This "upgrade" bar on top of the pages....
....you know it says "We are currently doing an upgrade in the forums engine, creating the busy server messages that you might get. We should be totally done by 9:OO am EST. Apologies on the problems".

Just curious - do the different background colors indicate something special (eg. status of the upgrade?). I saw it on green, grey and black background....or are these secret messages to the mods

no the initial background was black but i use it for the backup notices and it was "too much" for this message(plus this one is two line long so it was too distracting). so i put in "grey" as the color only to find out in a few minutes that IE doesnt like the word grey and turned it into green. so i put it in hex code...

Ah, thx.

Mark...it says currently at 48%. Do you update this manually, or is this done automatically

Or is the percentage only a joke?

It's black in Opera. And it says 54% now. Some 15 minutes before it was stating 52%, so I think it is reasonably fast...

the process is not complete but has taken a slower, underground road. we'll report when it's all done and have some signs that something has actually gone for the better

The "Support Apolyton" link on every post? Or the fact that every woindow that loads has a runtime error?

ACK!

That Support Apolyton link....I thought it was something that an overly smart poster had thought up. I just realized that it is now in all posts.

Silly me
