Babies Day

Folks, tomorrow June 14th is Babies Day. We’re asking all you Hazzardites with some spare change to be a hero on Babies Day and make a donation, whatever you can afford, to the March of Dimes. The March of Dimes is an organization leading the fight to save babies from the problems of prematurity, birth defects, and low birthweight. They provide research, community outreach, and education in many communities to help give babies a fighting chance. They rely on donations from folks like you to accomplish their mission. They will get matching funds for the first $250,000 donated tomorrow from corporate sponsors. Their goal is to raise $1 million. So please, donate whatever you can tomorrow. Just click the March of Dimes links or banners above to donate. Thanks!
In technical news…
Well, the move didn’t happen last night. The uploads to the new server kept failing. The good news, however, is that I was able to patch the forums. They are available now and will be until the weekend when I attempt the move again.
Thanks for your patience.

Server Update

Time for Plan C! I had trouble downloading the database and files for the website yesterday, so the move will take longer than anticipated. I was, however, able to finally download the forum patch yesterday. Yay! I will attempt to download the files and database from the site again tonight. If that does not go well, I’ll postpone the move until the weekend and just patch the forums. If this patch goes like any other patch I’ve done, things might be wonky for a bit. So, if the forums aren’t acting right, please don’t post while I try to fix things. I will still be moving the site in order to address the gallery and other technical issues. Whether that will be tonight or this weekend remains to be seen. Regardless of when the move is, the forums will be down again during the move. Continue to watch this space for news of what’s going on. I’ll try to keep you all as informed as possible. Thanks for your patience.
Stay tuned!

Musical Servers

Folks, HazzardNet is moving servers again. It has come to light that folks can’t upload pictures to the gallery. After investigating, it appears that some imaging software we need on the server isn’t there. On talking to tech support, they won’t load it for me. So, it’s back to our previous web host so we can get the gallery running again for uploads of all those great DukesFest photos you took.
Please excuse our mess in the meantime.

Message Boards Down

The message boards are currently down. We received a notice that a patch was available for the software, but have been unable to download it. To prevent security holes in the site, we are leaving the forums down until they can be patched, which will hopefully be tonight or tomorrow. Your understanding is appreciated.
We also received a notice that other software this site runs on has a security hole that has caused many sites running it to be hacked. I believe the code I added to the software last night has closed the security hole, but I will be transitioning away from the use of that software on this site, as it is no longer supported by the developer. Hopefully, the transition will be seemless and there will be no downtime.
Again, sorry for any inconvenience.
