So what's going to happen to the old forums?

I'm just wondering, what's going to happen to them. Will they either just get deleted, or will they just get locked so people can go back and look at all the old threads? Since there wasn't a data transfer, many people are worried if all those old threads are going to just dissapear.

Re: So what's going to happen to the old forums?

From the announcement on the old forums:

This forum will be completely locked on or around Thursday, April 28 around 5:00 p.m. CDT, and you will no longer be able to log in. This will hopefully give you all a chance to make any preparations and to migrate over to the new forum. This forum will stay up for archival purposes at least until August 2011 unless we find another host for it.

This date has been postponed to May 12 to give us time to fix up the forum some more.

The date has been pushed to the end of this month. That was always the hard date for the move, so don't expect another postponement.

Re: So what's going to happen to the old forums?

Question, does this mean all of the site will be out of beta at the end of the month?

Nope. We'll still be Beta, i.e. lots of bugs to work out. The URL will just be www.funimation.com instead of http://beta.funimation.com, and we'll retire the old site and forum.

Re: So what's going to happen to the old forums?

With the forum's now closed, I am guessing the transition of Funimation.com is about to begin?

This forum is slow with all the advertisement.
