We are currently running PHP 5.2 and phpBB (the forum software) 3.0.11
On May 2nd, my webhost will be upgrading the PHP to 5.4. Our version of phpBB should still function as intended, but I will likely go on ahead and upgrade us to 3.0.12 for optimal compatibility.
What does this mean?
On May 1st, I will perform a complete backup of the site. I am not entirely sure when the PHP upgrade will happen, but, sometime after it does, I will upgrade the boards. There may be a small availability interruption during that time. Apologies.
Forum Upgrade May 2nd
Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

Re: Forum Upgrade May 2nd
I'm much more terrified of what this mandatory upgrade will due to my other site.

Of course, with every forum upgrade, we get new toys. Right?
RIGHT?

Re: Forum Upgrade May 2nd
PHP version was successfully updated tonight. Does not seem to have caused any issues at all. (It did cause some on my other site, but I was able to solve those problems fairly painlessly.) I'll update the forum software sometime after Monday.
