Reason for New URL
« on: September 05, 2004, 03:44:42 PM »
Upon clicking on any old phillyarena.net links, you'll be redirected here.

The reason for that is simple.  If you remember back, the reason I moved phillyarena.net to an off-server location is because it was causing some downtime.  Well, I've moved it back to my servers for 2 reasons.

1) The forum software is much better.  We haven't experienced any downtime as a result of the board in months.
2) I've got another serving running that are just for my personal projects.  So even if by chance it does cause the server to go down, it won't effect my business.

So, I transferred the data over, and I'm about to change the DNS.  in 2-3 days, the phillyarena.net url will point to this location, and everything will be normal.

Since everyone's DNS changes come in at different times, Some people would be going to this board, while some people would still be posting over at that other board.  This way, by setting up a redirect, everyone will be here.

Keep the phillyarena.net/forums bookmarks if you want, everyone will end up here.
