Hello hello!
I'm very happy to see this wonderful site is back up on it's feet with threads starting and all those pesky little characters running around! I have to say, I'm surprised by how quickly the old ones have come back and the new ones have joined us, there's a good lot of us and it hasn't even been a whole two weeks! Of course, I'm looking forward to more joining us and more writerly insanity around here. xD
To the point of this announcement, Proboards has finally announced a release date for v5! -cue applause- From January 28th everyone with a PB forum will be able to convert from v4.5 to v5. On April 29th every single PB forum that hasn't already been converted will upgrade automatically. I've been really excited about v5 and I've been playing around on my betazone for a while trying to get used to it (although I have to say making skins is so different).
Now, they're having a contest to give forums even earlier access to v5. They're making it possible for forums to upgrade as early as January 16th. That's like 18 days away! Currently, our forum will be able to upgrade on the 24th (a lot thanks to the age of this site) but I highly doubt I'll have everything ready by then anyway to upgrade. We can earn more points in the hope of winning ad-free though, if anyone is interested I can post the ways you all can help gain points.
I'm excited about v5, I know a lot of people are. Some aren't but I'm hoping you all won't be worried and are thinking positively about the changes. Once I start to get my betazone looking right, I'll let people have a look around and give an opinion and such before we upgrade. (: So, post here with your thoughts and let me know if you're interested in trying to win some ad-free for our lovely little site!
