Default Message Board shutdown planned

Hi everyone,
I'm sure you've noticed that a few bugs are popping up here on the site as of late. Basically...we've maxed out the server that currently hosts the board. I just got done testing the board we've set up on a new server (it works great), but we're going to need to shut the board down for a day (maybe two) starting Tuesday.

Basically, we've got to take the Terabytes of information from the current server and shift it over to the new server. While this is happening, you'll still be able to read messages, but you will not be able to post any new messages.

This should eliminate many of the bugs (basically, we haven't been able to update the forum software because we don't have the capacity, which is causing the bugs). It should be a seamless switch...Everything should stay the same (passwords, usernames, etc.).

If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a hollar!

Best regards,
Bob Duncan
Technical Editor

MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.
