The new forums have their own database that stores it's own set of posts.  The old forums has it's own database and your old posts are stored there.  EVGA cannot integrate those database files, so it will be necessary for you to copy and paste over your important posts from that forum.  I would like to suggest that you notate the posts you copy over with a statement at the top telling us this was previously posted.  Feel free to continue the old posts at the old forums, but eventually, those posts will be read only.  If you have put considerable time into something and is beneficial to to the community, please share in the new forums.  Please make a new post seperate from this one with it's own title and content.

I kinda dont care about my old posts unless its marketplace wise.
 
 
 
EDIT: I forgot about my Classy Crew, If the old forum is "read-only", then Im sure people can still copy and paste the links.

why the new forums?

welcome one and all

First post on the new forums! I really like the new look. The black-white-black fade is a nice touch.

What is the conditions of stickies being brought over to the new forums? There are very many good stickies, but the original member who posted it may not frequent the forums anymore. What do we do about that?

this is a new look! need to get use to it!

Nice!

Thanks Delirious!

I guess we better start getting use to the new boards.

It's going to be slow while it caches on your system.  It works very fast for me personally since I've been using it for a few months.

Nice but I hope evga won't delete the older forums just yet. Can you copy all the post data from the previous forums to this one? Is this one on a different server as well? I know you guys are building this one. 

Read the first post again.

Yea I didn't read the last part where the old forums will be read only. Cool, but here my login name appears instead of [Y]urimaster which is my old forum name. I don't see an option to change it yet. 

Shane said for now, that option has not been enabled.  But it will.  http://forums.evga.com/tm.asp?m=100977720&mpage=1&key=?
