Live on our new server. April 2016

Post by VelvetGeorge » Tue Apr 26, 2016 1:12 pm

Security issues and server flops lead us to pull the forum down recently.

I'm happy to announce we have migrated to a new server (away from the Godaddy mess we've be hosted on for the past several years) and the forum software is up to date and secure. The color scheme is updated also, in line with our new metropoulos.net scheme.

This is a long term solution, implemented with longevity in mind.

The database for this forum is large and has been through a lot over the years. In 2014 the malicious attack caused us to lose many files uploaded as attachments. Unfortunately, those files could not be brought back.

If you find quirks, please let me know. We are working through it.

Sorry for the down time and thanks for your patience.

George
