The forum that was located at:
http://www.randomfandom.com/phpBB2/
Has been updated and moved to forum.randomfandom.com
I had planned to move it next week, but a test run I did this weekend came out perfect so I decided to move up the date. (Also I was afraid I wouldn't be able to do it again. ^^; )
The forum software changed so much that required a new install, and then conversion. The good news is that means that if something went wrong, the old forum is there with no changes. The bad news is that the new install, even though all the users, posts, topics and pms have been copied over, had to be moved to a new location.
I'd actually wanted to do that anyway because the old location was spambait. Now the forum has it's very own spiffy subdomain. Old links to the forum are semi-broken, as any link will take you to the message that the domain has moved. I hope to find a solution to that soon (I've heard you can do something with your .htaccess file, but it sounds all very complicated...I will have to do some more studying.)
