No, the forum isn't starting anew.. the site however is being upgraded. During the data migration process, the entire site is copied from (old) server A to (new) server B.
Throughout this migration process, we continue to use server A. When the transfer is complete, we flip the switch and start using the server B.
The migration is happening right now, so anything you post is going onto server A. As such it may not show up when server B comes online.
That was the long way of saying that anything you post now could possibly disappear after the migration is done.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain

So that means I can call you a Removed by Mod and a Removed by Mod and also state that I feel you should Removed by Mod and not worry about any repercussions at all? Awesome!

 I'm sure it's all tentative at this point, but do you have any idea how long this switching process will take?

I don't like change.  I'm sure it'll be super. ^^ I was wondering why the site was down yesterday. I guess it's time to use this opportunity to come up with some awful Brackenwood fanfiction.

I don't like change. It's the technology under the hood that's changing. The forum will look the same, behave the same and probably even load at the same speed. The difference is that it'll be running on modern server technology instead of something from 2003. It also means we'll easier be able to handle traffic spikes, it'll be more intuitive to manage upgrades and new software installs and best of all, more security features to combat spam and hacks. So that means I can call you a Removed by Mod and a Removed by Mod and also state that I feel you should Removed by Mod and not worry about any repercussions at all? Awesome!
EXACTLY, you Removed by Mod

I don't like you. You don't get the jokes. Sorry, maybe that was too mean. Anyway.
I'm not that resistant to change, t'was but a mild jest. ^^ If I were, I'd probably have jumped under a train looking back on the last year. XD But better security and easier management all sound like awesome reasons. And it probably is time for an update. :3

I can't imagine how it could be more validated. Unless he started throwing poop at his computer. Perhaps he already has.
Dear Mr. DeityDarkLink;
Be nice Woo. The Mods/Admins will step in when required. We know sometimes new people take awhile to come round to the way things run here... give him time. - Eye
PS: Stop quoting posts that are directly above you if possible. If you're referring to a comment made several posts ago that is acceptable. Otherwise most people can hazard a reasonable guess as to what you're referring to. I know this is a petty gripe but for some reason it grates on me none the less.
