Sort of. But without the charm and erudition.

Moving threads still doesn't work, nor does multiquote.

Ohhh it was the databases fault was it. Them pesky DB's

There are a few things still broken, such as several threads without an ID meaning they can't be viewed (many of them complaining about the forum being broken), but I'm supposed to be doing work for my main client right now so I won't be able to work out a fix for that until this evening

Revenge of the Cornish farmers!
