Okay everyone, we are back, and on a brand new server, apologies to all the hassle of late, sometimes things can end up beyond our control through no fault of of our own.
Our original hosting company started to have several problems a little over a year ago, involving both the server and the domains they were hosting, including their own domains. Because of these problem we had technical problems accessing the rear end of the server preventing us from upgrading our forum software and stopping the errors that were occurring.
Also, we noted that some people have been saying else where that the forum was in debt and had not been paying it's bills, pity those people did not know the facts of the situation, as it has had nothing to do with what has been happening, obviously they like to spread those negative waves.
We discovered that our previous top end domain name has been purchased by another party, it should be clarified that they never made contact with us or our hosting company prior them doing this. Luckily, this has allowed us to go in the direction that we wished to move in and go back to a domain that better describes our forum, after all, everyone knows we are LRUK forums. So we will not be attempting to buy back lrukforums at some high rate, we would rather spend our funds on bring you a much improved forum now we have full access to a new server.
Now the future, we are now on a brand new server, which as you may notice, it is a lot faster, we are also planning on various changes to the forum, those that want to help please drop me a line, and we can discuss it further.
What will be happening soon though is forum software upgrades, once we have funds, we are planning on changing from vB to xenforo, we may in the meantime upgrade to vB5, as we already have the full license for this. We also have a host of new features that we want to bring on stream.
So as the famous man says, less of the negative waves man, this is a family friendly forum, and we are looking forward to the positive future for us all.
