Loss of Domain Access: 9/8/2010
« on: September 07, 2010, 05:17:48 PM »
Good afternoon, everyone.

We're having a bit of a dispute with the current holder of our domain name. We're trying to switch domain holders, but at the moment, the current domain holder is being a bit stupid with releasing the name. Long story short, we may be losing domain access as of Midnight EST tonight.

If this happens, you will NOT be able to access the Administorum via the usual address (http://nerdramblingz.com/starforums). Therefore, any favorites or bookmarks you have saved will not work. Should this become the case, please use http://70.85.31.207/starforums/ to access the boards. Be advised that when you browse to the boards using this address, you will need to re-log in, as your cookies will not transfer over. Also be advised that during this period, links to other threads that were posted within threads will not work properly when clicked on, and external links to the boards posted on other websites will display an error when used.

This will only be a temporary workaround until we sort out the domain name issues. Access via the usual methods will be restored as quickly as possible, so please do not delete your old favorites or bookmarks, and please do not change any external links that point to this site. We'll let you know when things are working properly again.

(NOTE: Do not begin using the workaround site address until the normal address stops working. There is a possibility that we may be able to avoid any downtime, so there's no need to jump the gun on this one.)
