So, now that Ian Montgomerie has decided to upgrade his site, how do fellow AH.com veterans feel about the switchover from VBulletin to XenForo?
Personally, I'll miss the former, mainly because of nostalgia-but I've seen the latter, and it looks pretty neat, based on what I recall.

I'll probably feel similar. I've been on that board since 2012. I'm certain, though, I'll get used to the new version.

Haven't been on in months, though I hope things go well.
I still occasionally wonder how the Politiyanks reacted to the primaries.

Very happy with it. The time has come to go into the new era.

I'm looking forward to the new and improved board. But the Second Board will still have a place as the one I joined.

I'm looking forward to the new board, but simultaneously skeptical that it will actually happen.

You think Ian has just permanently shut down the Board?

You think Ian has just permanently shut down the Board? Now that would be absolutely hilarious.

In essence, the new board is essentially Board 2.5 as the contents migrate as well. I see it like the transition from old West Germany to modern Germany, a new land, but mostly the same culture with all of its manners intact. On the other hand, I responded to the downtime by watching the entire Attack No. 1 series on Amazon Prime. And yes, I'm serious about what I said about Attack No. 1 in the Flamebait Thread Titles II thread.

Do the Holy Clinity (Caspian, DTanza, and black angel) hate Bernie for making the primary nasty and not dropping out? Not really. They've all discounted Bernie and have ignored him, as in their words, Hillary is 95% of the way to winning. Instead, everyone's freaking about Trump's recent surge in the national polls. Anyways, it's good the website's being updated. The search engine was shitty.

As a former AH.com member, I really can't say much about the board in recent times after my resignation before the upgrade but I will say that I will miss the old look of the site.
Also I'm not really fond of the search engine either.

A lot of this-then again, though, looking back, maybe I was a little too optimistic that the GOP wouldn't completely lose it's mind-but Eric Boehlert and certain others had been calling it for months and it turns out they ended up being right(on the other hand, though, many of these same folks have also rightly pointed out just how weak of a candidate Teh Donald really is..... ) Also, during the last couple of days, I also tried to convince some folks that one or two outlier polls showing Trump ahead of Clinton in a certain few states were just that; outliers(hardly a "surge" on his part, even if his numbers with conservatives nationally have improved since last week). Don't think it went over too well, though, but that's just because some folks haven't had the chance to calm down yet. In any case, if I can gain enough posts before next Monday, I'll definitely be active in this site's U.S. politics thread again, at least while AH.com is still being upgraded and polished.

Ah, so... you also needed a password? Is it sure that it's IANs normal password, or a special one? Do we need to re-register? Is a time specified on Sunday or Monday when AH.com will work again?
