Hello,
not sure if anyone actually visits the forums... I wanted to just turn it off, as there were just issues with the old one and no one seems to be vsiting it (maybe because of the issues). It looked like the development was paused or stopped for some time. I was unable to update it and running the old code would soon bring issues.
After about 2 weeks of fighting, I managed to somehow migrate the old forums to this new, Flarum powered forums - as if nothing else, I wanted to keep the old posts as some kinf of archive. So, it lives for now...
The accounts from the old forum should work too. But I deleted most of them, as they were created by spam bots. So if I deleted some regular account, sorry for that - you will need to create a new one.
