BYC is updating, please chat here :)

BYC is going through the same upgrade we did here a few months ago, but it's going to take a LOT longer. That being the case, I wanted to start a thread here where peeps could come get updates

Ok, we've closed down the forum so we can make sure there aren't any new posts etc. while we do a backup of all the data!

Holy poop am I the first one! ?
Do I win something?

I don't know if I can make it without BYC until tomorrow! Can't wait to see the new update.

Both excited and nervous for the change...

I think most peeps won't even notice much difference. Of all the "changes" we've done over the years, this one's actually relatively minor.

 

[chickens really]

This one is very different..

BYC is huge, so the backup is going to take a while

(all the tens of millions of items including threads, posts, messages, articles, review, pictures, etc. etc. etc.)

How many Staff Members are working on it? Just curious. I love learning about BYC history and behind-the-scenes work.
