Possible downtime on December 8 - VinnyVideo - 12-07-2017

Tomorrow morning I'll be updating the MyBB software so we'll be running the latest version of MyBB (1.8.14). This is a relatively small update that mostly affects the backend of the site - it shouldn't change anything with the themes. However, if you notice any glitches or oddities after the update, be sure to let us know.

Our maintenance window will be from 9 to 10 A.M. (Eastern time) on Friday, December 8. If you access the forums during that time, it's possible that they'll be closed. The mainsite will be unaffected. If you encounter any downtime or technical gremlins outside the maintenance window, please speak up.

Updates always tend to break certain changes that've been made directly to PHP files. I won't be able to fix those this time as I don't have the FTP access any more. I believe these two things will be affected:

- The text on the mail button up the top should only show how many unread messages you have.

- The breadcrumbs up the top shouldn't show what forum group you're in.

This particular update won't change a lot of files, so I don't think we'll need to redo any changes we've made to the core files. However, I'll be sure to make a backup of the current boards, just in case we need to refer to an older version.

@Kritter Was your FTP account broken when we moved the MyBB boards to the new domain? Give me a buzz if you need me to set it up again.

I've finished updating MyBB. We're now running version 1.8.14, the latest version of the MyBB software. This update only changed a couple of files, but let me know if any board features start acting finicky.
