Yesterday the 25th server (the one we're on) was updating. From what I saw the site was down all day. Well I log on today expecting to see the upgrade finished and having new admin abilities and other new board features. Instead there is a message saying that the forum will be upgraded within the next 24 hours. I don't know why. Maybe the upgrade didn't work well yesterday or something and it needs up be upgraded again? Well I guess we will find out within the next day or two.

It doesn't make sense. Something must have gone wrong. Got the same message, and lack of V4, on the battlebaka.

I've seen some other forums that got the V4 upgrade. I see that one new feature is a "Karma" system. Should be an interesting new feature. Just remember don't go and abuse the new system. You wouldn't want to anger your god, Kidgame. He can get real mad and destroy you.

1) no idea. 2) be glad you're on 25. my forum's on the effing 49th server. that is going to be annoying. 3) if you want to see some of the upgrades lifebaka.proboards7.com is already upgraded. i messed around with the quick message thing already.

I've activated the karma system there. Try it out a little.
The karma systems lets you rank other members according to how nice/good/bad/fun/anything else they are. I have no idea how the ratings look, so don't ask.

Yes! Finally the upgrade is complete. I checked around 5 pm eastern time and it was not done. I just checked now around 10:10 pm and lo and behold the upgrade is complete! We are now running on proboards V4. I checked my admin theres not really that much new stuff. The board definitely looks different a bit. There is a lot of stuff that is new just look everywheres on the site. One thing though is that EVERYONE needs to activate their accounts again. It doesn't matter if you are already a member, when you enter your name and password the server sends a message to your email. It has an activation code which you have to use in order to activate your account. You only need to do this once then you are back on and everything will work fine. This is nothing I put up. I guess this is how the new server is set up to work- you need to activate your accounts but hopefully thats not a problem. If so just leave a message in the tag board and I'll see what I can do. Not sure but there may be a may for me to activate peoples accounts.

It finished around 10. I checked about 8:30. So, between 9 and 10 it is. Yeah, the reactivation is annoying. I've already done it twice, and this makes it four times. Oh, and it does let your change your e-mail for the activation, in case the one you put in is out of date.

Yeah I noticed that option. It's good in case you don't use that email. Or if your email account is on a website and that website discontinues email support or shuts down then you can change it. Though even if you change it, you still have to activate the account.

Yup. Still do. And kid, I think what you're thinking about is the option that makes it so that a new acount can't be activated without an admin aproving it.
