Blackstar Closing for Upgrades...sometime soon

[LordPsycho]

Alright, got the huge backlog of stuff around the house done (for now), I can start working on upgrading Blackstar to phpbb3. The Longest part of this upgrade will be updating the theme we use here for use with phpbb3, and I plan to do that before shutting down Blackstar.

However, once I do that, I'll need to shut down blackstar while I backup the database, download it to my linux box, do the stuff needed to have the old database work with phpbb3, upload the new database, and do whatever modifications I plan on doing to phpbb3 to make it more Blackstar worthy. I don't think it will need to be shut down for more than a few days at most, more than likely I'll just pull an all-nighter and get everything done in one day or so. But I thought I should give you some warning as to what's going on. I'll have more updates and more specifics as I get to work on the theme.

Thanks,
LP

Fantastic news LP! Though you don't need to go and pull an all-nighter or anything to get it done, it seems like a few days of downtime would be less stressful for you and your health, and I'm sure that we'll all find ourselves able to deal with it.

I look forward to seeing a brand new Blackstar in action.

(Also, 3kul is the greatest.)

My sentiments exactly.

Ditto what 3kul said, I guess.

Roll on the dittos

This seems like as good a time as any to go back and edit my post to say something highly controversial, then quote you all as having agreed with me... But instead I decided to go with something immature and pointless, oh well

[Zerrer]

I agree with all of the above.
