On punching nazis
I've decided to appease the centrists. Instead of punching nazis, we'll murder them by drone with no due process.

Trialing the upcoming new forum system
The new forum system is up and running, and we're ready to let users onto it to test it as we transition to it from this forum.

Probably best if you respond there rather than here, but I guess it doesn't matter:

Jamiet99uk (1307 D)
07 Aug 17 UTC
Well, Ghug, no. The existing forum is somewhat old fashioned but elegant in its simplicity, and certainly not broken. The new forum is very broken and most people can't log in or post on it,
Jamiet99uk (1307 D)
07 Aug 17 UTC
Is the login problem any closer to being solved by the way?
ghug (5068 D(B))
07 Aug 17 UTC
Jamie, I love the simplicity of this forum as much as the next person. Sadly, it was never built to run on the (relatively small) scale it's running on now, which creates issues on the back end. There's a reason kestas's limited development time is going here.
Jamiet99uk (1307 D)
07 Aug 17 UTC
Well that's tine.

So what's the login issue, is it easily fixable - because it appears only a few people can use the new forum.

I heard from a very reliable source that the login "issue" is absolutely fake and a way for the mods to limit who can access the new forum. If you are unable to log on, it just means that the mod team has blocked you from using the new forum.

I find it relatively unlikely that Captainmeme would be blocked in such a fashion.

To those who are saying the current forum isn't broken. I posted a rather long explanation of all the problems it causes. They are extensive and impact more then just the forum. I'll try and either find the link to my old post or explain it again sometime this week.

orathaic (1009 D(B))

Yes Jamie, the new forum has some integration problems. This is not ideal, and it will likely not be replacing the current forum until it does.

Unfortunately the current forums has serious database optimization issues and had to be culled (not so) recently to keep the site going. It just isn't able to handle the huge number of posts and threads which it built up over the years, so a decision was made and a large number of donations were solicited from the user base. You may remember this (if i'm not mistaken it was the largest donation drive in webdip history).

The results speak for themselves... And no, they're not finished yet.
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
09 Aug 17 UTC
So was the big donation drive just to pay for the phpBB license? I remember you guys had talked about developing a custom solution or something, was that deemed to be too much work?

PHPBB or vBulletin always seemed like the easy way to go, though, so probably for the best.

@chaqa, I think the plan was always to try and incorporate a forum template if possible. That was just the first required step because that part requires a lot of back-end table changes. Getting this out of the way means Kestas can go ahead with the various other planned site developments (listen to the podcast interview with Zultar for more on those).
