    Hey guys

    The plan is to upgrade this forum to vBulletin 4 this Friday.
    I can't say how long it will be down for, hopefully not too long but at the very least it will be 1-2 hours or so. I will probably start around 8:30 friday morning.

    My internet connection from work is muuuuuch faster than my one from home, which currently is my cellphone because I just moved house.

    Ok it's kinda over as in you can use the forum again. Still got some stuff to change/fix etc. Just ignore any funny bits for a few days.

    At least you fairly new to the form. Imagine how us oldies are struggling to get use to it. Been fiddling on it since last week, and still don't have the entire hang of it.

    Thanks a lot Rory. :p

    Damn I better get right on that then!

    Mentioned/tagged is basically a social thing kind of like Twitter.
    To "tag" someone in a post just put an @ and then type their username.

    eg.

    I bought this big oscar from @Rory and now all my guppies are gone!

    You will also see on your profile that you have a "mentions" tab that shows when you are mentioned.

    Larch, if you're out there try again now?

    Hi Rory, I really like the new look. It seems like the pages are loading much faster now.
    Keep up the good work.
