As many of you have noticed the old message boards have had some problems. It started last night and I think that my web hosting provider has made some changes to the system that caused my programs to not function correctly.
I don't have the time to figure out what is going on there so I am asking everyone to just use the new message boards instead. I will get the help pages up soon. I'm still in the process of finishing the details of this system (I'm sure many of you noticed the change to the design).
One big difference you should note is that in this system you must be a registered user to post messages. This stops people from posing as someone else which has actually happened before. The new system may take a little getting used to but it is much more functional than the old one. For instance, you can perform searches on the message board, and the old messages stay around.
There are still some bugs that need to be fixed, but they will be worked out shortly.
I hope you like the new Cafe.
