I know this can be disconcerting, we'll be making some changes over the next couple days. Anyone who wants to post, go ahead, just keep a copy for yourself just in case. There are a lot of things to configure, but of course we'll wait until we are on the new server for that.

Thanks everyone for your patience in all of this. As I said before, we had hoped to do the upgrade carefully and test everything before we opened it up to everyone. But the hackers necessitated the move, and the faulty new server means moving it all again. And as you can imagine, doing anything with a board with thus many users and posts takes time!

[Randi]

Karen, we'll be patient, so take your time and do what you need to do. What a nuisance that the first new server had a flaw.

Good luck!

[smokey the elder]

The hackers probably did something to the old site that made it no longer "safe for work". It is now, btw.

[Karen]

No, the people who attacked the old server, as far as we can tell, were using it for phishing and sending out spam attacks. I will be glad when we are on a stable machine again, and I don;t have to continually check and make sure the websites still exist!

[Karen]

We have not gotten the new server yet, we hope that will happen today, but cannot be sure. I will keep you all updated when I know anything more.
