The previous incarnation of IVC used a free forum by Invision.
The owners of the server on which we resided, upgraded MySQL (the database
behind the forum). The new MySQL changed reserved words and as a result
our forum crashed.
(For those who wish to know - our forum contained mods (moderators)
and the software referred to a mod as a mod. Sounds obvious, but in
the latest version of MySQL, mod stands for module, not moderator. Therefore,
all references to mods in the Invision software were misinterpreted,
and resulted in the crash).
The new (YaBB) version does not use a MySQL database so nothing was
retrievable from the old forum.
This new forum is in its infancy and will probably seem (and look) very
strange, but since Invision no longer provide a free version of their
software we don't have much choice, other than to try and knock this
one into shape.
