What happened yesterday was that, after talking with the server hosting company, it was decided that a complete reinstall of the server was necessary. Unfortunately, as we also still had to back up some of the data we didn't have time to inform you about this in advance.

I think I've restored all the Star Trek and Andromeda sites on the server now, and am currently working on restoring the email addresses of the current moderators. If you find anything on the site that is not yet working, please post about it in this thread and we'll be able to correct it.

The good news is that restoring all the data went surprisingly painless - that at least is one worry less for when we are eventually able to move to a new server sometime in the future.

Thank you.

Take good care of yourself

Good... the question, though, is how much farther in the future will that be?

Could we have it back, pretty please...

And thanks for all your hard work.

Unfortunately, the server hath not enough power to initiate searches at this time. I, also, wish that it were enabled, but, alas, this simply is not to be at this time.
