Maintenance

This incident first started out as a mistake, but as we're already down, we'll be getting moved to the new hardware.

This is expected to take up to 2 hours.

We'll be performing software updates on one of our game server nodes to improve stability.

We'll be migrating the forums to another faster machine with increased security.

The node that we've run the forums on is coming to an end as its hardware is outdated and a fresh start is due to improve maintainability anyway.

During this time, the forums will be inaccessible to all.

We'll be performing upgrades to our backend cluster to improve performance, stability and compatibility.

No impact is expected due to the resilience of the cluster - the maintenance should take no longer than 30 minutes.
