    We will be updating the software that power you community in the next few days.. Here is some important information you need to be aware of:
    Using Username = Password now Disallowed

    In this release, users will no longer be allowed to set their username and passwords to the same value. Users who already have a password that is the same as their username will be forced to change their password on their next login.​
    ALL users that have a password that is the same as or similar (as in uses part of) to their username WILL have to change it. I strongly suggest you do so NOW as you will be forced to do so once we have upgraded.

    No other user-related issues are expected.

    Okay, now say if you have your username, but you have a different password? Will it effect logging in this forum? Do I still need to change it?
     
    PC will be shut off (not down) during upgrade process (about 5 - 30 mins) - a normal vB maintenance update.

    NO passwords need to be changed UNLESS you use your username as (part of?) your password. i.e. username: joebob password: joebob

    You guys don't do that right?
     
    Okay, phew. My password is totally different than my username. I just trying to make sure, thanks a lot. *walks away all happily*
     
    no. I dont do that.
    that would be foolish o_0
    i say you do this "maintenance"
    next week while im at school ^_^
     
    Two questions:

    What day are you planning on doing this?

    Are you up dating vBulleten?
     
    Yes, this is an update to the vBulletin forum software that powers PC.

    Ah, what version are we going to?

    Is the userface going to be different?

    Normally maintenance updates of a version (Like 3.7.x, where x is the maintenance number)
    have only bug/security fixes. So none or less features are added (normally none).

    There are several template fixes with 3.7.3 but none of the templates were changed extremely.
     
    this is good news, a new security measure to stop people from stealing accounts and spamming the board. Thanks for the heads up! (not that it really affects me, but still good to know)
     
    Spoiler:


    I wonder if the update is over?

    I get an access denied message. o_o

    But nobody else with over 5000 posts has made a blog yet so maybe it isn't working for us?
     
    ......5000 posts...?

    ...................

    How exactly did you come up with that number?

    Exotic, I know. D: It's the free way to get a blog - and that's assuming your posts are of quality. Besides, if you're much of a regular, 5000 isn't that much of a stretch. If you're truly dedicated, surely you can gain a high number. :x

    Or, you can fund us a bit extra (and by the way, you can shoot me now).
