To all the members out there who are having fears about this, let me tell you this: I know absolutely squat about coding. v5 seemed a little intimidating to me at first, but I quickly figured it out. Many in the support board were very quick and very accommodating when I had questions. You'll all be fine. If I can do it, so can you. I'm a 48 year old who doesn't even own a cell phone. C'mon, you all certainly already have an edge on me.

Well said!

Uhm... ...technology in general has an IQ of two [on and off], and I find that smartphones aren't all that smart, they come with a lot of bugs and issues that one simply cannot solve.
EDIT: Also, release day means very little to me, no offense to it. >w>;

Enjoyed reading your post.
v5 for me is a real pleasure to use and the video posted was also very helpful too.
100% agree with you about how quickly questions are answered here and yes, very accommodating as well.
The tips for the codes here at the support board are also very helpful as well.

how do i opt out of the upgrade? I'm actually a happy v5 member and LOVE IT!

But.. I'm using proboards for a school project and don't want to mess up my site before my final project is due! I'll probably cry and I won't have time/energy/motivation to work out v5 kinks before it's due

edit;; I also want to show my prof the codes.. she can hardly check her email so I'm hoping to get extra points for all the codes

So starting tomorrow until X all boards will be down? Or just one at a time? Just kind-of a curious thing.

To my knowledge, all forums will be added to the conversion queue. Just like early upgrades, forums will only go down when they are being converted (usually no more than a few minutes).

So basically the Board will be up, but forums down? Okay, it kinda makes sense. Thanks.

Boards/Forums are the same.

The forum will only be down, when the converter has reached it, and only then will it be down. Once the converter is done with the forum, the forum will be back open.
