Hey all.

The hosting company for the site is upgrading their version of SQL used to run the databases ... hopefully this should further help to fix some of the minor issues we've been seeing.

This means that on Wednesday evening we may have a couple of glitches as everything is transferred over to the newer version.

Just FYI really.

At this time, we'll be copying and upgrading your database to run using MySQL 5.

MySQL 5 better handles the many simultaneous requests our new database servers receive. The upgrade should therefore enable your site to take fuller advantage of the improved hardware we've added in the past couple months. We're expecting that this upgrade to MySQL 5 will help to resolve any intermittent MySQL issues you've been experiencing.

Is vBulletin supported on this version of MySQL and is there a backup? :)
