Well it seems our hosting company has gone bankrupt ***!!!*!??!**!
So we will be moving server again.
Inshallah everything will be available, and I have just backed up.
I am planning to move us to 1and1.co.uk hosting, as they have decent hosting packages.
So bear with any troubles.
(Is it a coincidence, that we also had to change servers just after issue 1 launched? or is it a conspiracy?)
conspiracy bro. sum yahoooodi's out there dnt want u on the internet, amid concerns in rise of ur popularity

ADMIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE JOKIN, PLZ SAY THIS IS ONE OF YOUR SAD SICK JOKES?????? MAN ITS NOT THE HOSTIN COMPANIES ITS YOU! IF FEEL SORRY FOR YOU BUT DONT EXPECT ME TO SYMPATHISE WITH YA
unfortunately its not me, or my jokes.
Inshallah it will all be done before anyone wakes up, minimising any hassle.
On the bright side, the new company is better known (and is not bankrupt!), should give better service, and we should not lose any data whatsoever.

so does that mean all the layout of the forum ie colour will also be changed? its a wonder admin how u find time 2 do all this changin forums etc, glad i aint in your place (in case u didnt notice thats me appreciatin all that u have done for this forum)
Heh, thanks for the appreciation.
This time I made notes on exactly how I customised the forums, so it should take all of 5 minutes to get these colours back.

Your welcome, so when we movin?
WE ARE BACK!!!!!
HURRAHHH!!!!!
I ran into a few problems (old forums were using an old db, which was corrupting the db file!), but all data should be ok. Just forum search is down, along with some php scripts I had written to get to the correct page if it was not found.
I have deleted most of the search stuff, so search will probably be slow.
I backed up at 2am lats night (most recently), so all posts made after 2am on 4 august will be lost. (I think the old forums worked until about 5pm, so its about 15 hours of stuff).
Anyone who joined after 2am on 4 august will also have to rejoin.

Mr Admin LOTS of posts are lost
why
there were posts discussing the new issues, in fact I think at least five posts from every thread and some new threads have gone missing
stuff made BEFORE 2am last night
The last post taken across is from 12:43am from what I can see.
Are you sure there are some missing? Or were they posts made during yesterday? (the old forums were taken offline while was at work, so i could not make a newer backup).
We still seem to have the same number of members and posts.
PS where is everyone? only you have posted so far.

nope
Mine is a bit slow too.
So that means I will have to look into it then.
I have a couple of quick tricks. If they don't work I will have to take a few drastic measures.
Does anyone use the search function? I know its drastic, but removing it should give us a decent speed boost. I may remove it if noone uses it. But not yet.

how much ever you hate to work, yes you have to, plus it has only been me and irfan and hayder that were on y'day so u can take that to be as everyone havin a problem with the forums being slow.
One trick down. You may soon start to see a difference. It may not be immediate.
