ANNOUNCEMENT: New PlanetZ Forums

John Cooper · Post by **John Cooper** » Tue Mar 27, 2001 2:14 pm

Hi folks,

Welcome to the new full featured planet z forums. We are now free from obnoxious advertisements, and messages will never expire (unlike the 2000 message limit on the old server).

The server.com administrators refused to provide me with an archive or our messages, so I've spent the last couple days writing complicated python scripts to leech down all the old messages, preserving topic threads and generating users for the non-anonymous posters. See the script <A href="http://www.planetz.com/ImportDisc.py">here</A>, if you're interested

If you are a non-anonymous poster, you should have received an email from me, containing your user id. If you haven't received it, <a href="mailto:john@planetz.com">send me email</a>, or just register yourself with a new username.

Let me know any comments questions!

Thanks for changing this Forum into a UBB. Much better!

I had some trouble logging in though, because my e-mail address wasn't accepted as password. Gladly I know my way around UBB's. Now I'm back in business...
