Cheers!

Ok cool, cause it would definitely suck to have everyone re-register and start from scratch.

Same here.

For one it would just suck.

And for two, we wouldn’t be able to get mad at people who post the same question that has been asked before, because they didn’t know it was asked before…lol 😛

But seriously, it would be horrible for kirupaforum for have to start from ground 0 for a third time.

Third time? no, kirupa imported his old board data, only posts, not user handles etc…(So now they look as guests)

Example: [http://www.kirupaforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4025](http://www.kirupaforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4025)

Oh ok. Makes sense.

But it would still suck to have to re-register. What if another member stole your name :o

I know a few people have said my member name was cool and they wish they had thought of it first. I would have to rush right quick to register!!!..lol.

\<~~~ Paranoid

Don’t worry lost, I can ensure that the name lostinbeta only goes to you. Also, I can manually adjust the post counts for each individual, so the top 20 or so posters can retain their post counts after a move.

Cheers!  
Kirupa :sure:

Yay! Check out: [http://64.207.131.75/index.html](http://64.207.131.75/index.html) I’ll move the site once the domain gets switched to the new host. The forums will take a little bit longer, because I am a complete newbie when it comes to configuring the forums (just ask h88 lol)

Yet when I type in [http://www.kirupa.com](http://www.kirupa.com), I am still going to the old site. Guess it’ll be just a little while longer before the changes take effect =)

I’ve started to move the files now. There are some advantages to having the flu and staying at home from school a whole week - this gives me a chance to sit one spot and do boring uploading stuff :love:

Cheers!

Hey Kirupa… [www.kirupa.com](http://www.kirupa.com) now gives you the WE’LL BE BACK page 🙂

And eyez: Nope, thats not it… I just don’t have much of a life 😉 Ok, so thats not technically true, but I don’t sleep either, so that helps.

Hey Kirupa, have you ever though about using [www.kirupaforum.com](http://www.kirupaforum.com) as a cheap redirect URL to [forums.kirupa.com](http://forums.kirupa.com) ? [http://www.registerfly.com/](http://www.registerfly.com/) is pretty cheap, and you can probably transfer your domain there.

I think it would be easier for people who don’t come here that often and don’t know about the switch.

Hey lost,  
Actually, I was planning on changing the DNS server thingy to point to [forum.kirupa.com](http://forum.kirupa.com) instead. Mediatemple has some little feature that enables that for subdomains, I might use that…if not, I’ll give your idea shot =)

I am still able to load [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com) (grrr!), but in a few hours it should get updated near my area as well!

Cheers!

Weeee!!!

I dont really think so, but maybe you have to clear your temp files and cache. I do that every night and [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com) was the new page since I first when on this morning.
