Everyone seems to be getting in a state of defence when these rules are broken, but that's not exactly the right approach...
It's a wrong signal... some people might start thinking that it's only to protect us, not them...but that's not it...it's the other way around...
There will always be people who break rules, some even like doing so, it's so exciting, especially if nobody can find out about it anyway...
For some people, that last part is too boring, so they start playing with the rulekeepers...for them, it's only a game and there can never be enough excitement...
Some people just don't like to be dictated what to do...(He Mr. know-it-all, I will show you...I do what I like!!!)
Forbidden fruit...they will always be eaten...
But if you just tell everyone why it is forbidden (poisson)...oh man, nobody (exept the suicidal ones) will even try...
We can never do better than give as much advice as possible...and always try to give that as clear as possible...
Anyone not following that advise, would have to know what they can expect...
We can't stop everyone from that, but they will have to face the consequences on their own... It just isn't our problem...
Then all they can do, is start all over again...they have done it to themselves and can't blame anyone else...
Unfortunatly all this is none of my business, in fact, it's not my business at all ...
I'm just a busdriver

Yeah I could end this problem and probably get my live forum running on my new server with 1.4.1 no later than tomorrow morning. But what if a new beta comes out that I can't upgrade to? Then just like Helter, I am stuck.
Or who's to say that dozens of problems don't suddenly arise and then they decide to cancel the beta testing and everyone has to wait for Integramod 2.0 now? Maybe far fetched but it could happen, then just like Helter I would be stuck once again.
hehe...I don't do it because I'm scared to do it. But don't think I dont' want to...I would love to have my forum running on my new server tomorrow. You know you're a true geek when you get giddy over a new faster server.

Have not and will not switch my live site to 141 and I am running it on a test site and will continue to report if any errors are found.
I'm also trying to learn PHP and will look into sql and intent do help when possible.
Thanks

I only did this to test it because forumimages is a dead site since I have moved all the content and support here to integrmod.com
Im not sure why ppl are having trouble doing this. Perhaps the difference is that my host is php4x
now here is why it is extremely foolish to do so. My main site is duiplayground.com. and I built it on integramod 132. I did all the updates as they became available up to 132d. By adding additional mods I broke my forum and try as I might, I could not fix it by overwritting it with the default 132d files. Out of desparation I updated to 132e, which was beta and also came with the same "do not use on a live forum" warnings. It worked and I thought my problems were solved. 132e never made it out of beta, so as phpbb updates were released, i was stuck. Orphaned! When the 140 updates were released they did not work for me. I could not ask for support, because I had broken the #1 rule of being a beta tester. My guess is I spent over 100 hours learning just enough sql and php to install 140. So now I speak from experience that it is critical not to use beta software on a live forum. Had I asked for support, the support staff would have wasted alot of time and probably not been able to fix my problems due to the fact that my code varied from thiers

You say you followed the guys here from the old site; you didnt have to, you chose to. Could always choose to go back there and see how good the support is?
In all honesty if I was to ask a question like that I would be expecting some seriously harsh comments.....and as such would be wearing my asbestos suit
).Anyway, no need to keep going on about this; I have already apologised for asking. <img>

riiiiggght, judging by the maturity of your answer, I assume this is not advisable.
Thanks I was not going to "move" it as such but rather copy db as well as data over for further testing. But thanks anyway.

Yes it was.... get over yourself.
I followed you guys here to the new site and had no real issues with the other to be honest and always got the answers I needed with a good attitude.
I'm sorry if I didn't make myself clear and I'm sure you've answer this many times already but as they say here... SHIT HAPPENS!
There's a certain way to go about things.
Have a nice day <img>

The good news for you if you're excited to get your forum upgraded is that I'm not seeing any major errors in the script other than the error I incurred while trying to install it on my PHP5 server which is a minor fix because the site worked when I moved it over, just couldn't get the initial install to work. So I suspsect 1.4.1 won't be in beta version for too horribly long. Looks like the great coders of IntegraMod di a really great job writing this code.
