Site Maintenance
« on: June 16, 2016, 09:36:50 PM »
Hi everybody.

I have been trying to migrate the server all day (unsuccessfully).

Sorry for the blackout.

I will try again later in the weekend (maybe Sunday)

 :(

Site successfully migrated this afternoon - hopefully for the last time...

I had to prune the Private Messages a bit as there were 65,000 of them dating back to 2003 (37Mb of disc space). This made the database too big to easily move.
I deleted all but the last 12 month's worth so now only 16,000 PMs in the system at 12Mb.

Apologies to anyone who worries about things like this. I have the whole database backed-up on my PC so if anyone really REALLY wants an old message, I could probably restore it.
