Forum updates

The new forums are now running secure with its own SSL certificate, meaning that everything that happens now is fully encrypted.

In addition, the broken Tapatalk functionality has been fixed.

Let me know if you guys experience any weirdness.

The forum has been updated to phpBB 3.3.0. It was a herculean feat considering all of the mods the previous board had. All files, images, and attachments have been successfully migrated. There were a few things that couldn't be brought over to this new board like the user country flags feature due to compatibility issues. Hopefully I'll be able to peak at the code in more detail later and see if I can edit to work.

Please let me know if you run into any bugs. Hopefully there won't, but with a forum with this many users and posts, something is bound to pop up when least expected.

Cheers,
amstel

P.S. I forgot to mention that the Tapatalk feature is currently broken as well. That's being worked on and will hopefully be resolved within the next week.

I'm still getting reports of php_max_questions borking the board. This is due to the number of guests accessing the site. I've turned CloudFlare's protection back on plus disabled search functionality for guest accounts. Hope this helps alleviate that issue. Please send me an in-game PM if it pops up again.
