Believe it or not, and many probably don't, but the migration of NSC to Xenforo is finally underway.

I don't have a timeline yet, but the Xenforo license has been procured and the chap who is an expert at vBulletin -> Xenforo migrations is now commenting work on a test migration. All very exciting!

I'll provide progress updates as and when I have something to share.

A brief summary of what this will mean...

- NSC's look and feel will change. If you are a member of any attractive-looking Xenforo forums and/or use any that have good/fun features, please let me know so I can look to shamelessly copy.

- NSC will be fully mobile-responsive. At long last. This means...

- Tapatalk will be going away. No more "Sent from my FW-D986H using Tapatalk" - rejoice!

- You will continue to login with the same username and password. However, I'm anticipating a lot of people who remain permanently logged in, will not know their password, and some of these people will find the email address registered on here is old meaning they can't get a password reset. It would be very helpful if people were able to sort this out sooner rather than later to save me having to help out a lot of people all around the time of the migration. You can do that here > https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/profile.php?do=editpassword If you get stuck, drop me a line and I'll get your sorted out.

As is traditional I hope that post counts and join dates are going to be reset.

In fact, I demand it.

Since this announcement is anyone else finding NSC totally unusable? can't login? load times are impossibly long?
......or is it just me on my Commodore 64?

As a former global change manager, I would have expected a change ticket, setting out change plans, versification plans and blackout plans, change window dates and full approval by the change board after presentation and discussion.

There again, I have retired so WTF do I care.

This past week I've found I've had to log in every time I access the site. Before then it always remembered my details. Any connection, or is it I sometimes log in with a UK IP address via a VPN?

This is fantastic news!

Xenforo is incredible forum software.

Will be easier to post gifs, images, embedded videos and the like, avatars will look better, an easy to create even more cooler smilies, easier and funner to react to someone's post(Can give them a like, a laugh, etc), will run faster, etc.

Everyone will enjoy it I think.

They call it Xenforo
