Hey everyone, just a quick heads up. I'm going to be moving the site between servers tonight sometime, not exactly sure when but you'll know when its happening.
The current site will be "closed." If I remember it shows a "this board has been disabled blah blah blah" or something like that. Then I'll get all the database and files synced, and get everything pointed to the new machine. When you see that message disappear, it means you're on the new server. Hopefully you won't see it for more than like 10-15 minutes, but if your ISP plays games and caches DNS or other weird stuff it could be longer. Either that or I'm running into problems and its taking longer than I planned lol.
This is totally unrelated to the upgrade, which is coming real soon still. I just need to get the site moved to the new hardware. Then worry about the upgrade.
Just a heads up if you see that message. Don't panic. I don't plan on doing it until after 10pm CDT or so.
