Server move, unavoidable downtime.

[JordanBlack68]

Seems it went ok, well done

Went pretty fast, well done.

Thanks !

Really what I meant with downtime was that we'd have to lock the old forums to prevent data mixup. Nima and I spent the last few days making sure everything would be fine ahead of time

 

[Sir_Axxewraith]

Any hint on what the new updates are ?

 

[NeilR]

Sorry. You'll have to wait for the upcoming announcement(s).

 

[Hellcat]

New features? Yay!
/me likes new features

Can't wait

This is place is getting better and better and more and more fun to be (the later is mostly caused by the ppl hanging around here, tho but supported by a "nice home" )

I don't seem to be able to post links. If I try and post one I get a white screen.

Tried it in IE and FF.

There appears to be an error in the 'replace links with page titles' product we are using. We'll look into it.

Thanks for the report, this should be sorted now

If it isn't or if you come across any other issues, please let us know!

*out of curiosity*
Was the server move needed? was the site lagging?
Not being an ass or nothing just was curious.
I take it you guys or on a VPS or DD now after the move?

 

[Abe Froeman]

Yes, the server move was needed. Our current provider was fine, but we discussed an alternate, more cost effective solution with better specs and decided to change.

Every time I click "New Posts", I get this message...

This forum requires that you wait 15 seconds between searches. Please try again in 1 seconds.

It appears to be broken.

 

[Abe Froeman]

Even after the 15 second flood control it says that?

It always says "Please try again in 1 seconds." no matter how long I wait.

I guess it's a problem with the SearchID not releasing. So when you click it, it sees a valid search id still and doesn't issue a new one.

Top stats on the front page is working tho so in the mean time you can use that for viewing new posts.
