!! Glad your not jumping ship on us! haha

Looking forward to the new changes, they should make this awesome forum even better.

 

[cult45]

Dude I thought you were closing down. Don't do that s***! Cool, good luck, see you on the other side..

 

[MERSAD]

VIVA ih8mud

 

[wardriver]

Thank you!

As a systems engineer I understand the potential pain points of a major upgrade with thousands of active users.

God Speed!

sadly, they will...not initially, but they will...

But both SUCK....the old forumrunner app has been updated once in two years and doesn't support iOS7 - and the developer doesn't seem to care or respond.

TapaTalk is the current one, and is full of bugs as well. The developer is slow to make fixes and seems to spend more time on useless features.

WORSE, there are only two available options for apps.


I use a mobile browser and it works far better...definitely worth trying once the new setup is done.

Thank god, because YES tap-talk SUCKS!

 

[warezdog]

Thanks Woody, gonna be a long 30 hours going cold turkey though.

I'm already getting the shakes and DT's....

 

[ih88hi10]

It just goes to show Newer Does Not Always Mean Better.

 

[juanchogaviria]

thanks man!

 

[Dave 2000]

Oh oh!

The links in my emails have stopped working, never seen this before Woody?


I get an email, I click on the link and am directed to the site/post however, now I am getting a message pop up blocked?


Went direct to site and can see the posts but links not working from Hotmail.


regards


Dave

If the app doesn't work, what I'm I supposed to read while I'm on the pot?!

Woody, I think you freaked out quite a few people at first, me included.
I have heard of that software, and I hear it is good.
My forum still runs an older version of VB, and I really do not care for the latest version of VB.
Too many problems pop up.

 

[Florida 80]

I just freaked out a little.. The bulletin at the top of the forum made it look the the forum was closing, for good! Glad to see we're getting up to date with the 21st century

Thanks Woody!

HA! I did the same thing...almost dropped my water on the computer.

 

[WomblingFree]

Big job that.
Thanks go to you guys for your dedication in providing this fantastic asset!
