pcengine-fx.com web host/boards/email status: 11.3.04

[PCEngineFX]

Hi all,

SITE STATUS: Well, here is what happened...my web host went down, and I heard talk about them going out of business recently, so to save myself the pain of doing it later, I have decided to ditch my current host and just go with someone reliable.  The new plan I have is 2x better than my old host, and it's even cheaper with better service and faster servers! (YAY!)

EMAIL: Email is still down, so don't bother sending anything to pcefx@pcengine-fx.com for a few more days.

FORUM: Good news!  I was able to backup the old forum database (LUCKY!), and reload the backup to the new host forum...so NOTHING has been lost (so happy about that).  I will be doing monthly backups of the forum just in case (if it is one thing I hate is loosing forum messages...grr)

great to see the forums back at the very least, glad you found improved hosting as well!

Yea I missed the forum.  But what was with that temporary Pcenginefx forum?  It requred you to re-register and the threads were old?

[PCEngineFX]

The forum was not yet complete monads.  I first thought that I could only recover the board with an old backup, but I was lucky and managed to backup the current board from the old web host and do it that way.

Man that totally blows !


Well at least you didn't lose any data, and work progress, and got a better server for less cash.


Heres to PCEFX.COM!   *cheers*
