This is just a thought, but to help you guys move from the other server, would deleting all unused/not used in 1 year+ accounts help so you don't have so much garbage to move?

Or we could get rid of any excess posters I decide don't like.

 

...I could make a list...?

 

Sorry, I'm getting caught up in the moment.

Last I heard the holdup was just the number of posts, ya whole lot o' spammers.

 

No, the issue is everything gets parsed into tables.

 

And, so, the users are one table (easily moved).

 

Admins are one table (easily moved)

 

Calendar is one table (easily moved)

 

sigs and avtars, separate files in another location (easily moved)

 

then, there are 410,000 posts in the history of this board. (NOT easily moved)

 

 

The data for that many posts - the program that moves the table from one server to another, there's a glitch. I need to eliminate that, and this will work like a champ. I'll get it resolved, just got to read up on SQL a little more then I know.

Snap to it. You have until the end of the ASB

Actually, I would rather wait until Mr. Jason gets back. Just feel better about it all in that way.

I'll be back on Tuesday, so anytime Wednesday and beyond I"ll be good to go

Cool. I will catch you up then... just one single issue... and I'll explain (although post above does it pretty well without the extreme details).
