WTF? We moved to a new server


We moved to a new server. IF you should find any errors, such as avatar or attachment or anything uploading, or any posting errors and such, please post it here so I can fix it.

I'm just glad to be allowed back in.

I do seem to have adjustment problems with text not wrapping in posts I'm reading.. they're off the screen right and I have to scroll LR as well as the usual up down.

cheers

Lara,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having difficulty.

Is it happening on all threads?

Please include a few examples, if possible.

Thanks,

BST

So....after many months of this site being gone, I have found it back with missing posts from the last three years. Is Fleets still alive and working?

Let us hope so, O Eppadious Leader. I'd hate to think of it being gone forever.

It nearly was...but Fleets is back, just without four years of threads that aren't here, but as long as a spirit of Fleets is here, that's the most important thing.

Well that's good to know. I suppose we'll get the full explanation of what happened in due course but I hope the word gets around and people come back.

I hope so, as I migrated over to the "By Your Command" BG forum, which seems really good (people are nice). Would be good to have some sort of explanation as to why everything went black for several months; when this happened about a year to a year and a half ago (albeit a much shorter duration) we received evasive or "Galactica speak" responses at that time....

Nice to have it back, though...

Just so long as Iblis isn't aboard somewhere.

Any word on if the forum will be updated with the missing posts from 2015-2017? Also, any admin word as to why Fleets went into the void for so long (please, without the Galactica - speak nomenclature)?

Patience. All will be made clear soon. As for posts from the past few years - They're gone, unfortunately. What the site is operating off of is a database back-up of mine from 4 years ago.

Great, thanks for the update. Will look forward to coming explanation. Regarding my previous post; in the past, when Colonial Fleets has gone down and then later back up (2-3 weeks to a month or so), when questions were asked why, the answers were generally like this:

- black void in space
- Cylon attack
- work of Count Iblis
etc., etc.

That's what I meant by "Galactica nomenclature." Just would be nice to get the real story. There aren't a great deal of us still left here, from a forum with well over 1,000 members, when it was last active about July of last year, there were no more than 40+ semi-active to active members, so there are still a few of us that enjoy coming here looking for and sharing information about our beloved series.

Thanks again for the post. BTW, have tried looking at the Internet Archive and Wayback Machine, but they don't screen capture everything on the forum, so unfortunately it seems like the last 4 years are truly lost...
