Proboards is in the process of upgrading all of their servers to Version 4. Servers 1-20 have been upgraded and I imagine that since we are on server 24, we will be in the next batch of upgrades. When they start the process, it may take up to 24 hours to complete. If you are unable to access the forums in the near future, it is probably due to the upgrade so please be patient.
Version 4 will have many new features, one of which will be Instant Messaging. There will also be the capability of attaching files.

Ouch......I hope that we are not down that long. Proboards is saying it should only take 12 to 24 hours. Maybe they have worked out the kinks since Payette was upgraded.

Sorry I missed you Joe. By the time I saw your message and got logged in, you were gone.

Sounds like the new features will be really cool.
Frank, maybe you and I will be able to team up on a chat with Ron or Joe for a change once the Instant Messaging is in place. ;D ;D ;D
Usually, I always see their messages too late, and then when I get to the chat room, I'm the only one there.

Yep, that's what happened last night with me and Joe. I am really looking forward to the upgrade and according to message at the top of the page today, it will happen in the next 24 hours. From what I have seen on the Proboards support forums, it will probably begin around 0100 central tonight. I am not looking forward to the downtime or the potential problems immediately after the upgrade but I sure am looking forward to the new features.

Gastineau Air's boards started their upgrade yesterday and it's still not done. I'd say it'll take at least 2 days.

The main guy over at Proboards got sick before our upgrade finished so the upgrade on Servers 21-27 was halted and those servers were reverted back to version 3. Now it doesn't look like our upgrade will happen until sometime next week.
