bionic56 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 what will be the benefits mate ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 what will be the benefits mate ?Loads of new features. I'd post the upgrade list, but because we're so far behind in versions at the moment (almost 2 years), there's a lot more we'll be getting than what's in it (it's only got what's different from the version immediately previous).The site will have a small facelift too! I'm also hoping to have the search platform upgraded because this one sucks, but waiting to hear back from Invision about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to ask them to push it to Tuesday and see what they say.That would be most preferable I know - but my exams, trip to the US and the Vegas shows are all coming up, so I needed to get this out of the way as soon as possible or it wouldn't happen before January. Monday was a good day for me because I don't have to go in to uni. Can't afford to delay to the week after that, so we'll just have to make the best of the situation and hopefully we won't experience too much downtime.I'll let you guys know the precise date/time as soon as I receive word.

Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So what time will this be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 So what time will this be?It's up to Invision. It's a bit frustrating actually - at work, it's part of my job to make sure upgrades like this are successful, and they're meticulously planned days or even weeks in advance. If someone asked when an upgrade like this was going to take place, I'd be able to tell them everything.. from when to how long it was going to take, to what might go wrong, etc etc... that's the standard I'm used to.Getting info out of these guys as to when and how they perform the upgrade has been really difficult, but I've been led to believe they'll do it basically whenever they get around to it on Tuesday. Not great because I'll be in an exam for some of it in my timezone, but hopefully it won't overlap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 How inflexible of them. Thanks for the answer anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
