ScienceForums.Net Scheduled Downtime and Upgrade

On Monday, July 12th, ScienceForums.Net will be unavailable from approximately 5pm to 9pm GMT, or 12pm to 4pm ET. During that time, we'll be upgrading the server's operating system and converting SFN to use a brand new forum software -- expect big changes!

During that time, we invite you to join us in the SFN chatroom, which will stay online for the duration of the upgrade.

Please do not panic.

Tired of waiting around for a reply on the forums? Use IRC, 'I don't know how' is no longer an excuse.

You backed things up (will back things up), right?

The existing vBulletin database will not be modified in the conversion, and I plan to leave vB running in read-only mode once IPB is up. A few features will not be converted, such as user albums, so I'd like to leave the content available for users to download it if they want.

‎"Scientism" is the pejorative those who believe in magic give to Empiricism so they can pretend making stuff up is on equal footing with Science.
