Quoted items will now collapse into their top 7 lines of text (same will go for photos).

There will be a 'read more' button to expand the whole quote.

Look at this post for an example:

To the guy who emailed me about changing your username: Please PM me here directly as I believe the email you gave me to respond to is incorrect. Cheers.

500/502 errors in profiles, the classifieds, status updates etc. are fixed. Appreciate the patience from you all. Just have a couple of edits to make to the classifieds to make and we're back to normal business.

A quick reminder that the forums will be going down for part of today in order to be migrated. Don't be too worried.

We've just migrated so there might be some general buggy-ness, downtime or just slow speeds for the next couple of days.

If you're having as serious issue with the forums related to the move then consider posting here:

Tonight (Friday)/this morning (Saturday) the forums are archiving everything more than 2 years old and resizing/compressing oversized images.

You'll still be able to look up these threads but they'll be on another table in the database (again, this shouldn't affect your experience at all - it's just technical stuff). Should improve performance marginally but is mostly future proofing against using up too much disk space or the database becoming too big to read rapidly.

There might be a slow down whilst this happens as it's moving ~27,000 topics and resizing ~33,000 image thumbnails. Full sized images will be resized through Saturday.

For a lot of you this should reduce your total attachment sizes (allowing for you to upload more). Remember you can visit https://airsoft-forums.uk/attachments/ to delete your unwanted images.
