The EVE Online Forums will experience a short transition to read only mode on the morning of May 25th, while essential maintenance is carried out.
While the forums will still remain available to read, the ability to post will be unavailable from 06:00 - 07:00 UTC tomorrow, May 25th, 2018.
Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause!

But what is so silly about identyfing the poster by avatar you can see, big and clear?

Forum maintenance is tomorrow. Server maintenance was today.
Two different things.
