    New forum version

    Will the forums be getting updated to the new version? There are some nice new features like multi quote and some nice quick editing stuff.
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

    Yes they will be - however, as I am sure you can tell we have a lot of custom skins and code on the forums and migration takes time We don't want to take the forums offline for long to do it.

    We have already upgraded one of our other forums [http://forums.DVdoctor.net] and plan to do the same here this week hopefully.

    What new feature can we expect? I believe the new version includes a spell checker, any chance that will be included in the upgrade?

    we will be looking at the feature set again - I have already looked through it all and am looking at other additional hacks we may find we want - its a very time consuming and laborious process to make sure we get it all just right.
