How long with the whole prune/move take from begining to end?
How long with the whole prune/move take from begining to end?
EDIT: Actually, BoB pointed something out to me I didn't consider, so hopefuly it'll be minimal
I would also like to know how long we have.
We still don't know. I'd say two weeks at the most, two days at the least... but I'm sure Cid will give a fair amount of notification. Don't forget that we'll be doing a final backup of the forums (including PM's etc) before we transfer... But personally, I feel as though everything should be over within a week. I'm not sure, though, as I don't know how long certain discussions are going to last so it's really hard to predict.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
So long as I don't come to the MB one day and see a sunndenly sparkly new empty MB with no posts or members, I'll be happy.
If all else fails, we'll IP ban you until we have a few posts made.

Of all people, I thought you'd love that outcomeSeriously.
Um, it won't take long. We're gonna run everything on the ip address they give us, including the forums, to see how it goes and then we'll move the dns over.
Probably not even 2 days, I think.
Key word being "suddenly". Honestly I was thinking about promoting a wipe of the whole MB, it'd be fun. But not unless I saw it coming. I just wanted to get my PMs backed up.
And holy crap did I spell suddenly wrong.
I wanted to wipe the whole thing... but the ff forums are a good source for people looking for information not on the site.
Also, I couldn't bring myself to delete Eyes on Each Other. Maybe all the other forums besides those.
Well if EoFF dies then I'm holding BoB hostage till you rebuild it
That would kind of add to the difficulties given that I've been a pretty key part in all of this. xD

What about money? Do you still need member contributions, and in what amount? Putting up a meter somewhere would be a good idea--Saying you need x amount of dollars per member won't do much, since you'll actually need more per contributor, given that not all members will be willing and/or able to contribute.
No.

You rock, then.
