Fw: Forum outage tonight!

[JJChicken]

fyi

Sorry for the short notice, but I have been informed that the forums will be down for necessary maintenance from 10pm EDT tonight, Friday, until approximately 6am EDT this Saturday morning.

Seize this opportunity to finally leave your basement lair!

What will be happening is a database optimization that should drastically improve forum performance. Our long cherished dream of same day page refreshes may finally be achieved! ;-))

This needs to be done in advance of our new server hardware, which is coming soon. Think bionic hamster drive. I will say no more.
