Hi everyone! I don't get around to posting as much as I did (struggles of getting engaged and first year teacher). This site looks much improved, but not at all overwhelming. Thank you to all who worked on the transition!

We miss you as well! Holy crap you are a teacher now, and engaged? That is crazy, you were always so young!

Hi all,
I only lurked at the old site, but I wanted to say thank you to everyone who worked to keep the old site going, and everyone who helped create and test this new improved version. Over the years, I believe this group has been perhaps the most level-headed group of fans out there. :aok:

I am surprised at how much it resembles the old site. A little surprised you did not use one of the free SSL services. No one outside Google knows, but word is that if you require a password, which this site does and if you don't use SSL, Google may seriously dock you.

Anyway I like it. And best to sty off the Podium anyway.

Thanks for the reminder! I literally noticed the SSL -thing the minute [mention]BF004[/mention] announced the forum :thwap: . I sorta assumed our otherwise very capable tech guy had implemented it. We will look into adding it.

Great job guys. I was of course dismayed that we must use the Queen's English and not 'Merican like normal folks. Pip pip cheerio!

SSL certificate is now installed, and we are safer than ever! :box:

If anyone had trouble signing in during the last hour or so, it was due to this security upgrade. Everything we had planned should now be installed, so should be smooth sailing from here on out. :woohoo:

It seems there may have been a slight hiccup with the SSL certificate install. I was on, then disconnected, and then couldn't sign back in for several minutes. If this happens to anyone else, be patient. Within minutes the system "reset" and I was able to log in and write this very post.
