Exclamation Forum Maintenance: Site Down Nov 27-30

Hello,

This site will be unavailable from November 27th through November 30th, as we move the site and upgrade to the latest version of our forum software. This is a major update to the site, which is why the extended outage is required.

For full details on the upgrade, see this thread:
http://www.otmfaq.com/forums/f2/sequ...new-digs-1635/

Thank you for visiting the site and I welcome any comments. Our goal is to improve the site and it's usability.

Thanks!
--Chris

Re: Forum Maintenance: Site Down Nov 27-30

All,

During the final testing of the site upgrade, we discovered a serious security issue that gave access to user records.

As a result, we have restored the original site version and are working with the vendor in order to resolve. They expect to have a solution within a couple of days and we plan to perform the upgrade again next weekend. The site outage for the upgrade will be Dec 5 - Dec 7.

Thank you for your patience.

--Chris

All,

The upgrade was completed successfully. If you experience any issues with the site, please let me know.

Also - there will be some other minor outages in December, as we make the following additional upgrades:
  • Move the site to hardware on Amazon's Cloud environment
  • Upgrade the site's look/feel to make it more user friendly and expose the new features of vBulletin 3.7.x

Thanks!
--Chris
