Site Will Be Down (Saturday 3rd November)

[tradedemon]

Hi guys,

I will be taking the site down for the whole of saturday to

a) Move the site to a new server
b) Do some routine upgrades and checks on the site

So all you committed members take a break on saturday, enjoy the weather and get off your computer and go hang out with some friends. :)

Thanks

Oh and just to confirm

a) As of yet I havent taken the server down, probably in the next few hours

b) This change is to move servers so that sigbar loads a little faster and is generally more stable...

Guys just want to thank everyone for being so patient with what seems like a simple site move from 2 weeks ago. Loads of little things are happening and i apologise for the mim emergency site takedowns, but im hoping all the testing and stability willl finally return soon.

Im hoping for a final move date sometime this week and will keep you all posted.

thanks

no need to apologise trade....... v understand......... :)

I have just moved the site to a new server, and DNS changes are propogating as we speak,for most access should be back to normal within 30-60 mins, for others it might take a little longer..

Since we have moved its possible that certain site features are no longer working, please do let me know if there are any problems so i can attend to them as soon as possible.

I know for certain that this might not have been a clean move and i do forsee problems , but im here to resolve them so hopefully we should get along just fine.

thanks all

apparently some ppl were having problems uploading images
none that i can see tho. everything is running smoothly for me
yay! for the new site ^^

[tradedemon]

thanks for the feedback wolf... Lets see what happens tommorrow when more people come online....

Im also still migrating some of the images from the old server to here, so if you go to recently added some images are missing but they will be back soon.

[tradedemon]
