Thanks for sending out the bulk email - saw the new URL in there.

Well done @Duluth and @Kirwan, legends.

I think the resolution on the tipping group was that you'd finally decided to ban the lot of us.

I'd figured one or both of them have finally flipped and fucked it off. Then when the main page came up as expired it looked like it'd been hacked.

The outage probably saved the server from exploding completely at the time of Ardie's chip kick on Saturday night...

good to be back. Far out. Had to work and talk to the people living in my house. It was ... weird?

Brilliant work @Duluth and @Kirwan
you don’t know how much you miss this place until it is gone.

It was so strange having a couple of big games to watch without the chat

I've been waiting for days to find out who the man of the match was!

Thanks @Duluth and @Kirwan for sorting, cheers fellas

Have finally fixed the email set up. 30 years in IT and it was still bloody difficult.

Less should turn up in spam folders now.

And we won’t bulk email like that again, don’t want abuse people’s emails.

Thought I'd received the ban hammer for my views on Rassie. Glad that's not the case, so that I may attempt to bring balance to the force

How did bloody Lifeline's telecoms survive that overload without TSF to take care of our mental health breakdowns over that shit?

And @Bartman's got a brother?

Thanks for all your work team

Fuck that. We have emails for
a reason.

BTW the link www.silverfern.rugby is having a meltdown on my phone.

Any settings I'm missing?

We've done less work on the main site, might still be a few Gremlins on that. Try;

forum.silverfern.rugby

I've been using that on the phone ok.

Will deal with a few glitches while you gurus sort it all out.

Thanks again.

Kirwan

I think there is a cert issue left to go on that side of things.

We are 80% migrated to a new beefy server, last big hurdle is the DB migration.

I just changed some settings related to the certificate. That might fix it.. it will take a while to propagate though

The bulk email worked well but a lot of accounts (more recent ones) didn't have an email associated with it

Please pass around the updated url to any TSFers you know who don't turn up in the next few days

For example Mauss didn't have an email in his account. Same with a lot of the newer Otago/Highlanders posters

No worries, I was frantically searching for updates either way. I'm just glad it wasn't my fault for using all of these GIFs.
