Default Announcement: Server Move 1/20/09
Sometime today (Jan 20) we will be moving servers. I'm not sure on the exact time, but expect the forums to be closed shortly before and while the server is moved.

Congratulate yourselves, you've managed to burn down another perfectly good server so now we need a new one

This server will be located in Washington DC instead of Dallas so the latency should be much better for a vast majority of users.

If there are any unforseen delays I'll update this announcement.

It is looking increasingly unlikely that the move will happen today.

Need to get mail server sorted out before I take the database offline and I'm not planning on staying up all night to do the transfer

Well, I've been fighting with the mail server WAY longer than I had planned, and still not working

If any IT people wanna chime in on setting up a MTA with virtual domains/users, feel free to send me a PM.

I'll fight with it a little more tomorrow, but behind on sleep now
