Planned Downtime: January 19

[Tsar Hoikas]

Our provider will be doing major datacenter maintenance on January 19th (west coast USA). They have announced a maximum of 24 hours of downtime but offer a "best case" scenario of 15 hours. As the window is large, you should be prepared for all Guild of Writers internet resources, including the forum, site, wiki, and the Gehn Shard, to be unavailable for that day. Please note that the Deep Island Shard runs on a different server and will not be affected.

Downtime is always frustrating, but this will come with several benefits--namely improved network connectivity


On a totally unrelated note, the forum now supports Tapatalk for a better mobile experience.

Deep Island runs on its own server, so if I remember to tell it that the board is down it should work fine.

Besides that this is great for all using and appreciating this feature I'd like to ask a question to that unrelated note ...
Can it be that our smilies got disrupted somehow on the way to implement this new option or have they always been
like that and I didn't realize it yet? ...

[Tsar Hoikas]

Another mistake I made doing some behind-the-scenes work. I've fixed that problem

Our beautiful smilies are back ... Thanks ...

My instincts tell me that I don't even have to click on those links Charura. That's a good inside joke
