We're aiming to get them up and running by tomorrow afternoon, so expect some weirdness on the forums until then.

Question: are tthe old 22Cans Support board threads available for viewing, or have they been archived and removed? I had some really good threads on there that i'd like to review and maybe repost to godus.boards.

I had some really good threads on there that i'd like to review and maybe repost to godus.boards. Everything from the old forums will still be accessible, with one exception - we've carried all the posts across apart from those in the Alpha section of the forum, which was proving too much for our database to handle as part of the merge.

But those were the best posts! Can you have someone export that part of the database so we can have a look if we can import them here?

I'm not sure how compatible phpBB is with VB, though.

I'm not sure how compatible phpBB is with VB, though. I'm a tenacious SOB, I might do it manually if I had to. Don't know. All I know is it'd be a waste if all that history would be lost.

At the very least you could try to keep the alpha section of the old forum up as it was and give it a new URL. I think.

Correct me if I'm wrong & just missing it, but it doesn't appear to be possible to search for posts anymore on the updated forums.
