Author Topic: * MAJOR UPGRADING COMING SOON * (Read 2773 times)

Hi all. During the next 2-3 days the Wildguzzi server will go down for several hours, maybe even a whole day. The server operating system is reaching its end of life, so I have to upgrade it in before the 1st of April. This is no April Fools joke.

This is quite a daunting task, and one that I cannot do alone so I am hiring some assistance. The hosts are also largely involved in helping out. That assistance is like everyone else, busy. I'm going to do my best to schedule the update to take place in the middle of the night, but not everyone likes working those hours, myself included.

So, long story short, if you happen to get failures to load over the next 72 hours, I do not need anyone to let me know about it. Trust me, I'll know.

Thanks,
Luap

Thanks for the advance notice.

I might have thought it was a problem on my end.

What's donation status? Is this an unforeseen cost that changes that?
