Quillz Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 What he said. IPB 3.2 is awesome, BTW. Best board software around. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1028052-upgrade-day/#findComment-594336894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot B. Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Should we refrain from posting until it's complete? I don't want my posts deleted from between the switch. Also, why do some topics have a +1 button (to +1 a post and turn it green) and some don't?

No reason to stop posting, once the upgrade begins the board will be down and you won't be able to post anything anyway. Nothing is going to be deleted "between the switch." Also, I assume you mean the reputation when you say green +1. The ability to give someone reputation is limited to only those posts made in the various support forums (Help & Discussion Center, Platform Support, etc) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1028052-upgrade-day/#findComment-594336914 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjcool007 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Nah, it shouldn't take too long to update. The longest step is updating the Posts table, which will take a while with millions of posts. But other than that it should go pretty smoothly :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1028052-upgrade-day/#findComment-594337264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
