Welcome back to Off Topix!
Sorry for the recent downtime but it was needed to get the conversion completed.
We have decided to ditch vBulletin due to several reasons (a couple of those are: security vulnerabilities/holes in the 3.8.x software and no desire to use their 4.0.x software).
Everything has been converted over successfully. You should not need to reset your password and you should be able to log in with no problems. Your posts, topics, profile comments, signature, avatar, etc should have been smoothly converted over as well. Ive been checking around and have not seen any problems yet (that does not guarantee everything is perfect, but lets keep our fingers crossed).
EDIT: A couple people have emailed me saying their password does not work.
If your password does not work, please send an email to
We will need to rely you (the community) to look for stuff (wrong settings, bb codes not working, wrong permissions, things like that) and tell us what is wrong so we can address those issues right away.
Feel free to explore the new software, play around with your settings. See what new things you can do.. If you have any questions donââ¬â¢t hesitate to ask. Enjoy the new Off Topix!
