Ask What YOU Can Do For Your Forum!

"Ask not what your forum can do for you, ask what you can for your forum" - Some disgruntled forum admin

So in restoring the old posts from the original GRF there comes some issues:

• The back up does not contain the email addresses of previous members so if you know how to contact anyone, please let them know we are online again.
  
• The backup does not contain thread or forum numbers for the posts, so a new thread must be created, then through the database I have to assign the new thread number to the old thread, change the forum id #, etc.
  
• Some members were merged so you will find posts that do not show the correct author. Example: Alaska_Freedom and Whiteangel were merged so anything posted by Whiteangel shows as Alaska_Freedom and vice versa.
  
• When creating a new thread you may find that it contains old posts. 
  
• Im sure we will encounter more issues
  

If you encounter any of these issues while posting or browsing, please push the report button or send me a link to the post/thread.
