We will be transferring to a new server over the next week or so. (Hopefully it goes that quick)

There may be some downtime on the site, but we'll keep it to a minimum. Why? We're upgrading to a dedicated server! Cool no? I think it's cool. Somewhere out there, in the world, there's a server only for We're Alive, and that's it!

I think you'll like the speed increase once we're done.

Onwards and upwards!

Will the server change affect titles and the other what-nots? I have flashbacks to 2011 right now.

If all goes well, nothing should change :D We'll just change yours to something funny...

I had something witty, but not really. Sounds good.

Update #2

I wasn't able to do the switch over last night. With work and trying to run more, my time ran out! I may save this for Saturday or Sunday when there is a little more time :)

HA HA! No... not even. I know how much work Jon had to do. It was nuts!

http://zombiepodcast.com/wiki/images/ folder needs to be transfered over from the old server still, that's why the wiki has blank images.

I'll take care of it :) took a 5 hour drive down to St. Louis. I'll log in when I get some good service!

It was a fun transition for sure, but now we have a lot of power to back us up!

Something is off with the posts.. It put my post infront of others that posted before me.

That would be a self-correcting time error. The server clock was ahead, so all posts that are behind will now appear before until the clock catches up later today. It's not a big deal, just a one-day thing.
