On the other hand 'old Retrospect forum' users should have expected Roxio would like to integrate Retrospect into its own community. And especially how the recent situation was with a very slowly operating forum and tons of spam, it seemed like nothing was being done. Turns out something was! I do hope most of the old core users will come over as well. Time will tell, but I have a good feeling about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blm14 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Glad to see you come over. We always appreciated your forum posts. it would be really, REALLY cool if the old posts from forums.dantz.com could be imported into this one. Maybe in a section "historical" or something. They are both PHPBB, no? It should be pretty easy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 The 2 forums use a very different forum engine actually. Doing an import is hard because all the user accounts would need to move over, and some user names could already exist in the Roxio forum. For now we are keeping the old forum live, and it is google searchable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
008e3f8f-ac2d-4494-8f82-24d5c4ae8d5b Posted March 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 I'm quite happy Lennart came over as well. But many core users are still 'missing'. As for searching the old forum. It's extremely/unusably slow. Searching there is not a real option at this moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 it is google searchable. As for searching the old forum. It's extremely/unusably slow. Searching there is not a real option at this moment. It is as fast as Google always is:Your search items here site:forums.dantz.com I'm quite happy Lennart came over as well. Thank you! Likewise!

jwright Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 The usefulness of the older forums is limited to a small window that is shrinking every day -- I suspect after a few months most current issues will be covered. It will just take some time. The new forums look fine. However, if I recall correctly, there used to be specific forums for the different Windows products. Have some of these products gone away? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
