Yup, you read the title right, Wyrd is moving to a new server! We've put up with the old one for entirely too long and we know that it has been a bit of a burden for those of you who have been active in our forums (for which we're grateful).

The site will be moving Saturday night to Sunday morning, starting at 9pm PST to 2am PST. The forums on the old server will be put in maintenance mode to facilitate the move and once the DNS has propogated (remember to clear caches) you'll find us on our brand new shiney server which is quite a bit beefier than our current setup, which will be ready for posting so that no posts are lost in the move.

Best,
Nathan

Does this have anything to do with the new design of the website that has been mentioned, or is that scheduled for a later date?

We're hoping to have the new Wyrd website up middle of June, early July. This server move is purely due to bad service at our current host.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand ... the move is complete.

If you see anything odd or something doesn't work the way it used to, please let us know immediately so that it can be tracked down.

Big thanks to Matt (Goblyn13) for putting in the time and effort to make this happen. Thank you.

Still working on it. I probably fat fingered it.

In the mean time, site seems a good deal faster on my end, let me know if the difference has shown up for ya'll please.

Definite improvement. I've not tried any big posts yet but the surfing end of things are super.
