1. This is just a notice to inform you that we will move the forum to a new server sometime during the next few weeks. The actual process should not last more than a few hours; during this process, we will disable replying and creating new posts. As soon as we know the date for the transfer, we will update with more information.

    Just wanted to clarify one thing, we never lost access to the forum software or the content of the forum. That is all hosted on our server, so we have full access to it. And the data is also continuously backed up, so in the event of a server failure the forum will be restored to the point it was when the server failed.

    The issue we faced was related to the old domain name itself, since we have no control over it (don't own it, or have access to the domain account it is tied to). So when it changed the dns servers from ours to a different one, the forum went down.

    With the current domain, this will not be a problem as we do own it. It will just take some time now to get people used to coming to this domain instead of the old one.

    Yeah y'all can basically think of it as a telephone number.

    It suddenly was cut off so all the nice forum stuff was still running but not reachable anymore using that number.

    Ah, it surprises me we did own the server itself but not the domain. Ah well, glad it was fixed quickly and that a similar enough domain was available. The only thing still not entirely back-up are google's search results. Those still point towards the old site mostly.

    The good thing for us at least: omit the dash and it works. But yeah for other google users it is not that easy. I fear there's nothing we can do about that though.

    It's sad that the majority of army specific boards have died off

    I think the hierarchy of the Lizardmen seems to be alluding some of you. It is the Slann issue commands to the underlings, not the other way around. :D


    What's with the triple post? Three posts 1 minute apart each. You know you can quote all those messages in a single post. Still trying to artificially boost those numbers I see. ;)

    Actually no. I just reply as I'm reading, and forget to use the multiquote feature.

    And the slaan are the only ones with the power and mental fortitude for the task
