Simple Machines Forum?

Hmmm... got the same message.

I think Simple Machines is the name of the forum software.

I hadn't had a chance to "green light" the IT guy yet to bring old stuff over (if it can be brought over), work once again had me doing strange things at strange hours... finally can see straight again...

Its cool, we know you are busy....and know that you are working toward getting it up and running.

Besides, you have until Christmas.

But if its not up by then....you can expect to find about a half dozen flea infested hogs in your yard (I know where you live).


Flint.

The data can surely be brought over, it's just a matter of how much work it takes to make it happen.

Don't let your IT guy tell you otherwise.

I've helped to migrate over boards where we didn't even have access to the administration section anymore, and we were able to retain all the users accounts and posts. The only things we couldn't keep were the users passwords (we had to reset them all, send out an email to each user and have them login with the new password), and users who had signed up with an invalid email address because we couldn't send the "we moved, here's how to login" email to them.

I'm looking foward to the SOCOM board finally being up. :)

I know I'm just some random internet stranger Marty, but if there's anything I can do to help with the transition you're free to PM me or email me.
