As many of you know, we've been experiencing a lot of instability lately which resulted in me needing to take the forum fully offline last night. I think I have the problem pinned down to an incompatibility between the latest version of vBulletin and vbSEO (a search engine optimization script. I currently have vbSEO disabled so forum URLs may look a bit different. If stability improves, I will look into upgrading vbSEO. However, I am also considering just uninstalling the script since the next version of vBulletin is supposed to have some significant built-in SEO features. The downside to that, and it's a significant one, is that we'll lose all current search engine placements since the search engines have all the old URLs indexed. It will take a while for the new ones to get spidered.

Well, that's the current status. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I just though it was because you were changing the main fourm over to a Sundown/bump forum and having a sub forum for everything else!

Hopefully the change works.

Anyone have any issues today? Seems zippy to me. I'm trying to decide if I want to reapply an update to that vbSEO software. There is some nice functionality to it.
