I may attempt to upgrade the forums to the 4.0+ version this weekend. If it doesn't work, I'll roll it back to the current version. So, if by Sunday, things haven't changed, you'll know it went as well as Rosco trying to perform the same jump the Duke boys did.
-
Ok, thanks. I'll fix that when I get home from work tonight. I think editing is only available for 10 minutes. I'll bump that up to an hour.

On June 6th &7th, John, Tom, Rick, Sonny, and Tom Sarmento will be at the Fleetwood Country Cruize-In in London, Ontario, Canada. Check out the website for more info: http://www.fleetwoodcountrycruizein.com/ -
I upgraded the forums to 3.4.8. Let me know if any of you experience any anomalies.
-
I suppose that qualifies as "musical". LOL.
-
Yes, all warning points will be torn up if you perform a free concert at the Boar's Nest. If you have no musical talent, you can wash dishes in the back.
-
Welcome! I hope you will continue to participate. I understood your English just fine and we have many members here from around the world that speak many different languages. James Best was my favorite too. I love Rosco, if you couldn't tell.
-
Of the choices, I think I liked Luke the best. He was the brains. I always seem to go for the brains.
-
Oh yes. As he says, it wasn't personal. He really enjoyed the chase. It was a game to him and to the boys too.
-
So, here's a question: What other character would you have liked to see get the Jekyll and Hyde treatment? I, for one, would have loved to see it with Rosco.
-
Sorry, Rog. You'll have to try harder. I mean, all of us like to insult RogerDuke from time to time. It's pretty common really.
-
LOL, Rog! Since I'm pretty easy going, you'd have to get in a mess of trouble before I started handing out warning points. It's mostly for bad language, insulting people (maliciously, not friendly banter), and general un-Duke-like behavior.
-
I didn't care for either movie, but if I had to pick, I'd say the 2007 movie was better. Welcome aboard, Lucas_Duke95!
-
Well, the upgrade didn't go well. There are still some issues that will keep me from upgrading to the current version. I'll wait until the next version comes out and try again. I have no idea when that will be.
-
I will be upgrading the forums to 4.0 sometime this week, hopefully today. The forums will be locked during the upgrade. I'm not sure how long it will take, so I'll say at least overnight.
-
One of the little projects I'm working on for the new forums is a Dukes of Hazzard Anniversary calendar that will display notable events in the Dukes history, like debuts of certain episodes, birthdays of the cast & crew, etc. If any of you have ideas pertaining to this project, feel free to post about them here. I have lots of fun stuff in the works and this is just one of them!

Most of the problems with sigs had to do with accounts that had images. I think most of the regulars came through unscathed, but I know there are some accounts with sig problems. I think most avatars came through ok too. There are a few little quirks I'm finding here and there and fixing them as I go along. If any of you find any issues, let me know in this thread. One new cool feature is that you can see a notice on the chat tab in the forum navigation bar that shows how many people are in the chatroom. Pretty neat. Hopefully that wil get people using it more. If we get to the point where we regularly have more than 5 people wanting to use it, I'll upgrade to a larger room.
-
Well, I thought I hadn't, but I have. For those of you who haven't, here's a link to it on YouTube. http://youtu.be/Wa1ixjwMSSk

Yeah, the white might take some getting used to. Not sure if I'll keep it that way or not, but it does make things a bit more readable, doesn't it? When I upgrade the board to 4.0, I might switch things up again. I had a great skin I'd created for 4.0 that used the dark background. Unfortunately, I found too many issues with 4.0 at the moment, the biggest of which was not interpreting BBCode correctly. I really didn't feel like going through and updating 4000 posts to fix the BBCode. (I know, I'm lazy. LOL!) And I couldn't find a resolution on the IP community forum. So, until the next 4.X release and I get adventurous enough to do so, we're using a slightly earlier version. At any rate, that's the reason the upgrade took too long. The first migration to 4.0 revealed the BBCode issue, so I started over and migrated to 3.4.7. That migration went well, but I found a bug in the moderation tools (which I found out later had a workaround). So, hopeful that a successful migration to an earlier version would fix the BBCode problem in 4.0, I upgraded, only to find the issue still there. UGH. So, I started over and went back to 3.4.7. LOL. Not exactly a smooth transition, but I think things are mostly working now. In the next few weeks, I'll probably open tickets with IP to address some of the issues I've found, but for the meantime, enjoy the new forums!

The Duke family lives in Hazzard County, Georgia, where they run a farm and always find themselves at odds with the corrupt local government. Their patriarch, Jesse Duke, is a former moonshiner known for his wisdom and integrity—probably the most respected man in six counties. After raising his orphaned nephews, Bo and Luke Duke, and niece, Daisy Duke, Jesse gave up moonshining to keep the boys out of prison after they were caught on a run. As part of their probation, Bo and Luke can’t carry firearms or leave Hazzard County, but that doesn’t stop them from stirring up trouble—especially when it comes to fighting corruption. They help run the farm, drive around in their souped-up orange Dodge Charger, the General Lee, and take every opportunity to outsmart Hazzard’s crooked officials. Daisy works as a waitress at the Boar’s Nest, the most popular bar in town, owned by the greedy and scheming Boss Jefferson Davis "J.D." Hogg. Boss Hogg controls nearly everything in Hazzard, including Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane, who was once a respected lawman but turned crooked after losing most of his pension in a failed bond election. Now, Boss is smuggling illegal slot machines into Hazzard, planning to distribute them through Rosco. After hijacking the shipment, Bo and Luke come up with a plan to distribute the slot machines themselves—not for personal gain, but to help the community. They arrange for civic clubs and organizations to use the machines, donating the proceeds to fund renovations for the local orphanage, which is on the verge of being shut down by the health department. -
I have finished migrating to the new forum software. Welcome to the new forums. Excuse the dust as I get some of the kinks out and continue to tweak the look and feel. Not everything tranferred as smoothly as I'd hoped, so you may have to re-do signature pics or avatars. If you find any anomalies, please PM me or post here about them so I can investigate. Thanks!
-
I am now the proud owner of new forum software. There will likely be downtime tonight. I'll post a notice at least an hour before I start the migration (probably around 8pm PST) and will be locking the board once it starts.
-
I think I've settled on IP.Board. There will be downtime this weekend as I install and migrate the old board. I'll post a notice and lock the board when the migration is going on (probably late Friday night).
