If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Hey guys,

    The hosting company I've been with for over 10 years or so got their lease on their NY data center terminated, and somehow, the company decided that instead of moving things, they would shut down with about a month's notice to all customers.

    Fast-forward to today. We're about to move servers tomorrow or the day after. This means that you may experience DNS issues or other server-related issues. We will do our best to make the move as smooth as possible, but no one knows exactly how it will go.

    But rest assured that I and the team at the new host are working around the clock. We hope to keep problems to a minimum.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    Hey, @cayne! Has it already happened - faster than the eye could see? Or is it still to come?

    Update (sorry for the delay).

    Front page is on the new server. The forum will be moved tomorrow. Not sure exactly when. But we will most likely close the board for the duration of the move and add a message with the details about when it will be completed. We expect it to take roughly 2 hours. Maybe less.

    Dont feel any need to rush things cayne. If the forum needs to be down for everything to work well with the transfer so be it.

    Info from Cayne:

    The search page/system needs some time to get rebuilt, will take a few hours.
