Big Updates...
so we will be upgrading to vb 3.8 late tonight......finally. there should be a lot more features for people to connect. We are also moving to new hardware. you guys have outgrown the old stuff. for you techies here are the specs on the new hardware. there will be some downtime both for the software upgrade and the hardware upgrade. its going to take a bit for the dns to update across the web.

1 Intel Xeon x3230 quad core (4 cores at 2.67ghz)
6gb of ram
RAID 10
4x drive 320 w/ hardware raid 10 (640gb usable space)

here is a look at the new profiles if you missed it last time.

Pitiful, compared to what I play with at work. Should be just fine for this site though.

Good luck on the transition, I hope everything runs smoothly.

I see rep bars. We got rid of those a while ago. Any way to do that again on the update?

There is a way, yes. It will probably be a few days before stuff like this gets fixed, though.

Woah. Loooots more features to play with now. O_O


I notice the arcade link is gone from the top blue bar now. The little icons in our short profiles alongside our posts saying which said "champion of (whichever games we were)" are gone as well.

I'm totally nitpicking here, but I liked having everything in the post profiles centered rather than left-aligned.

Obviously I missed the downtime. I haven't got in to experiment with all the features, but give me a little bit of time and I'll get there.

the downtime is still coming as we have not moved servers yet.

if you have issues with the new version, please post it here. http://www.christianguitar.org/forum...10#post3360610
