Image and file uploads are temporarily unavailable

We have outgrown the current hosting plan which we use for image uploads and file attachments, and it's time for us to move on to a bigger and better server. In order to ease the transition and make sure that no files are lost during the transfer, we have temporarily disabled upload functionality until everything is moved over. The process should take less than a week and complete around February 5th. During this time you still have access to all your pictures and attachments, you just can't add new ones. If you want to post images, http://imgur.com/ is an excellent free image hosting site. After transferring a file, you can copy the text in the "BBCode (message boards & forums)" field and paste it into a post to include your image. Sorry for the inconvenience but it ensures we'll be able to provide uninterrupted hosting for the foreseeable future. Thanks everyone for your patience and understanding!

No unfortunately this is not going to help with performance, but it will take care of an important time-sensitive issue which we need to address before we can focus on site speed. So I guess you could say it's a step in the right direction.

No, nothing should change from an end-user perspective. The whole purpose for the switch is just so we don't have to disable uploads and attachments. Our new setup is actually going to cost us ~45 times(!) more than we currently pay for file hosting, so if you want additional storage space buy a supporter account ya bum.

When people get banned can I be blamed for it from now on? Like for mods who don't want to take the blame/heat they can click on a button that says that I have banned that person instead? Thanks.

I would use that feature occasionally. Great idea!
