That part's already been done. Tech has also given it a complete makeover and are now putting the finishing touches on it's mani/pedi :p

So, for the posts made in the week after the migration - will we have access to them after we move to the new boards? As in, would we be able to copy-paste any posts made over to the new boards?

We're not planning on supporting that, to my knowledge. Once the switch over happens, the week of posts will be lost (hence this warning)

Any posts made after the backup is taken will not be migrated to the new site.

This is because we need to do some massaging data and config setup on the new site, but we don't have a way of porting just posts over after that's done (well, we maybe technically could, but it'd be way too much effort).

So, remind me again why we ever went to vBulletin? It was already clearly inferior in any way, and now apparently it doesn't even have a normal update function?

The update is painful because of all the convoluted crap we do behind the scenes to segment off the community structure for our [strike]nefarious[/strike] purposes. If we went the normal route, updating would be way easier.

Will the change affect the mobile site?

Well, it would be easier if it actually worked :laugh:
