CanucksCorner.com Forums

Hey everyone,

Just an update on what's been happening.

The server is fully switched to the new host, unfortunately despite my best efforts to restore the database, some topics and post became corrupted and it's looking like restoring them will not be possible. For this I am really sorry...there were 28 years of posts in this forum so losing a big chunk of them is really unfortunate.

That said, at this time, with the playoffs about to begin, I am going to stop working on the server. The last thing I want to do is break the place more right as the playoffs are about to begin.

This move was made to control costs, paying 800.00 US a year was a waste of money and quite frankly a rip off.

This off-season, I will assess things again and consult all of you. I am considering wiping the boards and starting from scratch. But I won't do that without your input. In the meantime, let's enjoy playoff hockey for the first time in awhile, and hope the Canucks can delay my work here for another 16 games.

Cheers, and thanks for the support these last almost 30 years.

Brian

Thanks for the update - I'm sure the huge amount of data wasn't going to be easy to migrate.

It also seems that some use'rs IP addresses have been banned (no idea why) - if this has happened to you, email me at macntosh@gmail.com with your IP address, and I'll un-ban it.

Thanks Brian and Corn! We may lose the history but all the characters are still here!

Hey Brian, thanks again for all you do.

I sincerely hope you won't have to wipe the boards and start from scratch!

You're making the right moves though, gonna save a fortune.

I'm sure the usual folk will continue to support the site financially.

As Corn always says, why should you have to pay the costs?

As long as we enjoy the playoffs all the way to the SC finals.
