Very Important

Due to the nature of changes made in the next vbulletin version, I am going to have to close the forum at stages up to days, in order to completely rebuild the entire vbulletin system from scratch. Whilst I could just overwrite files as typical updates occur, this forum has many additions and hacks that where released prior, though have now been incorporated into vbulletin due to the sheer number of requests due to their important nature. What this means is that I can not simply remove hacks and overwrite, but I must actually remove hacks, remove all files, start all files from scratch and overwrite the database having removed any additions made to that also.

It is a large job and I cannot have any members posting upon the forum, browsing, etc whilst it occurs as the database would corrupt that way. Please be patient and expect some lengthy times where the forum is not accessible. When possible I will open it, though at times it may also only be read only until I have finished certain aspects.

Please be patient is all I can say... thanks.
