As noted in an earlier post we have migrated to the new server with the same vbulletin version and once stabilised (and tested on the old server) this one will be upgraded to 3.5.8 and then 3.8.6

Cheers

Look right at the bottom of the page, it shows the version.

At this time it is still 3.03.

I do not envy Russ this, there are HUGE differences between the incumbent and 3.86.

So if you want to beat em, ya gotta join em, and being manual makes the time even more credible.

Right, I see.

I'll have to pay more attention next time.

Thanks again Russ. I have no idea what work must be involved to run a forum the size of AFF.

Top effort, my question is, will the rep points be turned back on... I like the idea of handing points to those worthy of such honor

I think they've pretty well gone for good now. Pity, but some people were getting really would up about it.

I'm still happy to use the forum without them.

They are indeed. Once we are at 3.5.8 we will trial an alternative that simply uses thanks without displaying it anywhere else except on the post and in the usercp.

Cheers

All those scripts are still retained and operating. We are currently testing the 3.5.8 upgrade on the old server (not without a few issues) and once that is beeded down then this one can be upgraded.

Cheers
Russ
