the dedicated server I purchased a few days back is now ready. I am moving FK to that, making a new cloud flare account, and transferring Fk's domain to a more secure registrar. I am also re uploading all files and re downloading them to be sure no files where changed by the hackers. I am just letting you know that there will be downtime guaranteed. But I don't want anyone to worry about Fk being hacked again. So I figured I would fill you in before the downtime occurs. After all this we shouldn't have anymore errors, or downtime. Hopefully anyways...

Oh and when Fk is back hopefully we will have the new theme as well. And you will all be forced to change your passwords when its back up as well for your own security. I will start everything later tonight when when most members are sleeping so try and avoid anyone from having FK withdraws.

No it shouldn't take more than a couple hours. changing all the name servers and all that jazz is the only real downtime that will occur.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking would take up most of the time, anyways, good luck man
 
Sounds great Philly. Looking forward to more security, and a new theme
 
Yay! This sounds absolutely amazing, Philly. I can't wait for the new theme, and hopefully the new Cloudflare account will stop the constant browser checks.
 
Thanks for the update. I'm one of the few actually not looking forward to the new theme since it will mess up the Elite group and the animation. But I remember you saying I can still use the current theme. So it's all good here

I was told it was, however they might have got the payment back when I was locked out of the account i am awaiting a response.
 
I might just get everything setup tonight than change the nameservers and all that jazz tomorrow. Ill figure it out.
 
Hell yeah! I can't wait for the New Theme. Glad you got stuff sorted out Philly
 
hopefully ull start tonight, so u fix it while im in school .

EDIT- I FUCKING USE FK EVEN WHEN IM TAKING A POOP LET GO IN SCHOOL,
 
At least the security will be better so nothing can happen to the index again.
 
Does this mean that you're gonna upload the full 2GB of files, plugins, CMS & Database? I bet it will take more than 6 hours.

If you've any plans, let me know.
