pmwwwgtalkvForum | Support Forum will be Offline: 15th April (14th Apr 09 at 12:16am UTC) 15th April at 9:00 GMT (10:00 BST, 02:00 PST, 04:00 EST) | | This is just a quick heads up that I intend to take the support forum off-line for an hour or so on Wednesday 15th April. This is for a change of servers. It makes sense for the support forum to be on a machine completely separate to that of standard user forums. In the 24 hours leading up to this downtime, you may experience a slightly slower connection to the support forum. The approximate time for this downtime will be: 15th Apr 09 at 9:00am (This time is based on the Time zone set in your profile) No other forums will be affected. Sorry for any inconvenience this causes. Ross McLellan vForums.co.uk Support Team | |

We are still on schedule to take the forum offline tomorrow morning while the database is transferred (at the moment the database is acting as a remote database). | |

It's actually for both of those reasons. As you know, the support forum is often used to try out new features and by it being on an isolated maching there are no fears about any of these new features messing up another forum. | |
