Cheers for the heads up, always appreciate when the admins actually tell people in advance rather than everyone just logging on to a broken site and panicking in teh Discord.

Quick question - is there any estimate on how long it'll actually take? I know migrations can go sideways so I get that its hard to give a firm answer, but even a rough window would help. I was planning to post some notes this weekend about a session I did with a local psychic development circle up here in Newcastle, been sitting on it for a few weeks already so another delay is a bit annoying if I'm honest.

No major complaints though, if the new servers mean the site runs faster it'll be worth it. The image uploads in particular have been painfully slow lately which makes posting investigation photos a proper hassle. Anyone else finding that or is it just my connection?

Good heads up from the admins yeah. @TheGamekeeper your message cut off mate, finish your question and someone will answer it properly.

Only thing I'd add - if anyone's mid-upload on evidence files or anything like that, get it done before the window starts. Lost a full EVP recording set once during an unannounced migration on a different forum years back, server didn't preserve the attachments properly on the other side. Probably wont be an issue here but worth knowing.
