If your looking at the forums when it gets brought down does the screen go black with the words
GAME OVER
on it?

Would you like to play a game?

; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.* See you on the otherside Little Ones! .o/

I think they'd be more likely just to ask you to change one of the account names - it'd be way easier form them.

Possibly - though giving us more info before taking the boards down would have helped. We're only guessing at what may be possible/easier for them.

Darn...I know I'm going to bored in the next 72 hours...of course I have other forums I visit but this is one of the more frequently visited ones.
On the other hand...I might be able to level some characters because I don't have to read up on the forums
The M.A.D. Files - Me talking about games, films, games, life, games, internet and games
I'm not good at giving advice, can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?
@Lyrik
Ive decided to leave it until the last minute to just say - It's been a real pleasure watching you all go nuts over the last few years, i've had a ball guys.
So all is left to say is - see you on the other side.
- As an addition I place a tenner bet that Fulcrum will log on 2 minutes before the changeover as he does online for TF's and such. Gawd bless ya Fulcy you old fart.

Try reading through vBulletin®'s website.
As that is the new boards we are moving to, along with information on upgrading from UBB.threads
I believe it will also be the $180/year single database version. (Hence the forum merge)
And I can't see a reason listed why they couldn't sub thread Heroes and Villains into the forum Server list:
US Server x
US Server y
Defiant
+ Heroes
+ Villains
Union
+ Heroes
+ Villains
US Server z

That will be the biggest problem if they ever decide to merge US with EU servers. My US accounts have the same name as my EU accounts, wonder how they gonna do that.
Both my forum logins are same username, but different accounts, i gues thats why they need 3 day, to debug the error they keep getting on my account

Never seen FFM in RL, but purely going off the forum name I'd guess you're being highly optimistic thinking you'd get a piece of good pie off him.

Hey! I'm *always* willing to share pie, or cake, or anything else! I'm expansive in ALL things, including generosity!

Nope, nothing doing - he offered a bet, I offered cake as the reward, he said it was a lie, I offered pie as an alternative, he never got back to me on it

I have met him in RL, and I have even seen someone successfully "Float the Fatman" - but I couldn't. Then again, he is pretty generous. But no pie is safe.

According to VBulletin there is an automated conversion tool, but I think the delay will be the converted data merger and user name adjustments...
Also coming soon VBulletin V4 (I assume the forums will go down for that upgrade too.)

Just edit it with another letter or number after it, then your Euro one will be your default one when you move over.
