super sorry this took so much longer than expected. ran into a huge number of technical and logistical problems due to how massive our database was and how much we had on the server.

emails should work right now, ability to change avatars should be coming online within the next day or two, still sorting out some server configuration stuff

if you have any technical problems since we moved, feel free to post them here

if someone still can't access the site, inform them to clear their browser cache and flush their dns and it should start to work

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I have been lost without this forum. Much appreciation for your efforts to improve and keep the site up and running!!!!!!

Being without this forum for so long is terrible ^^'
Thanks so far!

Happy to be back. I woulda perferred you took your time getting them back online anyway.

Are you fucking serious? Almost two weeks of the forum being.. down, it took so long, and you didn't even change vBulletin to the latest version?

Why not? Now that'd been a real change..

No need to be such an ass, besides, if you're that concerned about getting the latest version of vBulletin here, go ahead and pay for it; I'm sure many users would thank you [sarcasm, in case someone can't tell, most users won't give a damn, examples in this thread… Too].

Congrats on the a new server. Hope it was worth all the hard work. :)

I'm not being an ass, I'm saying my opinion, it's fucking stupid two weeks for just moving servers and NOTHING changes other than getting e-mails and avatars back. That does't take two weeks. But that's none of my business. I won't change shit, I'm just giving my opinion, and there's nothing wrong with it.

And I don't know why you're offended, you know deep down you want the Shrine dead, because it's a terrible chore to you, so you probably were happy you had a nice holidays without having to mod retards...

Good to be back!

Me? Offended? Nah, sorry it came out that way; given the health-conditions of the "previous" server (which most of us are somewhat privy to, for obvious reasons), not to mention the amount of data that has indeed been moved, I wouldn't be so quick to spout stuff like are you fucking serious?

Given the state things were in, an extended amount of downtime was a likely possibility.

As for me being on holidays because of this downtime, meh, haven't made my being fed up with the current state of things around here a secret on the few social networks I use, either.
Also, I'm going to enjoy a vacation anyway, I've got better stuff to do than care about this download-dump, for the time being. I'll come back when I'll come back.

Good for you, mate. Got nothing more to say.

Well, the email notification is working. And it's damn annoying!

Glad the shrine is back up! Been lost without it! I appreciate all the hard work you guys have done trying to keep things running.

Feels nice to be back. Good to be here with ya, folks.

Hi Sarah

Happy to be back with everyone else. Been meaning to do some things, so I'll prepare for that.

Glad to be back!

Great to see you here, man! New avatar is looking good!

Nice to see that the forums are back up again~ Thank you : D

Thanks all, nice to be back! This is the site that got me into collecting VGM years ago, and I'm glad it's still going strong.

Glad to be back!

Good for you, mate. Got nothing more to say.

Honest? You've finally drank that big, tall glass of shut-up we've been asking to consume? Awesome. Some peace on the Shrine.

And mate, it's not just what you say but how you say it. And what you said could have been said far more diplomatically. And when I'm chastising you for a lack of diplomacy, you know you went too far.

But please, continue with the shutting up. (It won't last.)

Home again Home again jiggity jig :)

Got to my desktop and my bookmark wasn't working.

http://forums.ffshrine.org is a dead link for me.

http://forums.ffshrine.org/index.php is fine.

If this is a real error and not just some problem with my browser refusing to update an IP address (I have no clue how this stuff works), might want to look into that.

Praise The Sun.

Also:
While searching for ffshrine I found a very long thread (like 50 pages), on another forum, from 7 years ago that claimed they were going to KILL FFSHRINE.


This fucker just won't die.


FFShrine: It's Like The Alien(s) of the Internet.
:D

So good to have you back. Missed all my Forum buddies this past week or so (Except for that prick, PonyoBelleNote - disgracefully rude)
Continue the great work guys. It's much appreciated. Thank you.

YAY! It's awesome to be Back to the Business! =)

Just to note that while the site http://forums.ffshrine.org should redirect to the index page it instead redirects to http://forums.ffshrine.org/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi

Not for me; clear the Cache, that should working

I also get the index. Try to flush your DNS.

Flushing the cache worked.

Now we are on a new server, errors fixed and so on... but just to know, the >Give this post a like< -function will never return, right?
