There is some prep work for tomorrow being carried out at the moment so expect some slowness or blips!

A reminder of the above, and also a sneaky test post following some prep work

Final bump for the evening that the forum upgrade is full steam ahead for tomorrow.

As I mentioned Matt has been doing some things in the background today, one of those being migrating the old Article system to a new system. You can see from the stats below that they have brought a large number of visitors to the site over the years, one article has had 36k+ views alone. So it was a big thing that we retain those.

So as it stands we are prepped on the latest version of XenForo 1.x, and ready for the main upgrade tomorrow

See you all on the flip side
