Administrator IAmNumbaOne Posted September 7, 2011 Administrator Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 In preparation for the release of Diablo 3 and as apart of the standard progression of the site we are in the process of upgrading to the latest version of IPB. This upgrade will give us access to all the latest features of IPB along with new/current skins (yay!). I'm not sure exactly when the upgrade/migration will take place but it should be soon. Please be aware that site will be down during this (unknown amount of) time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoDaReaper Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 DIII is right around the corner. Friends & Family Beta has already begun, and Closed Beta for everyone else will begin soon (any time from today until the end of the month). "...the site is going back to dtrades.org" Awesome. Deeeeeeeeeee trades was where it all began! "re-worked version of the site's original white skin" I am most excited. "WE NEED A NEW LOGO" Is there any possibility that the old Dtrades.org logo could be used? A few months ago I found a website that looks to be your creation (http://www.caintest.com/) but is now shut down. I believe it had the old logo. I'm quite fond of that one!

Site Owner tenjuna Posted September 12, 2011 Site Owner Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 update: I have about 10 years worth of crap I am sorting through on the servers before I am going to unleash Invision on the upgrade. since we are pretty much starting over from scratch, may as well take the time to clean out the trash. for those who don't know, I am going to nursing school, which is kicking my a**...this is part of the reason why things seem to move so slowly. I only have so much time I can work on this with a full-time job, full-time school, 2 teenagers to deal with. Yeah, it's a wonder I am not insane.

Site Owner tenjuna Posted September 16, 2011 Site Owner Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I actually let all my godly characters expire and deleted them. that was the best way for me to stop playing, and I was not going to allow all that one of a kind gear out into the wild. though I am going to miss that hammerdin I had, omg he was a beast. better to just let them die and move on. I might give away all my enzod2 stuff at some point, probably after the site is done. I think I still have almost 150 accounts...or maybe I will just delete everything, seems like a lot of work for nothing. aaaanyway, I have been poking away on the file system from work on my iphone, a little here a little there. unfortunately its like 100,000 files and 10 years worth of projects, ideas, backups, etc. you can't even imagine some of the crap I have come across. the funniest one so far was the porn shop I ran back in like 2001...totally forgot I had that lol. and there it was still running on the server, though obviously no sales since like 2003. ahhh what a crazy life I've had.

When I'm in this situation I typically ghost the drive(s), delete everything that isn't essential to whatever I'm working on, and then forget about the drive I ghosted everything to. Hasn't failed me yet... the funniest one so far was the porn shop I ran back in like 2001...totally forgot I had that lol. and there it was still running on the server, though obviously no sales since like 2003. ahhh what a crazy life I've had.

Site Owner tenjuna Posted September 21, 2011 Site Owner Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Trusty Trader is going to be kilt after the upgrade...I am moving the scores to the IPB Member Reputation feature instead. Since D2 is all but dead, there isn't really much point in having a separate rating system. One less thing to code. However, I will put in some double rainbows and lollipops to those who earned the shield, just to make you feel all warm and fuzzy about life. Shop items & forum gold are solid...they will definitely be in the new site, but it's going to take a large part of my brain to figure out how to get stuff from here to there...it's not the same system. Ugh, shoot me. Arcade is meh, not sure I care. Chat or shoutbox will be there in some form, not sure I care. Casino/raffle may be there, still considering it, not sure I care. Did I mention I'm not sure I care? Skins...I have 3 candidates so far, what do you guys think...you have to use your imagination a bit obviously I am going to modify the hell out of these if we use it/them: Mactastic (replacement for original dtrades skin) Engraved (I love this skin and it's free...this one is my choice) Surface (zoom out a little to see whole image.
