Maintenance notice for Saturday, July 3

Dear members,

As usual, Forumotion ensure you provide all that is best in terms of free forums. In this context, and to ensure maximum performance for your forums, we will proceed to a
maintenance on our network Saturday, July 3, 2010 from 07:00 AM to 11:00 AM (GMT +2).

During this maintenance, our team will do their best to minimize the impact on your forums. However, slowdowns, impossibility to access the forums, or white pages can occur.

You have no reason to worry, your forums are safe, no data loss is to be feared. This operation and its adverse effects are expected and will be under the control and close monitoring of our team. By the end of maintenance, your forum will be perfectly accessible and more stable than before.

You can now tell your members of this maintenance so they are not surprised to see slowdowns on your forum.

I recall that Forumotion offers two very effective ways to prevent your members:

1. The announcement at the top of every page of the forum: It displays announcement, scrolling or not, in the form of text or images on all pages of the forum.
2. The Newsletter: Send a mass email to all members of your forum who agreed to receive newsletters from the admin.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Best,
Forumotion Team

It's only 4 hours right? I think it will be alright..

GREAT! Improvements are to be made indeed!

Thank you for the info.

"Prevent your members"
From doing what, may I ask? Being surprised?
Thanks anyway, sending newsletter.

Hope we can get at least more advertising ways like sharing advertisements automatically between forumotion users...

Thanks for infos

As long as that ugly maintenance screen doesn't show up like last time, ( Scares everyone that visits my forum that doesn't know about Forumotion )

What are you talking about? Why should we share advertisements on each others forums?

Their link directory is enough. Start building back links on your own.

If you want to do this, contact the admin of the forum and ask them to affiliate with your forum,

Yay, great work you guys! Can't wait to check the new features out

Thank you, team, for that information.

Thanks for the heads up, Typlo.

Well, at least more secured system...

I noticed that a lot of forums are being hacked not long ago...

Anyway, im sure Typlo, u can get this better

Are any features being added?

New features will be added later down the road. These are just to adjust the system.

It wasn't really bad. It's over now,

Worked on a new FM board today and even with living in the ACP all day, had no issues at all.

Is it started? Or is it done with?

Pretty sure it's over.
