New Website being launched soon.

[Fred Zed]

OK so we are almost at the point where we are going to migrate onto our new platform. When we migrated MERB.CC a couple of weeks ago the site was down for almost 5 days. We are hoping to have this migration done faster with less downtime.. Feel free to browse MERB.CC so that you can get an idea of what is coming here. The new platform has many more features than our current one, such as unlimited PM space, and being able to "LIKE" comments. It also has a Trophy system etc, etc. We will give you a days notice as to when this will start, you are also welcomed to join conversation on TERB.CC if you are bored lol . Be safe

Wait a second! OMG, you mean there are “others” out there? And here I was living an illusion that we in Perb-land were all alone in the vast Nebula of muggles. Lol. Ok, first contact made...

The new MERB site looks nice to me. Familiar structure. More colours, extra graphics. Some features to learn but I think I will survive the migration. Maybe somebody can hold my hand when it’s time for the leap.

Whew, happy to be back on Perb now. I appreciate that our beloved Perbatory has more entertainment value than “MERB Suspensions”. Who’s been naughty?

May the transition be smooth. Thanks for the heads-up!

Will all content be transferred over or will it fresh start?

the whole database gets moved over. Would suck if someone with 20 years and thousands of posts had to start from scratch.

When it comes to infractions and banning records........there may be some here that would welcome “ starting from scratch “
Asking for a friend of mine of course.....I’m a rule follower all the way.

Kudos Fred, for embracing the switch to a new Platform !

Change is an inevitable fact of Life, just like Death, and Taxes !
I had a quick look at MERB, and I liked what I saw . Kind of enjoyed this Thread in their Lounge .

This COVID-19 Pandemic should have opened Everyone's eyes, that the "Norm" is just a moment in Time...

I just thank my lucky Stars, that We're not heading into WW3, or that I'm a Japanese Canadian in 1942 !

It's Times like these... to appreciate what We have, and adapt to Change !

Not to worry, I keep written records.

Somehow.......I kinda figured you might.
That also explains why you’ve never accepted my numerous friend requests.

Just toke a peak.
Definitely is more flashy. Will take a bit to get use too. I am a minimalist, it is all about the content.

I think perb did have a lot more features back 10 yrs ago . Many of them I miss.Will we ever see then again like the chat rooms,health nurse,more interaction we the ladies or even more ladies willing to interact on the board???����

That's all fine Fred but, Perb has a boat load of registered user's that I'm sure haven't been active for years & years. Why not just delete those users that haven't been active ....let's say 5 years +? Just a suggestion.

2) I take it that our existing sign-in passwords will be carried over to the new platform?

Nice job.

It would be nice have the text in the forum posts be a bit larger when looking on my phone. Is that an option? Otherwise I think it looks good.
Would be nice to have a few modern features.

This can be done at the user level.

The Chrome Android browser has its own separate setting for increasing text size across the web:

Open Chrome, tap the three-dot menu icon in the upper-right corner, and select “Settings”

Tap “Accessibility,” then adjust the “Text scaling” slider until the text is comfortable for you to read.

Thanks Asian Fever, what about iPhone? I tried Display & Brightness, Text Size. Increased it by one step. Makes a difference to certain apps, but not to the Internet in Safari at least.

you need to change safari settings, not phone settings

Hope I remember my password....I rely on the cookies lol, and I don't have an active email tied to my account to reset my password, although I am sure I could guess it as I have had to in the past.

New features should be cool.

If you have to you could also email Fred Zed to get your password changed or update your account before the change over.

That's great News !

Will Ads for SPs be active again, with the launch of the new Site ?

In BC We've managed to flatten the COVID-19 Curve . A lot of Ladies have announced accepting Appointments starting June 1st .
It just seems to coincide well with the Launch .

Judging by the Review Section activity the last Week or so, Sessions are actively taking place anyways .
I think PERB has fulfilled it's Moral duty !
