The New Forum - Beta Testers wanted!
38 replies
When will we get our reply and be able to use the new forum, I cannot wait to have a look
The plan is for the fifty Beta Test Beoworld members to have access from Saturday 4th February 2011
We are planning to run the Beta test period for two (2) weeks and to resolve any issues which may arise during this period.
Providing that their are no show stopping issues, then after the two week period the new forum will be opened up to all members.
The current forum will then become a "Read Only" forum which you can link to and search in the normal way. I will also be adding hyperlinks to the read only forum from key threads to allow for easy access to all resources since the forum was launched on 16th April 2007
The Wednesday forum will remain using its own forum, but subsequently will be moved to the new faster server.
Once the new forum has been running on the new more powerful server for four (4) weeks, then I will close down the server in the US
For those members interested in the details of our new server, I can tell you that it has one of the newly released AMD server processors and is an eight (8) core 2.5 Ghz Opteron 4274HE with 24GB of main memory and is running Windows Server 2008 R2. It is connected to the Internet via 100mb second link.
Location: Hampshire, England
ItS a real shame the existing forum cannot be uploaded to the new one

The old forum will continue to be able to be read. The problem we have been having is that posters with high rates of posting have been finding that they are practically unable to post. Martin , myself and a number of others have just about stopped posting as quite franklyit has simply taken too much time. The problem has been happening for 18 months and Keith and Lee have investigated every way that this can be remedied. To continue would simply mean that the forum will lose a number of members who contribute greatly to the knowledge base. I imagine posting this reply will take me quite some time!!
My B&O Icons:
I ill come on board if still required.
