MIG Server Downtime

Ladies and Gents

During the next 7-10 days MIG will be offline for a period of apporximately 48 hours.

We are changing our hosts following a lack of support and slow responce from their support team along with upgrading the VB software to the latest VB3.6 (i believe) at the same time.

So when the site comes back online we will be on a new server, along with the latest board software which should cure the problems you have been experiencing and for those with other issues, these should be resolved as well.

At the moment the downtime could be wednesday/thursday or it could be over the weekend, but it will be over 48 hours.

Thanks for your patience while we try and finally solve this problem.

Tom W

Good stuff!

Tom, it says 24 hours at the top and 48 at the bottom, which one is it more likely to be?

Will it restore the who is viewing facility as well?

The bit at the bottom of the page where it says who is viewing a thread!

48 hours, man that will be like a visit to the priory for some of us!

Might get something done with the car at least!

Strange i hadn't seen that gone, if stuff isnt there when it comes back then we should be able to get it back.

let us get the server move and basic upgrade done and then sort the little bits

Any chance of certain gagging orders being extended for 48 hours also to compensate?

most "cruise" sites are the same. it makes for hard reading IMO. Jason, you are allowed avatars, you just need to pay the membership fee you cheapskate .
