Yup.. no more monkeys or apples.
Server transfer was a success (a huge success, tbh) and we’re back in business. The forums are up, and the same goes for the main website, etc.
Currently working on getting the public downloader up too. Hope to get it done by tonight, provided everything goes fine.
So, feel free to test out the new server, the speeds, etc. I am not really sure what speeds you should expect, but they’ll either be better than, or at least equal to the previous server.
Browsing on RP should also be better, because we’re hosted on 8GB RAM now (as opposed to 2GB)
The blog will also be seeing lots of new posts from different categories, etc. So there will be something for everyone.
The contest is still on schedule, ready to roll as planned.
More power to RP. And believe me when I say this, the new servers are just the start of RP v3!
I closed the forum last night. Had estimated the transfer to be complete in a couple hours. But in midst of transferring the files, a problem occurred in the new server and I had to contact the cats and monkeys responsible.
There’s been a slight delay because of all the apples they found in the server, but rest assured, things are proceeding smooth.
Chances are, when the transfer is complete to the new server, you may not see this post (someone must’ve eaten it by then).
Keep checking back for more updates
Cheers,
Hamza
