Server move 20th November 2013

Morning,

I will be moving the SAFooty forum to a new server this evening. The process should take around 90 minutes, but because of DNS changes, you might not be able to access the site for UP TO 24 hours. It should be less than that, so by morning things should be ok.

Please check Twitter/Facebook for any updates

Thanks.

Move complete

If you are reading this, you are accessing SAFooty on the new server.

Hopefully all goes well

Only issue you may encounter is that your avatar might not work. Please re-upload

Avatars should be restored now, I hope.

I might be the only one, but I can't seem to get it to work through tapatalk... Still just spins saying "Moving Server"...

Fine via the work PC which will get me through the day, but I needed my SAFooty fix via the phone last night and couldn't get it...

It can take up to 24 hours to work on some cases but that's just how it is. I've seen a lot of people get in ok.

I just reinstalled TapaTalk and things were fine.

I have the same thing, often with the Things That Give You the Shits and Things You Don't Understand topics, I go into the topic and it says on the last page I've been banned from viewing the topic. I can still read the previous pages. Again, help please?

Cheers for the sarcasm.

Anyway, I've fixed it now.

Blame Norwood.

I'm missing the link to safooty from the Redleg Talk site...

But I'm getting used to the new safooty site and haven't had any problems apart from preferring a less white background.
The log in seems to be quicker than it was before the change.

The link to mark the forums read before logging out is handy for us slightly obsessional individuals.

I had it in a similar spot to the Roost, near the top next to links for profiles, FAQs, etc
