I wanted to say thank you again to this kick-ass community for making TWO new servers a reality. I will say that there are undoubtedly going to be some tweaks required, and I'll use this thread to post anything odd that you notice since being on the new servers. We'll also be tuning the engine the site runs on as well as the connectivity to our database to ensure a lickity-split experience. This will take a few weeks, so please be patient.

Also note that while *most* of the files have been transferred, the last full transfer finished about 30 hours ago, so any new files you've added since then (not many, I'm sure) will not appear for another 24 hours or so while I do a differential update.

That said, welcome to your new home!

the chat.nintendoage page isn't working. I think its the older page, it says the password is bunnykiller, which was from a while ago.

I dunno if this stemmed directly from transferring servers, but late last night, I couldn't seem to send a PM that had any text in it :/ ...

Edit:  Also, I'm having trouble editing my posts...I click "edit", and it brings up the standard post entry window, but without anything inside (as it normally would).  I just did it twice, and the third time I clicked it, and it came up normally.  I use Firefox 4, btw...

Edit the 2nd:  Other than those two bits, everything seems to look good

What browser Matt?  I've tested on Firefox running on Windows Vista and I can't reproduce the issue.

Edit: Also tested on Internet Explorer Version 8 without issue.

Hm...whatever it was that was causing me to send empty PMs is now fixed o_O . I dunno what it was, either
. I'm not running AdBlock, I can say that with certainty...  Still having the issue with editing posts, though...

And I'm running Firefox 4 on Vista x64...

Wow we are running much quicker now. I post in a private topic with over 6000 post and it used to take a bit to load the last page. Not anymore, it loads almost instantly. Thanks to everyone who helped!

Response is even faster now, great job! The only part I have problems with is editing posts. Once edited, attached files dont' display. Also, the upload file page is down but I bet you've already known that. Can't wait until it gets ironed out. Besides that, everything in Chrome 10 with AdBlock Plus! Woo!
