Hey everyone! I remember a few times during our AIM conversations with various people (Phil decides to use ICQ - grr!) you all mentioned that I use mediatemple for hosting. Well, I gave them a call and asked if they would provide me free hosting (kinda of like what they do with ultrashock and k10k). And, they accepted! Besides having to pay almost nothing, the forums and the site will be unified into one server - making upgrading and servicing easier. Hopefully, all of this and more should be setup and painstakingly moved in a few weeks to a new server =) Cheers! Kirupa C:-) ---

CONGRATS KIRUPA!!! Electrongeek just asked me the other day if I could bring up MediaTemple to you. He said they might give you a great deal. I havenā€™t seen you on AIM the past few days so I didnā€™t get to ask you. Apparently you were thinking the same anyway. That is excellent news man! ---

Mediatemple often picks sites that they believe are good places to get the word out about their services. k10k is where I found out that mediatemple offers their servers for free. In return, Iā€™ll have a small ad promoting their services (and boy will I be promoting them!) on the site. Them sponsoring the server takes a big burden off my shoulder from having to find new advertisers, etc. I just hope it all goes well and the sites (forum and this one) get back to normal after the switch is made =) Cheers!

Once it all seems to be up. I want to keep it ā€œTop Secretā€ until I get the server and all the various stuff configured. I should be getting confirmation with the server log-in info and such within the next few days; after that, we can publicize it elsewhere =) Cheers! Kirupa :ub: ---

Hi kirupa, Jubba just notified me, that Nali posted a thread about MT @ Random, so i just made the thread require a mod validation, cuz i know you donā€™t want to tell public about it. If you donā€™t mind Nali telling public, am so sorry, you can at any time validate his post through this URL: [http://www.kirupaforum.com/mod/moderate.php?action=posts&s=](http://www.kirupaforum.com/mod/moderate.php?action=posts&s=) Jubba PMed him as well. cheers; h88 ---

Hey h88, No that was a good move though šŸ™‚ I do not want the public to know about it just yet. I should be getting it all setup next week (I hope). I still havenā€™t received any information regarding the server, etc. Once portions of the site go online, then itā€™ll be time to notify the others =) Cheers! Kirupa :rambo: ---
