We're wiping the Zelaron server tonight to prevent this horrible staggering, and upgrading Linux while we're at it. Expect some downtime later on.

Hmmm. Will ANY posts be lost, and at around what time would the downtime be starting? (If you know that is).

Let's hope not.

We should be all right this time. We're just waiting for John (our web host) to get online before we can start.

Oh, and go idle in IRC while you're at it.

1) Download mIRC: http://www.mirc.com

2) Connect to irc.asylumnet.org
The command for doing this, which is to be typed in the System window of mIRC is: /server irc.asylumnet.org

3) Join the channel #zelaron
You can do this by typing /join #zelaron in the System window.

Thanks for the notice.

On a side-note, your avatar is going to give me nightmares.

John? I thought you guys had changed host and bought your dedicated server??

Good job guys, looks like everything is up and running correctly.

Chruser · Posted 2004-07-18, 11:25 PM in reply to Chruser's post "Reinstall"

Just a few minor things that aren't done yet. Stuff like attachments, quick reply, etc., but that will be done after all the important updates are made. Yay for Zelaron!

Okay, we're still not finished, but the forums are usable. We aren't going to worry about not-quite-working features untill things are in their final positions. Expect more downtime tomorrow afternoon/evening.
