Are you saying there's a problem, or incorrect?

p.s. somewhere out there in the internet is an identical forum with "This is the New Server" there
It's new

Just thought it was an odd thing to show up, and possibly not intended to be visible.

New name for moderators. "You're current server is Les Beeavinu, he likes Brentford and crochet".

It is intended to be visible. We're being forced to a new home, so there's test migration going on behind the scenes and some of us need to know what server we're looking at - the current one or the new one.

It's a complete ball ache as our host provider wants out of a datacentre in double quick time. So all other work on the site has had to be postponed. (Well, not that we were planning much, but you get my point). It doesn't help that we've got umpteen years of attachments on here too. I looked through some of them randomly the other evening - some very critical bits of history in there. We defintinely need a digital archieve too @wanderer paul

However, by far the most interesting piece of history was this (tenuous to BFC I know, but still...):

Good to know everything is under control. And thanks for the giggle this morning!

So when I am on my iPhone replying to a post and highlighted a certain section of the post in bold, it doesn't post/ send. However, when I take the 'bold' out then it works perfectly fine. No issues on the laptop, but is this just me and my iPhone? Been going on for the last few weeks, I am rarely on my laptop.

Can you post some screenshots please. Not sure what you are doing.

Ok strange it worked from my iPhone just now …. But normally it doesn’t …

Was there a “server unavailable “ or some such message earlier?
Yes. Was remediating a service that was past End of Life and therefore gets no securty updates. I think I messed it up. Well I think it was me. Anyway all good now.

We are planning an upgrade to the forum software so there will be another (planned) outage in the next few weeks.

Although it sounds like this one was unintentional, it's probably the best time to do it, during the international break.

You think I'm stupid eh?

Next one is scheduled for the League Cup 5th round

The Government alert goes off on our phones, the GPG is offline! We're all doomed, doomed I tell you!!!

This website no longer appears on Google when I type and search, GPG.

Used to come up right at the top but doesn't appear at all now.
 

GPG Technical Issues

Nice one, thanks. that's the way I go to come on here so will be checking daily.
It's certainly a different way of finding this site everyday. Don't you just start typing "griffinpark" into the address bar? "g" normally does it for me.

It’s a Global issue

More Cloudflare downtime but now back again

Assume this general internet issues has also stopped Bournemouth tickets going on sale?
 

GPG Technical Issues

Back working for me now (went out for a couple of hours).
- Would’ve had to seriously consider defecting somewhere else. Is B’sotted still going as a forum?
 

GPG Technical Issues

Obviously the GPG brought massive new traffic to Cloudflare which it couldn't cope with. So we're responsible for bringing down the internet today. Congratulations everyone.
Was it @russianbee that tipped it over ? 😂
