I haven't completed all the work, but you can access the forum now and start posting.
• If you registered in our run-trial, you will have to register again. The forum is completely new (however the password to the Club is unchanged -- if you have forgotten it, please notify me).
• Please remember to add your birthday, nationality and location in the user CP.
• One major change is that we will basically operate with two member user groups: prospects who are not members of IHG, and IHG members. The two groups have different permissions. For instance, prospects are not allowed to see IHG members profile pictures, your birthday and other member info.
Prospects have also few permissions, e.g. they cannot make attachments and they have smaller mailbox (max 10 messages, whereas yours will have a max of 100).
• When you register, you will be immediately signed to the prospect group (the default groups), but you will be replaced to the IHG Member Group as soon as I have seen your registration (I will have to do this manually). Your posts from this forum will be added to the new forum (I also have to this manually).
• Gurj will be assigned to supermoderator (will be able to delete, lock and move threads, and more).
Was that all?... Oh, yes, I believe there is a clear majority (among those who voted) that the new forum will be our primary forum.
SO I WILL ASK EVERYBODY TO REGISTER AT THE NEW FORUM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
The registration is easy as you will be asked to provide a username and password right away (i.e. we will not experience the same problems as here where new users sometimes did not receive a password).
In the next week, we will close all the forums for posting except the Global Forum. I believe this is necessary to provide an incentive to move and to avoid duplicating of threads. (The World Cup Forum will not be closed before I have all the box scores from CP, except CP76).
You can find the new forum here:

Two more things:
The database capacity has been boosted by a factor of 300 (!) so there's no risk that we will reach the limit for many years.
Also, in case you don't know it already, the new forum is own by us/me, and there will be no annoying popup ads as in this forum.
