[OUTAGE] We're moving into new digs! (the sequel)

[chrisplough]

As our Hosting center has evolved, we've begun replacing some of the original servers with more powerful ones. As a result, the Forums are again moving to a more powerful server on Saturday 1/5. The outage will be minimal and hopefully most people will be enjoying the holidays, rather than playing on the OTMFAQ site! (Though, be sure to come back in force afterwards!).

As a result of the move, the forums will be running on a server that is roughly twice as fast and scalable, allowing us to stay ahead of our growth curve.

Thank you for your patience

Thanks!

All - I've updated the date of the outage, due to a family emergency which has come up. I'm currently out of town, focusing on my family and will be able to migrate the server over to the new hardware 1/5, instead of the previously scheduled date.

Thank you for your patience.

Just to follow up on the upgrade -- we've now been running on the new server hardware for a while without issue. I've noticed that our searches are considerably faster and the server load is very low. All of these mean that we have a better, more responsive site and can handle more users -- so Post away!

Of course - if you experience any issues, feel free to drop me a line.

Thanks!
