Well the dust has almost settled and things are working good, there are still a couple of issues but all-in-all I think that the new system will be a definite improvement.
During the upgrade I changed forums and if you were a member previously I sincerely apologize but you will have to re-register because the new forum was unable to import any user information from the previous forum.
In closing I want to thank everyone that has provided feedback and encourage others to join in and use the new forum.
Thanks=>Mike
