We're upgrading servers, so there'll be some downtime today, starting soon.

So far so good - expect a few hours downtime to start at around 2230UTC (about an hour).

Server is back up! Sorry for the extended downtime - it's often par for the course with these things. If you find any new problems, we'd like to hear - please make a note in this thread, and we'll see what can be done.

Thanks for your support! :lol:

Hi guys. Thanks for the warning and the info
I am having to log in each time I reply to a post and most do not go through
But then again...I am on dial up
Will this improve with time?

When I click on view unread post, it takes me to the front page, instead of the first unread post in the journal... happened in each one I have gone to so far..

Sorry! Does it take you to the RIU front page, or the front page for a particular forum?

It will definitely improve. It must be pretty frustrating with a dialup and losing posts..

As RIU's never been moved before, there's the odd surprise of how it's lodged itself into the old server and things required just aren't there when we move - a bit like moving house and finding out the new person hasn't put in any lightbulbs. Or windows. Or doors.

ROFLMAO.... so many stressed out stoners today..... oh well... at least it's a good sign that RIU is near and dear to its members hearts. It's all good....glad to see the site back up... I'm sure all the little kinks will be worked out shortly.

Congrats on the new server :)

The thing that I laughed the most about is how RIU roped me into playing Gold Miner for 2 hours last night. Damn that stupid game hooked me and reeled me in. I only got to level 5 or 6... can't remember which but it was the one with the skulls in the mine.
