No you're not. Some people already posted before me.

I can understand completely the frustration that the URL changes are going to cause for quite some time.

The hand-entered URLs in posts will just have to be repaired by the community as we come across them. I will try to help reconstruct the bookmarks section you're talking about. And we may need to add some DIY Forum Moderators, too, so that we have at least a few people with the ability to edit posts within that forum to fix changed links as they come across them (or are reported by others).

Nope! We had already been posting for 1 1/2 to 2 hours when you posted this...

Signatures were outdated, (mine from was the time I just received RS1 and started selling SR325i) but I just fixed mine back to this date. Thanks for the hard work Jude, it was really boring without being able to surf headfi at the same time as listening music. Other headphone forums didnt really cut it. Thanks for the hard work again. This was quite a mess I presume, one which you dont want to happen again, in close future anyway.

It's like that old Cinderella song "Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone". Glad to see this place up and running.

Hats off the the people who had the thrill of trying to get everything back to normal. I'm sure it wasn't easy.

So were mine. Set back at least one month, if not more...
But I have updated my signature now, and my inventory list as well.

Have the forum, thread, and post numbers changed? I know that now the URLs are more search-engine friendly but they still have the indexes of the content in them. If the numbers are still the same, it would make it a lot easier to correct the URLs in our posts. I'm guessing they are since the database they are pulled from is the same as before.

Edit: Found a post by you in another thread about this here. My guess is that everything had to be imported by vBulletin into a whole new database, which would explain why the index numbers for content has changed.
