Posted: 25 Feb 2016, 14:20
Hello all,
there will be regular server updates 1st day of every 2 months from now on, starting at 18:00 GMT. First update will happen 1st of March.
What this means is that the forums will go to read only mode, there will be a backup and system update and reboot which means that the website will go down for a short period, and then the forums will be made available again. This is more of a just for your information case, so you don't need to panic if the server is down at these times.
This should take up to 15 minutes in normal case, but in case of problems it might take a bit longer to come back up.
