cheers all :)

there will be another couple of hours of downtime required either later this week or some time over the weekend while i move the database

this one will definitely involve the forum being offline for a bit because i need to backup the database, download the backup, re-upload the backup to the new servers and then restore the backup to the new empty db

as i say, that will be either toward the end of this week or some time over the weekend... i'll let you know more when i work out when i'll have the time :)

thanks for you patience - i know its been a bit up & down the last few weeks :roll: :lol:

hopefully, this next one should see us right for some time - or at least until we upgrade to phpbb3 ;D :innocent:

Well, it's all appreciated and if stuff needs doing then we can't really moan if you take the time to do it right.

All good stuff so far.... :notworthy:
