Defencetalk Forums will be down on Thursday, December 30th, 2004.

Will be upgrading forum software and migrating threads/posts/forums/users, etc to the new software. It should be back within 24 hours after its down but it could take longer if things don't go as planned. Other sections of the site will be available, including the gallery. You may not be able to login to the gallery but pictures will be open for all.

Please bear with us while this upgrade is performed for good of the DT community and for your better experience as a user. :)

Enjoy!

A few niggles
- The previous homepage had the latest updated threads, I had found that feature pretty useful. I hope it be made available in this forum too, it won't be that hard, contact your developer about it
- The forum description below their links are too long. Grants an overall ugly look to the whole forum page
- It seems all the email notification subscriptions have been lost?

On the whole though a great job, this is certainly better than the extinct phpBB. Okay now let's get back to the usual.
:argue
:p

Hmm the forum descriptions are gone. That's even uglier. A small one liner description would be fine, not an entire paragraph though.
