    We're BACK!!!!

    Time to Celebrate!!!!

    Sounded like a massive failure that had to all be dealt with at the same time. Good work! Thanks for bringing the board back.

        From what I understand (as I "reported a problem" to send the people as much virtual support that I could- encouragement is a good thing)- there was a big power failure that took down a lot of hardware. So the down time was not for an upgrade- it was for survival.

        Which kind of suggests that every once in a while, an ad should be clicked through to get some revenue.

          One of the times I checked a Xenforo board was what popped up...I had a moment of hope the upgrade was coming during the down time. But alas...

            For a while did say they would do it at the same time. I guessed they couldn't chew gum and walk at the same time. :-)

              It wasn't fun. We had two servers with multiple virtual machines. One server with several virtual machines had its drives and motherboard fried. We had been planning to move to a completely cloud-based set up instead of our own hardware this summer. Fortunately we had a current database for the Fan Forum. We also had to restore our server with stats and the app server as well as the bracket challenge.

              So we've migrated the Fan Forum to a new cloud server for now and hope to move from vBulletin to Xenforo in the offseason for much better performance. We were trying to do it now but it was too much to do all at once, so we decided to just get this back up and running.

                      Thank you Ed for letting us know. Glad you all were able to at least get it back up and running.

                          Thanks Ed, the withdrawal symptoms were getting bad, and I don't even post nearly as much anymore.

                            Thanks for the info, Ed. Server migrations are a huge pain.

                              Adding my thanks too! The icon on my tab changed. I got a bit lost because when I scanned across the top the usual logo was gone. This one is retro.
