Title: PSA: Ufopaedia.org is moving to new hardware
Post by: ivandogovich on March 10, 2016, 09:59:03 pm
This should greatly increase site reliability! :) The site is currently being backed up. Within the next day or two, the plan is to move it to the new server and get it back online. There maybe an outage with the move (I'd guess at most a day or two). DNS caches may need to update, so some users may not get through immediately when it comes on line again.

Also: Thanks @ Jo5hua!! :)

UFOPaedia is now set up on the new server and am emailing back to make the final switch. Unfortunately I cannot reset my password over at strategycore ;(

Yeah, their mail sending function isn't working.  I used the "contact us" option on the site to leave a message, and then Pedro (Pete?) activated my account.  You might try the same.

@ivandogovich I've seen your posts on reddit and strategycore. thanks for spreading the word.

I'm trying to track down @Jo5hua or anyone that can fix signup for ufopaedia. there's no create account link currently. Even if i use the default mediawiki URL for that I get a permissions error.

I've already PM'd him on freenode so if I hear back i'll post here.
