General Announcements

Just fyi, gang, there's a new subforum (under "Gear") dedicated to Home Theater stuff here.

Finally added one of the more common requests I get - a dark theme - hit the "change theme" link at the bottom of the page and choose the "Infinite Dark" option. After changing the theme if you look at the little button next to the "gallery" button at the top you can change the color to your liking.

I'll be doing an update to the forum software starting at approximately 4PM EST today. This is a pretty large change, as search is completely redone and the traditional view new content functionality has been replaced as well. Other notable changes include the menu structure and an updated version of the WYSIWYG editor that should work better on mobile browsers.

Just a quick hello to everyone as I just finished setting up an account FINALLY. No newbie, over 35 years in retail audio. My ID I have used for years. Best Regards to everyone ESL-1

Rather than ban users, I think a nice topic to keep track of who's being an asshat is appropriate.

The site will be down for an extended period of time (at least a few hours) sometime during the following time frame: Friday, February 9, 2007 9:00pm - 5:00am MST. Our hosting provider is moving into a new data center facility and will be physically moving the server at some point during the previously listed time frame.

Hey guys, I built a custom search index tonight it should make vast improvements in the quality of search results. Searching should be a little faster too.

Doing some work on the site today so there will be periods where it's down. Edit: Server move and forum software update have been completed now. The search index has to re-index so it'll be a few hours before that's working normally again.

I did some maintenance to the server today, that included some DNS changes. If you see the following in your browsers address bar: http://72.18.146.20/ then either your ISP or your computer is caching the old DNS entries. If your running Windows try opening up a command window and running ipconfig/flushdns and that should clear out any cached dns entries. If that doesn't work you may have to reboot your computer.

I moved the site over to it's new server tonight, total downtime was roughly an hour or so. I still have to re-link the user albums and there might be some issues with old attachments but I'm working on that. Otherwise everything else should be working ok, let me know if you find anything that's not.

Ok guys, we have a small decision to make here, for some reason during the day today something went wrong in the database that broke the user-readable url functionality. I've been able to switch to a backup from roughly 7am this morning. Which means we've lost all posts from later in the day.

Hey guys, please don't quote or respond to spam in any way -- just gives us more posts to delete. Just report it. Thanks.

Sorry about the brief outage today guys, had to make some emergency repairs to the database, one of the main tables was corrupting itself. It should be all fixed now.

The update to 4.0.8 didn't go smoothly today, the styling on the bottom section (who's online) etc is currently broken. Working on fixing it now, PM me if you notice anything else wrong.

I upgraded the forums to vBulletin 3.8 today please let me know if you find any problems.

Is this the new format? I just learned the old! Is the ****** displayed?

Just noticed this little rocket tag. Wondering what it's about.
