Title: Common Slowpokes

I suspect it is mostly OG members that know about this place.  It has not gotten much mention in a long time.

Edit:  I just noticed that there are only just over 1,800 registered users and only four of us are logged in with a couple guests browsing.

Any kind of software update is a hair pulling experience.
I'm across the San Fernando Valley from Kes, I do hear some low pitched cursing but no screaming (yet).

Wow, somehow I missed the opportunity to come here during the 2021 security update.  Signed up earlier this week but as others have noted, sometimes takes a few days to be authorized.

What's the over under on how many requests Kes received this week.  1,000?

They're just trying to rank higher than the Galapagos Islands, which has 3 types of Boobies - https://www.metropolitan-touring.com/blog/nature/boobies-in-the-galapagos/ (https://www.metropolitan-touring.com/blog/nature/boobies-in-the-galapagos/)

Just remember, as the article states, 'boobies' is derived from the Spanish word "bobo," which means, according to the Spanish to English translations online: chump, fool, dweeb, dopey, dumb, dopy, silly, foolish, stupid, dummy, daft, among an host of similar descriptors - https://m.interglot.com/es/en/bobo (https://m.interglot.com/es/en/bobo)

On top of that, they're all the 'masculine form.'

Which, I suppose, all kinda fit the circumstances, especially when a 'masculine form' tends to encounter them.   ;)

The last word from Kestryll was -

This is the latest from the support staff doing the update and migration.

Just to keep you up to date - the upgrade from vB3 to vB6 is still running.  The database structure in vB6 is completely different to that in vB3 so all of your post and thread data has to be rewritten to the newer format which, on a forum of your size, can take some time.

Once the database conversion is complete we will then get it migrated into the vB Cloud site and let you know when that's completed.

Otherwise, there is a good deal of speculation and 'expertizing' as to how long it will take.
