Site Update - 12:24 PM EST | Posted By: Elm

Hello,

We will be upgrading one of our primary web servers this weekend and this will require some limited downtime. This maintenance is scheduled to begin early on Saturday, November 4th, 2006. We will do our best to keep the downtime to a minimum.

This upgrade is intended to improve stability, performance and security for our primary web server.

Of course, during the time I needed it most.

Well, if I needed it, it would have been this weekend.

This upgrade will permit us to upgrade to newer software and a new server. The hope is that we can improve performance, load times and also better stability for the network. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please note that this maintenance will have no affect on our forums and they will remain available throughout this process.

Regards,

It says the forums should not be effected and that main pages were being upgraded. But the forums are down stratics wide and some of the pages have already been upgraded. Its as if the forums were removed or were accidently deleted. I hope nothing happened to the forums.

I noticed all the forum files seem to be gone, which is abit odd
Normally when you upgrade a forum, you overwrite them with the newer ones, then run an upgrade script, not delete them.
