The Site Will Be Off Line

D
doodirock

Just a little FYI, the site will be going down sometime this week around Thursday April 26th for at least a couple days. I need to finalize a bunch of old mods I have been working on, tie up the SCC testing, and try to optimize the site a little more to get things running a bit faster. I should have everything completed in about 2-3 days and I'll post the exact time when I figure it out.

Why am I doing this? The site hasn't had any real maintenance in a long time and things are really starting to get mucked up on the inside. Im starting to forget what files are and why I wrote some of the code which is never a good sign. If things go well it could be a simple 3 hour process, but things never do when it comes to the backend of this site. So hopeful the outage wont be more then 2 days max. Just make sure you watch the forums and the site news for more information.

FYI: I am going to try and get site chat up while everyone waits you at least have something to do with your time.

I'll be busy on Wednesday and Thursday next week, so schedule your downtime then. OK? Thanks.\r \r If you cannot accommodate my selfish schedule, I hope you are prescribing some kind of transdermal patch or medication for the withdrawal symptoms. I'll pick up the meds at my local Costco. Thanks, Doodi.\r \r Sug

\"If things go well it could be a simple 3 hour process...\"\r \r in the computer world, this kind of thinking leads to an outage that takes more than a week. :)

I'm kind of new here and I thought the site was pretty well done as is, but good luck anyway.\r \r But please don't \"improve\" like bungie did to their site. B4 it was easy to navigate. Now it's more corporate like Microsoft - lots of info that can't be found.
