Sometime in the coming days, the forums will become read only while we move to a new server. The downtime will be as short as possible, but could last up to three days.

Thank you for your patience.

The server move announced a few weeks ago will take place sometime this weekend, probably  Saturday or Sunday night.

The reason for the delay is that I wanted to transfer all my sites one at a time. Because of that, I can predict that, barring any unforeseen issues,  the downtime will be minimal. The other two efiction/smf sites that I transfered experienced no difficulties so  hopefully all will go well here too.

Thanks for your patience!

I"m sure it will go fine. I just need a good time when there aren't a lot of people online. But there are always people here lately. πŸ˜‰

Maybe later tonight...

The server move is not complete. If you can see this, you're on the new server. πŸ™‚

Please let me know if there are any issues that need addressing.

It was rocky for a bit but it's looking pretty stable now. Ah, as for SMF, there's been 2 upgrades (it's now at 1.14, log in as admin and go to admin, there should just be a message saying there's an update click here. It's very smooth (unless you have a lot modded in your forum).

Thanks. I haven't upgraded SMF because when I upgraded last time, something happened and I had to remove it. I'll try it now that the move is done.
