IMPORTANT FORUM INFORMATION!

Starting tomorrow (Tuesday, July 1st) at approximately 9:00 AM CST (GMT -6), the Minecraft Forum will be going into Read-Only Mode, while we back up the entire forum database, and get the new, improved forum software installed, up, and running!

During the maintenance period, you will still be able to read pages on the forum. However, you will not be able to post, change your profile, or make any other changes until we leave the maintenance period.

We anticipate that the maintenance will last around, or a little longer than, 10 hours.

We will update this post when the maintenance period goes into effect, as well as when it ends. We are very excited about the new forum changes, and think you will be as well! See you soon!

No, you won't be able to do anything but read the forum, you'll be logged out of your accounts.

Read only mode is where the forum is read only. Users will only be able to read post. No one can post since they are backing everything and porting everything over. Also, I am very exited. I just hope everything everyone said goes into consideration Thank you for this update!

Probably not Lokio. I'm also enthusiastic about not having threads being eaten... still going to backup my OP code personally just in case something still lingers. (Precaution is always paramount when it comes to data)

Yay, let the breaking begin.
I presume along with all this, a database cleanup as well again.

Finally! Cobalt is here! No more posts turning to HTML (even though it has never happened to me). Also, no more having to right click and open in new tab to get the quote button to work and no more refreshing to get the inline editor to close.

no. That website will most likely close. It was just for testing the new design ans such.
