Downtime and Upgrades

Yo!
You might've noticed that we've been down for a few days. The host did it, in the server room, with chown. Our database was shut off temporarily because of undue load... how annoying. They didn't even contact us, though they claim to have sent an e-mail. Anyways, I decided to take the opportunity to update the forum software once I got access to the data back. And I did. MySQL made that a painful experience, but we're back now.
Of note, you can now use a spoiler BBCode tag to hide spoilers (duh). It looks like:
There's also a "FanFiction.Net User ID" profile field now that'll make your user account show a link to your FF.Net page if you fill it in.
That's... about it, really. Other than that, it's phpBB3. Not a lot to say.
