Congrats

[Zherog]

Congrats to Rawhide, Rawbear (I assume) and anybody else from the staff who worked their keisters off with the server move. It's not easy moving a forum when you plan for it. I can only imagine how bad it sucks to do it spur of the moment without planning.

Do we have any new features? Or any old ones re-enabled? :)

[Lord Herman]

Hooray! The forums are back! Thanks, guys! :smallsmile:

[EmeraldRose]

I have not yet found any new features, and I've tried a couple of old ones, which appear to still be disabled.

It would be nice to get a couple of them back though...

Also, thanks for bringing our Forums back! :smallbiggrin:

[Jibar]

This thread is now for the thanking of the tech guys.
Who, let's be honest, deserve every bit of thanks we can send their way, considering they have to take care of one of the nuttiest and most accident prone websites out there.
So:
*THANK YOU BOOGIE!*
Thanks for that idea Curly.

[Dallas-Dakota]

*join in on
THANK YOU BOOGIE!*

Haven´t seen any new features or disabled old ones...

Ps, if I remember correctly, she did a grongratulations boogie...

[TigerHunter]

Thanks a bunch, guys. I was checking every few hours the entire time, glad to see they're finally back.

[Sucrose]

Same here; to repeat the sentiments of the above, thank you all very, very much.

[Shhalahr Windrider]

All right! All right! Good show! :biggrin:

[Lord Lorac Silvanos]

All subscriptions and everything was maintained after the move, so there really was not any need for me to check if the forum was back.

Instant email notification shortly after they came back. :smallwink:

Everything also seems to be running smoothly. Very nice work. :smallcool:

[Ceika]

YAY!!!! Thanks to everyone for their hard work that got the forums back up and running!!!!

*hugs everyone involved*

[Supagoof]

Thank you oh techiest of the techies!

I am so happy with the new feature! You know, the whole feature of "less loading time". It's really great!

You don't get enough merit for all the work you do, so please take our praise along with some time to relax, get caught up with sleep, and know that all of us "junkies" will be grateful that you courageous few choose to fight the battle of keeping this forum running smooth.

Thank you for your hard work!

And now, a thank you parody...

[Miraqariftsky]

Much thanks to thee I give
Ye ladies and lords of lightning
This hall once more ye'd made on live
Rejoice, rejoice, Forummers' commune! 'Tis Spring!

[Fri]

So the Super Moderator and JLGITP aka the Justice League of Giant In The Playground once again saved the day!

In this arc, they're not only facing the regular run-of-the-mill villain like the Flamer or the Spam-Bot but they must defend GITP from a natural (or is it?) disaster! A server avalanche! The horror! The thrill!

And there's some rumor that a nefarious super villain looming in the horizon. The dreaded, menacing, deadly Hacker!

Thank you, JLGITP!

[Eita]

Much as I enjoy the fact that the forums are back, I have one complaint. You see, I am somewhat ticked that the Giant put the announcement that the servers are back as an edit. The only reason I knew that they were back at all was an off chance.

[Zar Peter]

I also want to thank all the people involved that you made the server move during my holidays so I missed only one week posting.
