Yep, it's official; WE MOVED! After gathering opinions and poll results in the "The Future of Y-Corner Forums - Switch to phpBB3?" thread, it was decided that we will be switching to a phpBB3-based forum that will be hosted under the YoonHuh.com domain.
Some of you might be wondering why we've decided to move. Few major reasons:
1.) phpBB3 offers a lot more advantages over using ProBoards.com. 2.) The new forum will be hosted privately under YoonHuh.com. Our ProBoards-based forum is restricted to being hosted only on ProBoards' servers, which makes us subjected to any downtime that affects ProBoards' servers. 3.) Ability to back up all of our threads and posts. On ProBoards, this was not possible, but switching to phpBB3 will give us this ability, in case of any data loss.
For a while, decision on the move was stalled, since there was no way to transfer all of our posts, threads, and accounts to phpBB3. However, there was a major breakthrough recently, as someone over at the official phpBB forums was able to develop a method to transfer posts/threads/accounts to phpBB3. Utilizing this method, we were successful in transferring all of our data to a phpBB3-based forum, hence making way for our relocation.
Since this is a major move, I know that this will be initially inconvenient, which I apologize for. Although some of the features that were in use on this forum will be initially missing on the phpBB3 forum, they will eventually be added back in, once everything on the new forum settles down.
Since member accounts were transferred as well, you can login on the new forum using the same user name that you currently use to login on this forum. However, all accounts were given new, randomized passwords, as passwords could not be transferred. Please check the thread "How to Login Y-Corner (phpBB3)" for directions on using your old account on the new forum.
As for the existing ProBoards-hosted Y-Corner forum, it will be kept online as long as possible. It will act as an archive forum, for those that want to visit for nostalgic purposes. It will no longer be updated. All boards and topics will be set to 'Read-Only' mode, except for the 'Forum Support Center' section, which will be left open for those that are having issues logging into the phpBB3 Y-Corner forum.
If you have not done so already, please update your bookmarks to 'http://forums.yoonhuh.com' or 'http://www.yoonhuh.com/forums/'. I will be re-directing the current http://forums.yoonhuh.com/ URL to the new phpBB3 forum on July 6. The http://ckturbo128.proboards4.com/ URL will be used to access the ProBoards-hosted Y-Corner.
If you have any personal questions or issues regarding the move, please feel free to post in the 'Forum Support Center' section or PM me. Thanks to everyone who was able to vote and give their opinion on this decision!

Hmm, from the results and opinions I've heard, it appears that most people either support the move to phpBB3 or are indifferent to the move. Given the result, Y-Corner will officially move to phpBB3! Since this is a major move, I know that this will be initially inconvenient, which I apologize for. However, with the move from ProBoards.com, it will open up a lot of options for us. Although some of the features that were in use on this forum will be initially missing on the phpBB3 forum, they will eventually be added back in, once everything on the new forum settles down.
Since all of the accounts, threads, and posts were transferred, you can login on the new forum using the same user name that you currently use to login on this forum. Please follow the directions in the How to Login on Y-Corner (phpBB3), if you wish to use your transferred account on the new forum.

I havent played with horde and I dont know where to lvl my chars.. And I think that hordes are ugly (even blood elf). My favorite races are human and draenei. The thing is that I dont want to learn new lvling places (thats the boring part). I like hordes in WC3 but not in WoW

For most of the day, I've fixed a lot of bugs and implemented some more features on the phpBB3 forum. I have fixed the "e-mail does not exist" problem, by going through the entire SQL user name database and replacing any of the missing gaps. The phpBB3 board is ready for anyone that wishes to switch over.
Features like ShoutBox are now available on the phpBB3 forum. Some features just couldn't be transferred over, such as the Shop feature. However, some of the missing features will be re-implemented through the coming weeks. There are some minor bugs still lingering around, but these don't affect general forum usage and will probably be fixed within the next few weeks or so.
With the phpBB3 board ready, it is time to decide whether to switch. Please vote in the poll and post your opinions about this. I'll make the final decision tomorrow (June 30) night.
And btw. I like alliance very much I would prefer us playing there (I might even play WoW). But people wanna be on horde so Im there too (lol)
Why do you like alliance? I'm just curious. I like horde because in Warcraft 3 that's what I play, they have better racials, and it's what I've played for 2-2 1/2 years (and they win Battlegrounds). I do like the Dwarfs for alliance.
I also switched Katsuko to Mining and Blacksmithing (for Hammersmith) and will have Tomtom be blacksmithing (Swordsmith).

Strange, I checked your profile and your G-Mail e-mail was listed. However, whenever I clicked the e-mail button in your profile, it said that the e-mail information didn't exist.
In any case, I have fixed your account by re-entering in your e-mail address. I also set up a temp. password for you with which you can login with. It should be in your PM box. Once you login, make sure you change your password to your preferred password in the user account control.
