Web server migration

To overcome some problems we are having with the webserver. Our host will be migrating our website to another server. During these period the website will be unavailable for the duration of the migration. Plus any issues that arise.

To prepare for the move I'm closing the wiki and will probably lock the forums before moving to avoid any problems potentially arising.

Updates will be provided on @tngcgaming.

Cross your fingers this goes smoothly :shock:

Server migration is in progress. Name servers will take 12-24 hours to update. Users getting a message the forums are closed and to check twitter for updates are on the old server. Otherwise they are on the new server.

If you are reading this message, welcome to the new server! :)

Please please please report any problems - no matter how small, you encounter as quickly as possible. It makes it 10x easier to fix if configuration bugs are fixed early.

Okay this is great...

When i'm at home I cant view forums anymore, at work everything seems to be working fine.
@home I still get the message that migration is in progress.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Your DNS is probably cached. Open an elevated command prompt in windows and type ipconfig /flushdns

Hmm ok type nslookup terranovagaming.com into a command prompt. Then right-click and choose Select All. Then press Enter to copy text. Paste that into a reply here.
