TRF Downtime..........this week

Just to let everyone know in advance that there will be some downtime on the forum over the next week.

This is due to the forum moving to a new Dedicated Server.

Scott has been amazing with his support over the last few years and the forum has gone from strength to strength.

However, the time has come to transition TRF to a new home with its own dedicated server that will have power to handle the operating requirements comfortably for the foreseeable future.

The forum is still being operated from the same location.

Technical problems were encountered during a server transfer.

We will hope to remedy this situation, but anticipate that the forum will be offline again for a day or so commencing in the next 24 hours.


Thanks to Scott and John for their help and communications during this process.

Sorry for the inconvenience but these things happen when moving software to new hardware........ I believe it will be ultimately be well worth the sacrifice in downtime.

Thank you for your understanding.

Stevo
