Yep, although the good thing about this RP is that many times you don't need access to this site to write a post (only for collaborations). That is, if you have your character sheet and previous posts on a word file on your computer.

re: Moving to a New Site

Mahz said [30 Dec 2014] I'm currently rewriting the core of the Guild to address its stability issues.
- The original code is now one year old, so I'm addressing performance issues
I was unable to foresee back then.
- I'm going to be open-sourcing the new server so that any web developers in
the community will be able to submit bug fixes and patches once it's ready.
(Of course, user data will be secured on the private database that nobody
has access to)
- The new stack is Node.js + Postgres (SQL) to make the codebase friendlier
for community contributions.
- I will begin testing it on a development server soon.
- Everything will pretty much function the same, and I'll of course migrate
all existing posts/users/pms/etc before I deploy the new code.
- My goal is to have a stable server with an open codebase so that even
a newbie programmer can contribute. I'm excited. :)

I personally would rather wait and see the results of Mahz's code changes that he has promised. I think how fast Mahz gets up the test server should set the bar on how patient we should be. If he gets the test server up in the next couple weeks, I say we weather the storm (we have already gone through a couple months of this, we can wait a couple weeks).

I agree. However, I am being cautious as well. I'm working on backing up the entire game, every. single. post. IC anyhow, and then all the CS's as well. That way if we do end up having to move, even though it would probably be a reboot for the sake of attracting players on the new site, we still have everything in case people want to continue with what they've been doing.

Room for another villain?EDIT: Would it be possible to shift alignments later on in the RP as my character develops?

I have all my posts and character sheets backed up on their own word files. There might be some minor differences between what I have and what has been posts (I sometimes make edits after I pasted the post into the submit box), but more or less I have all my posts. 42 pages (Arachne) + 32 pages (Iron Knight) + 98 pages (Raptor) = pages of posts. Gosh, I can't imagine the size of the document that contains all the posts and character sheets. :o

The document with the posts is 741 pages. CS doc is a WIP
