    Posted: 06 Dec 2011 at 5:56pm
We're in the process of upgrading our old legacy website servers to some new very powerful monsters. Get ready to experience a very zippy and fast website just in time for the new year. I wanted to apologize ahead of time if you notice issues with the website until then. Our team will do their best to iron out any issues as quickly as possible. Process should be complete by the end of this month.

I've been suspicious that this was necessary for basically the entirety of my time here, so I'm glad to see its happening! Awesome

Have the new servers been implemented? I'm still having login issues with the forums.

Especially after I log in and I try to read a thread from Technical Assistance -- it says Access Denied and I have to re-login.

I noticed when I login to the forums, I always have to re-login in order to view any postings from the Technical Assistance sub forum. I clean my cookies regularly via CCleaner and I still experience the problem.

Was wondering if anyone else has been having this problem.

The team setup a test unit to do a simulation of the new servers. Everything went well. They are now working on the actual servers and migrating everything.

Flipping around is definitely faster. Big%20Smile  From your time stamps looks like you pulled an all-nighter.  Been there, done that.

Time is wrong in the settings or something, I keep posting in some threads and instead of my post being the last one, it ends up as the second to last

Yep, time stamps from Friday are showing up on Saturday as "Today" not "Yesterday", plus what DST said of re-order of posts.

Is anyone else having issues with the on-site file management system? Every time I try to delete a file since the migration I get an error message.

We fixed the issue and increased the maximum size for user uploads from 5MB to 25MB. Strong
