[ny state land]

Just curious but I am noticing that the post count for many are much lower than actual since the upgrade?

[Ruben]

It had to do with the conversion

I have lost more than 2000 but there is more than that in this site

I feel your pain!
But it is what it is.
It could not be avoided.

I was wondering about that,I lost around 2000 posts myself?

[Kevin Lawler]

I just noticed that. I have been on this site for 15 years and only have 171 posts?

 All that's pretty much trivial if that's all that was lost that's great the main thing is the information came across....
We knew there were going to be some glitches and hiccups but we got the majority of the post with the library of information moved ....so don't worry about post count just make some more I don't even know what mine was and I don't care all I know is it a lot of post would  have been lost forever  along with your post count  but ....Millions have been moved so I couldn't  care less about what my post count  is..... go make some more memories guys

it's probably worth repeating that we've been trying to move to a new and better platform for over a decade ... more than ten years of trying to shed this old and tired camp and getting nowhere from a host of forum software vendors, all who basically told us it couldn't be done after they actually tried to convert and failed; they all said that trad gang is just too large a forum.  enter mr. ruben, who with his special expertise proved them all wrong.  we would NOT be here today without a LOT of hard work effort by ruben.  we owe him a tremendous vote of thanks at the very least.

Rob I remember we had a long conversation about that same issue several months back...and about having done "everything" yet nothing was working.

Thank You Ruben - I'm glad you showed up!   

[Ruben]

Thank you both for the compliments.
I just hope you enjoy the new forum features and enhancements.

Roy..I was hopin you would show up with that star....

...that sez it all!

[Ruben]

To Funny
But lets not also forget Terry for investing the extra funds for a new KickButt server, That supports  all the changes and enhancements.
And Rob for all the time he invested in the settings to make this all possible.
While I was working on the conversion he was working on the setup and continues to work on it.
While I get to just sit back and observe now .
