Another server move/more downtime!

Post by Inder »

Just received an email from our host — they're upgrading to a cloud-based thing and are phasing out their legacy hardware, so we're moving all our stuff again!

I'm going to shift everything over to the new service towards the end of March, so I'll give a everyone a heads-up before we close the board down (to make sure we don't lose any of our beautiful posts).

This excludes Heston's polls, which I will gladly sacrifice.

Please preserve the ones where he sharted all over himself (KISS vs. New York Dolls, KISS vs. Replacements).

I assume everyone abstained out of principle on that one.

I think it went to about 15 pages. It was the first time eumaas took issue with my tastes.

Why not see if we can't mention KISS for a month? I think this is now the biggest Non-KISS, KISS forum on the internet.

We could have like a forum swearbox and if you mention KISS you have to donate a pound or dollar to a charity box.

If you refrain, odds are I will. You hold the stick that pokes me.
