Hello,

Firstly apologies to those who may have wandered here from ready the latest Z club magazine and no this isn't the new site.

I have been trying to get the new site up and running for about 2 months now, being mainly held up by a conversion problem and slow response from the vBulletin support team. However this it's my fault that its not ready yet and my magazine article (which I forgot I had written&#33<img src="http://www.zclub.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> has somewhat forced the "better hurry up" issue.

Anyway just a note to say I haven't disappeared, I will be working on it all this weekend and until its done, and expect the site to be coming a going a little bit as I try to move us across.

Any questions let me know :)

Russ, will we have to re-register on the new site or will our current id and password be carried over ?

Your user id, private messages, threads, polls, signature and some settings will be transferred across. Your password however won't. This is because the new website uses a different more secure method of encryption which means your old password cannot be simply transferred.

What'll happen is when its time to move everyone who has ever registered here will get an e-mail with their username, temporary password and a link to enter a new password, along with an explanation about the reasons for this.

I STILL haven't heard back from the latest guy to 'fix' the converter. This is really starting to take the piss a bit.

Sorry for the delays...

Ah hah! I have spoken to the man himself <img src="http://www.zclub.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

He's working on the conversion as we speak so if this site goes down for tonight and some of tomorrow evening thats why, we might be on the move!

He's also extended our licence for free updates to make up for the time we've lost waiting for the conversion, so that's good too! <img src="http://www.zclub.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

You might even be reading this in the new forum...

will you be keeping a record of all the users temp passwords coz i'm sure some people will foul up when tring to enter thier new passwords also will be quite good when people receive thier temp passwords because i'm sure that a few people are registered more than once under different names

Hi,

Gonna work on the site again tonight, I HOPE this is the last time I post this message. Converter should be fine now I hope <img src="http://www.zclub.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

I won't be able to keep each users new password, however it will be very easy for them to request the password again.

Cheers!

Oh and I have an idea for the magazine. If anyone reads MCN whenever someone goes somewhere interesting they take a photo of them in the interesting place reading the paper, I think I'll do the same, 1/4 page with a brief note of who and where the club magazine is, maybe a pic of their Z as well.

If anyone can send me a picture that meets the description (i.e you on holiday reading the club mag) can you e-mail it to me. Otherwise I'll have to photoshop one up.
