Attention people, tomorrow (Wednesday) at 8PM EST, 11PM GMT, 1AM CET we are going to receive a server upgrade. This will involve moving over all files from our current server to the new, stronger one and as such the board will be closed for a while (most likely 1 up to 4 hours - keep in mind we're talking about the *whole* website) to make sure nobody's posts or topics will go missing.

So if you want to make a big post or topic somewhere, either do it before that time, or save it for later ;)

I think you need to post exactly how long it's going to take so we know when to log back in. To the minute, Glode. D:< You can predict that, right?

Heh. Nice to hear there will be a better server. :) Cheers.

Has this got anything to do with the recent amount of lag/crashing Rv has been doing lately?

So I guess the answer is yes, but just to make sure: Will the chat be down as well?

Yeah, is this a patch for the lags?

RV crashed 3-4 times yesterday on me.

Runevillage the forum is pretty well much done. Runevillage the group will eventually die, but as long as we're still friends with each other in the end, it's still a pretty big thought in our heads. Runevillage the family is forever, no matter where we settle down. If absolutely nothing else ever comes of Runevillage in the future, that alone is a pretty damn awesome thought.

Seeing this whole server is going to be left behind: yes, the chat will be going down as well at a certain moment. But according to me, it will still work while they're making the back-up. Unlike in the forums, it doesn't really matter too much whether or not the information you entered is brought over to the new server or not.

If you want to see the specifications of our old server and the new one we're getting (still shared with other people though), feel free to PM me.

The lag/crashes we used to have are most likely due to someone we're sharing the server with. So sadly enough it is out of my reach. I checked everywhere and I'm pretty sure we can't be blamed for the outages. If we would be to blame, it would be due to the many Bots/Webcrawlers we get at our site.

Most likely. You do have to open the forums to get to the chat room, after all.

Good to hear about the server update, hopefully it makes everything better.

Moose got me all confused on that thinking it was done. Guess I won't be on chat tonight then with mostly everything going down for a while. Hope all goes swimmingly :)

Wait wait wait, the info on the new sever isn't meant to be public? D:

It'll be nice to move onto something new. Get a bit faster, hopefully. xD The PM interface was working nicely last night, but each time I went to load a page both me and Hiker got massive lag, so I know its not just me or my area. It sucked. :(
