Server Migration

*Update* 7 Apr 2013 - Okay, after a very long week of getting everything working correctly on the new server, I'm finally finished! I will be taking the website (and ingame client server for those of you in the alpha) offline sometime in the wee hours of the morning tonight.  I will then point the DNS for the website at the new server.  It shouldn't take more than a few hours for most people to be re-directed, but it may take up to a few days.  Unfortunately, DNS propagation is out of my control, but most people will experience very little interruption in service.

As a friendly reminder, all data on the website will be rolled back to 31 March 2013. Any combat logs uploaded to the website after that date will need to be re-uploaded tomorrow.  Thanks.

*Update* 2 Apr 2013 - I have run into some issues during the data transfer that have greatly slowed the process.  The migration is still proceeding, but at a rather slow pace. It may be a few more days before everything is migrated. In the meantime, feel free to use the website as normal, just remember that data will still be rolled back to 31 Mar 2013. Thanks.

*Update* 1 Apr 2013 0145 PST - Just wanted to give everyone an update and let you know that I have transferred everything from the old server to the new server. I'll be getting everything setup and then switching the site over to the new server. This means that any combat log data uploaded to the website from Sunday 31 Mar will need to be re-uploaded once the migration is complete.  As long as everything goes smoothly, this should be done sometime today.

Hey everyone. I am currently in the process of migrating servers.  The website may become unavailable for an extended period of time. I will remove this post when the migration is complete. Thank you!
