      Really pleased for you. (And us!) will the new server cost mega bucks? With a new year coming do we need to up the blues fees a bit? Thanks for all the hard work Charles, you get a bit fond of a website after visiting daily for more than a decade

        It's only a bit more than the previous one. Worth it if it saves me hassle and makes the experience great for you guys.

          Major server software change on Tuesday 11am UK time. Probably for a couple of hours down time. I'll do an announcement nearer the time.

            There is a Server upgrade at 11am UK Tuesday 22nd December 2015. The server will be unavailable for a couple of hours. If you want to chat in IRC, please bookmark this url: http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=bordersdown or join with your own client (#bordersdown on quakenet)
            If you are trading up to that time, I highly recommend exchanging emails in case anything goes wrong with the upgrade. I'd expect it to be smooth, but just in case like...

            Why is this happening?
            There is a newer version of vbulletin with security updates, but it depends on a newer version of PHP than I have available on the server as a prerequisite. The server upgrade will enable a newer version of PHP so that I can proceed with the vbulletin update.

                    This made me proper laugh. Which was nice after the panic.

                              Sorry if the site is a bit slow for a little - I'm running some intensive actions on a copy of the database. Doubt anyone will notice, but thought I'd mention it.
