In the near future, Framers Corner will be physically moving to a different server within the same data center. In short, we're moving to a new server that has been tested to be up to 1200% faster. It's a distributed, redundant, highly available, self-healing SSD (solid state drive) based server.
You don't have to do anything, but expect that there could be 1-3 hours of downtime when this change happens. We don't expect any problems, and wont lose any posts. The forum should look exactly the same afterwards, but will be even faster.
There is a 50/50 possibility that you may have to log in again, after this change happens. If so, please make a note of your user name and password.
We will post an exact date and time when we have confirmation with the engineers at the data center, but it will be between 8/25 - 9/15. (probably at the earlier end of that scale)
We just want to give a heads up in case you visit in the near future and the system is temporarily down. If that happens, it will be back within the hour
Best regards
Mike for the FC support team
