Upcoming server migration

Upcoming server migration - 05/05/2009 17:29

The server the boards are hosted on will be migrated to a new machine sometime in the next week. This is to avoid some of the capacity issues that brought down the boards due to another site being hammered.

DNS entries were set to a very low TTL a few days back to minimize downtime, but it is possible the boards may be inaccessible for a bit after the move. Please keep this in mind if you experience any issues in the next week.

I'll post a better ETA for when the actual switchover occurs once I know more. Overall, it should be seamless for most people.

This should be done now.

This isn't a vBulletin board, so you might not see the speedup we're seeing on the other, troublesome forum, but that one sure is faster now.

Any problems, please let drakino know.
