Server Down?

When the place was down, I was scared to think that the forum was shut down for inactivity. Just because I don't go on for a few days and come back its missing, felt like VMK all over again but unknowing what happened and why.
So all i'm asking here is just a simple question:
What happened?

I'm just concerned if it was just a server problem or is the forum in any danger.

There you go :-) yeah I missed it a lot. Though he said it was a server issue I was getting a little worried.

I died on the inside for a bit too. But then I said I should just wait it out.

I was scared too. When I did a google search there were all kinds of rumours about this site shutting down. But I contacted them, and they were just doing a server upgrade or something like that....

I didn't see or look for the rumors. Not saying you did, but you found them. I didn't think there would be anything, I didn't think a lot of people even knew this site was still going haha.

Me either..hehe

Sorry for the sudden loss of site. We ran into technical issues and had to act fast to preserve all the sites' data. We've moved VMKF on to a new server. We have no intentions of shutting down VMKF any time in the near future.
