    Yes, we're moving again!

    The bandwidth is way over! costing me a ton!
    The host "roar" is DOA, URL to expire! Yay!

    So given the gun barrel of change is pointed at me,
    the site and boards will be on one server for once.

    Planned change when it happens will mean a 24 hour blackout time, or shoddy connect. I will warn in advance of this move.

    But the improvements:


    Dedicated Server. Not shared.,
    No limits on content. Massive bandwidth.
    I can now host large pictures, videos and more!
    I can have subdomains and no limits on PHP
    I can run a bittorrent tracker.
    I can run an FTP, user gallery, and best of all.
    An Online Shop. :smt023

    The only downside will be the Ads, but at this level of expense
    you'll need to live with them, as I have come to accept them
    because this is going to cost me a shitload of money.

    So, that's the deal, it will be unfolding in the next few weeks ahead!

    Awesome. Can't wait. Shame about the ads, but with all the new content it will be worth it.

    Yeah, this is a great place. I really think it's the best forum on the internet. I'm just surprised I haven't been banned yet :smt042

    Thanks ASSEMbler :smt023

    Hey Kevin, that's great.

    I really don't worry about ads, as long as it's keeping the site alive. And now "supercharged" :smt023

    The online shop will be a great addition and i hope it helps a lot.

    Firefox does the whole adds for me. I haven't seen one since I used Internet Explorer. :smt045
     
  12. Awesome, I can't wait to see what the changes will bring. :smt045

    And it's cool that our accounts will carry over, but it would have been funny if they didn't - we could have another race to to see who gets 1000 posts (or in some cases, 1000 spam posts ;-) :smt043 ).

    What happens after we reach 4000? Do we get a custom title? Not like I'll ever reach that, but I'm still curious.

    ASSEMbler is going from strenth to strenth :smt023 It's great to see you so dedicated to the site Kev' I've been coming here for well over 4 years now. I would feel as if one of my arms had dropped off if ASSEMbler had vanished.
