If you've read our recent newsletters, then you know I've been on the hunt for a forum replacement. I think I've found the thing, it's all set up, and I'd love to have a sort of "open beta" period for people to try things out.
I'd like to ramp up slowly, so I'm posting here first. Later, will post to the blog and social media. And if all goes well, will newsletter sometime after that.
We'll then gradually shift activity to the new space. New posts and signups will be disabled here; we'll keep this forum open for a short while so that we can wrap up active conversations. And after a few weeks, will hopefully shutter this forum for good.
So, if you'd like to try out the new space, please register here:
https://discourse.theturninggate.net
Start some new conversations, and let's try things out. Please leave feedback if you have it.
Some of the things I like about the new space:
* supports Markdown in posts
* easier moderation of signups and spam, and scheduled purging of inactive accounts
* easier to add brand colors
* has a feature set that helps to engender community interaction
* users can add images more easily
* is active software (FluxBB hasn't received an update in 1.5 years, which is a real problem considering the huge number of illegitimate registrations we receive here)

Well, there's no pleasing everyone. I far prefer it, both aesthetically and in terms of the ease with which it allows me to do my job. As Rod says, I'm sure you'll get used to it. Moreover, I suspect you will grow to appreciate the many new capabilities you will have there. Specific to you Rainer, I think you'll like the syntax highlighting and copy-to-clipboard features for posted code snippets, and how easily you can add images to a post.

and a big plus (at least I hope so), far fewer spam posts.
and hopefully a better search function too

Now I am confident of the new board. Good and helpful video.
