Server Migration Notice

Post by **Midnight Synergy** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 4:08 am

Hello folks,

just to let you know that I have ordered a new server to run the site and this forum on, and will be migrating to that server in the coming days. There will likely be a few hours of service interuption, and there might be some other hiccups (hopefully - keep your fingers crossed - nothing major). The actual migration might not occur until after the weekend, but this is just a heads up. I will update once migration is complete.

Hopefully the extra expense will help give you guys a smoother forum experience.

Patrick

...and hopefully the extra expense won't mean you're living in a cardboard box while we're on here "blah, blah, blah-ing".

Hope it all goes smoothly.

Oh, don't worry about me. There are some stunning cardboard boxes around here. Beautiful views of the overpass!

Home Improvement tip:

Marry two cardboard boxes together with duct tape to provide a stunning extra family room!!

I've found appliance boxes work best, heavy duty cardboard & rather roomy, if ya combine 2 or 3 together it makes a nice little condo

Whatever? double post mette

You do realize that this double post that mette had was because of the server lagging so bad?

And no, your double posts aren't the server's fault - you have one message, and then a double post as another message entirely, but anyone who suffered this double-post glitch has the same post twice in a row.

Well, I know how mine happened..it was because when I clicked submit it stalled and stalled so I hit submit again and it stalled and stalled so I hit submit again...etc....and that wasn't the first time it had happened to me.

Does it? It doesn't seem to happen to me.

Which type of connection are you using? Dial-up? If so, that could be the reason why it lags.

Don't worry, be happy.

It happened when the forum was on the old server, before your time.

Yup, it happened on the old server. I have DSL.
Fast vrrrrroom...........
