Nothing seems to be happening this time Shaun all we can do is check the url each day and see if its back or it will be the west coast for some of us ,i dont think i would ever mod again or put in all the years of uploads to another site just for the switch to get pulled . Its the way things have been done thats bad after all the years i would expect a better explanation of whats going on .

Thanks Paolo for your offering, but I think I will not moderate for a long time if SFF3 dissapears ..... Its the way things have been done thats bad after all the years i would expect a better explanation of whats going on . Totally agree in this point, but lets wait a bit to see what happens. I can´t believe that the site has gone without any kind of explanation to us after all we did for it. Hey Maup !!! I´m sure you are looking at this forum..... You can start to recruit some ppl ......... ;D ;D

Hello everyone. Just found that SFF3 was down. Hope everyone is doing ok? Very strange imo that Tipster didn't announce his holiday over Chritmas and then the sudden and without warning lack of the forum. This is not how Tipster works, whats going on?

What I find surprising, is the lack of communication between tippy, and us mods?
I guess id assume that we would at least have a email contact, or better a phone#. Just in case something like this were to occur...

Hi Everyone Jim told me to join you here. I saw the site was down yesterday and assumed it was while the new Disk drive was installed but reading your posts It seems none of you Mods were even informed Mark

but reading your posts It seems none of you Mods were even informed Mark Hi Mark, We were told that he had canceled the the current server, I think he said that this past Sat or Sun. I think he had stated in the past that the site would continue to be live for a couple of weeks after the cancel notice is placed (he had said this before with the prior server move, disk upgrade, etc.0. I think the expectation was that the site would continue to be live while the new server would be set up by him and the files copied over. I guess that didn't work out this way this time... Still no reply to my email that I sent to him on Tuesday.

My understanding is if you dont pay dues before the month date they give you a couple of days grace which they did ,i could be wrong but how do you copy over to a new disk site content from a server thats gone,thats my main concern.

I may be wrong, but my understanding is that the forum content is stored on disks in a data centre. I suppose as long as Tipster pays to keep the data stored, then once new server is ready, it will get moved to new disks. My thinking is that the new server is going to be pretty expensive, hence the delay in paying for it.
