Site News KH-Vids on new server, as of 1/23/09

Dear members,

Kh-vids.net went down for server maintenance and transfer as of roughly 1 a.m. est last night. What was expected to happen was for the forum to be shut down and the DNS to be changed after all the files, attachments etc. were moved. However our support guy seemed to have left the job unfinished, because our DNS was in fact never changed. We are working on contacting him and getting the problem solved and get our DNS changed.

Please note that if the site was transfered successfully when we talk to him, any post made from now until roughly 10 hours from now (4 a.m. est) will be erased when the DNS is changed. For now the site will be reopened for browsing purposes and tests.

No other major updates will take place until we have recieved word about our server status and if the DNS was changed. All video downloads in our archive should still be operating normally.We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks for your patience,

-KH-Vids staff

-Edit- The transfer is over and complete, as a bonus we managed to restore all posts as well.

Thanks again for the wait. If you notice any broken links on the site, please let us know.

 

So... Anything I post today will be deleted if things go well?​

 

Yes .

 

So we can spam the boards?

 

/there really isn't any point in posting anything worthwhile until this is sorted?

 

Yes, nothing important anyhow. We've decided to keep the site open in the mean time so people can still download cutscenes and have something to do.

 

I would like to point out that all rules still apply during this time of transition <3

 

It's like KHV is cleaning out the white house and bringing in the new presidency.

i'll behave.

 

FFFFFFFFFFFFF-

Well, there goes my entertainment for the evening.

 

I'm screwed. *sighs*

 

Darn D:

Will threads be deleted as well?

 

=l It doesn't look like any posts were deleted. Did the server change work?

 

I was wondering about this as well...

I've been paranoid to post anywhere because I'm afraid of it getting deleted XD​

 

The site has been successfully transfered, and we were able to restore all posts so nothing should be lost.

If you see any broken site links, please let us know!

 

Stupid question here but...

Will this site still be blocked at meh school for now?​

 

Lol I couldn't answer that. My guess would be if it was already blocked on your school's network before, it would still be now. =(

 

Glad that you guys were able to recover the posts.

 

I just want to know why they did this, because it only happened at my night time, whci h is annoying, coz that's the only time I could post. I'm happy that everythig is back to normal though.​

 

I can almost guarantee it will. Most blocks are done by key words in the page. If your school's content blocker uses the server I.P. (which is very unlikely) that is the only chance of it being temporarily unblocked. Sorry.


Anyway I'm glad you got a new server though I'm very bad about checking the board so I half freaked when my browser couldn't find KHV. Hope this help with DBEs and other tech stuff.

 

Just wanted to make a comment that I'm working on solving the current sluggishness of the forums (entire server actually). It's a long and painful process.. and might take a couple more days. One thing I've done temporarily is disabled searching of the boards.. so if you get an error message while attempting to search for something, it's because that was done deliberately.
