The forums and site will soon be moving to a new server.
We arent sure the exact time when we will move everything over, but it will be during the majority of user's night. Please be aware that the forums may be 'closed' in the few hours when we do the move.
Thanks

Gamespy are moving us. We will move when everything on the new server has been fully set up and is completely functional.

What changes, if any, will this change of server have? I mean besides the URL; do we get any benefits from moving?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say "don't worry about it." Now, I can't speak for the E4, but I doubt they want to be pestered about every detail of the move.
1) We're being moved to a new server
2) The URL will change, and the old URL will redirect to the new one
Really, that's all the end-users of the forum (that is, everyone but the admins) need to know.

Nope. Gamespy is just moving everything. They don't delete anything. Everything will still be intact and operational. (I hope...)
I used "everything" too much. :roll:

All posts and members will remain.
That's why we need to close the boards when we move everything accross - otherwise some posts will just disappear if they are posted after I've backed everything up.

Ah, I see. Like if you're playing a Pokemon game and you kill the power when it says "SAVING-DONT TURN OFF THE POWER" . Well, my worst fears are confirmed-false.

Does this include the psydex and everything??
Also, for the people that have the site in their favorites, (or bookmark, etc.) when they try to get to the site; will it say to go to the new site, or will it automatically go to the new site??
Sorry for 'pestering' but, I'sure that I'm not the only person that would like to know.

We would appreciate it if urgent, life-threatening questions are posted here only. There is no reason to ask why, how, when, where, who or what. It is our business only.

Yes, go see a doctor. You might be suffering from cancer, causing the growth of a tumour on your thigh. This is especially urgent if you have lumps on other parts of your body, suggesting malignant tumours. You need to seek medical advice in order to stop this uncontrolled mitosis and cell divisions which are resulting in the lumps.
But seriously, everyone should really follow what TK said in his previous post. The server move seriously doesn't concern the members AT ALL. Just trust the admins and GameSpy to do their job. Don't annoy the admins too much

The forums will be moving tonight if everything goes according to plan.
If you happen to be on at that time, the boards will be closed and you won't be able to post sorry.
Any avatars uploaded from now until the move tonight, won't be on the new server - you will need to re-upload them. All other avatars will work as per usual.
This url:http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~psypoke/forums
will still work and will simply redirect people to the new server.
THERE SHOULD BE NO CHANGES TO ANYTHING ON THE FORUMS EXCEPT THAT THERE WILL BE A REDIRECT WHEN YOU USE THIS LINK.
Thanks

EDIT: Thank you.

UPDATE:
Sorry guys, the move hasn't happened yet...a few technical hiccups.
I assure you there is actually going to be a server move, and it's going to be great!
