..we who wander the wastes, in search of our better selves? Merits/detractors/discussion of building anew on this board vs. trying to save/repair the old one? I don't know squat about how or what it would take to fix the old site, but I'd rather stay there if it was feasible to keep it. Lots of history there.

What happened to the old board, anyways? And how many of us are even going to migrate over here. Every time we migrate, we lose members.

The old bard succumbed to ancient architecture... I suspect. I've migrated. We'll keep some, lose some, get some new ones, the cycle of message board life.

The issue with the old board is it's vBulletin 4 which hasn't been supported for nearly a decade now. So all those little bugs and issues are hard to resolve, and it gets worse over time.

The idea as I take it is to migrate here, shutter the old place and archive it. As I said on Facebook, I'm all in for that.
And as I mentioned there, you need a mod, I'll keep on spambusting.

I'm all for letting the old pile of code settle in on itself like the slag under Chernobyl and idle away forever. So long as I can get in to rip the Mists pbp, of course. As for here, perfectly happy so long as there's an option for a different theme(s). I'm not a fan of then puke brown and tan.
Beggars and choosers and all that.

Otherwise, I am fine with a new board, if the old one can't really be saved. Woudn't mind a better theme, tough.

Hey, at least we can post here without waiting for a hundred thousand plus seconds to do so. Lol.

Heh. That's what it was the last time I tried. around 100k and change. I kinda figured it was broken. Last week I was on vacation, so I wasn't looking real hard for a replacement site to go to.

I had 430 days I think and now I can't remember the remark I wanted to post on "What makes chili peppers hot?"
