OpenImporter should convert it automatically (while the upgrader kills itself if it detects a non-utf8 system).

Dunno what Grudge used to get up to. Spuds had my username set to render as Fart Knocker. I was wondering if you typed my username or if you actually typed Wombat.

Ok cool. Might give it a bash with a test 1.1.x db. I have one handy that is fairly sizable, and full of all sorts of mod nastiness.

If you call you the 3 worded insect usually from the Formicidae family it says Wombat.

LOL, that does look like me :P

Yeah I changed Fart Knocker to Wombat .. thought most would recognize Wombat as you, although Fart Knocker does a certain air about it :P  Be glad to change it back or to something different as well.  

here are only a handful of expletives in the filter and I changed them to odd things just to make them stand out, as well as to entertain myself with my blocks.

http://convert.bryandeakin.com/forum/

Now just working on a new look that fits my site better :P
And you still have no Wedge test site?  O:-)

When I was working on the new site I had everything wedge, elkarte and a fork I was working on that died like 3 days after I forked as I couldnt be bothered ... I went to transfer my new site to the main folder and decided to clear up so selected every folder (including the development folder but left the forum folder) and deleted them all so everything but the forum was deleted ... just not had chance to put Wedge back up ... but give me time :)
