As you can see I have changed the software that powers the community. In effect we are back to our roots. The site started on Invision Community. If not for a disagreement with a dev at IPB we would never have switched. IPB is more full featured than xenforo. Things are still be imported so you might run into a few quirks. Hang in there and bear with me. A new era of Free PC Help Forum is about to begin.

To recover or validate any data loss, it’s essential to resync or validate the new primary with the old primary as soon as it’s back online. This ensures any lost transactions are reconciled. If critical data was missed during the failover, it must be recovered and merged to maintain database consistency. This blog …
