    Chopin Expedited Copy

    Because we have to re-copy 2,000 or so accounts from Chopin it's going to most likely be a few days. I've decided to give the people that actually read the news like they're supposed to the opportunity to be moved faster. If you're on the old Chopin waiting to be copied and you actually read...

    Community Support Forums Closed

    Since so many people are unable to read I have temporarily closed the community support forums until the server migrations and maintenance are done. I will not allow the valuable time of our staff and community volunteers to be wasted because people can not take 5 seconds out of their day to...

    Database Error?

    Make sure you are using "localhost" for the database server. This is the global setting for all of our servers, even ones that use a remote mysql server. Changing your host to "localhost" should resolve any connection issues.

    VPS Forum Re-Opened

    Banning Mass Mail Scripts

    Effective tomorrow I am banning mass mailing scripts such as "CCmail"... after looking at who actually has it on their accounts I have found no legitimate use for it or some other popular mass mailing\mail bomb scripts. We are not a mailing service, we are a web host. If you have forums, etc...

    Language Rule

    For some reason it seems a lot of people completely skip over this rule even though it has it's own page during sign-up AND it's in the ToS. To reiterate we only allow sites that are in English, French, or Spanish. In the past we've let some people get by using Google translate or another...

    There seems to be an issue with people constantly reiterating information that has already been said in help threads. If someone has already answered DO NOT respond with the same answer again, even if worded differently. I'm going to start giving infractions out about this and if you have...
