Server moving

Posted on Wed Mar 1st, 2017 @ 5:46am by Jonur Pak

Can I have everyone's attention please, this is your resident Moonmoon, and I have an important announcement.
Effective from right now, the Dreadnought will be placed into Maintenance Mode, which means the site will be down.
I am expecting to be able to bring the site back online in 72 hours, possibly longer if things do not go smoothly.

Now for the why.
Our current host will be closing his server down, the big cat has bought his own hosting and we are going to be moving the Dreadnought over to it. The reason why it is so long is the DNS servers take 48 hours to fully propagate a change of address across their network.
I am expecting the transition over to the new hosting to be smooth and that there will be no data lost.

Now, I know this is a long post, please bare with me.
What I suggest for everyone who are writing posts, particularly joint posts, either swap over to google docs, or just write it in emails back and forth to eachother.
Everyone should have the latest copies of their posts in their emails.

If anyone has any problems, please contact me, I am on Skype at Moonsword86, and my email is shighet @ bigpond .com .

Regards

Your resident Moonmoon.
