We will begin migrating to a VPS server on Monday, the 1st. I cannot tell you what hours will be affected and when it will be completed. I will leave this site up until I have to change the Domain Name System (DNS) which will be the last thing. After the migration I will be taking a more reduced role. I have certifications up for renewal to study for, so it will be a few months of reduced activity. Address your concerns with with @Likeicare. You should contact me if (1) you get some kind of legal notice (2) it is something server related, if logging in becomes slow or the site goes down etc. If it is something that is technical, and likeicare cannot help, he will escalate it to me. Many conventional hosts do not have the same values as us, there may be a chance we get yanked, if that happens we will get a Gypo server from Romania. I may promote someone with server experience to help out the backend (cPanel stuff). Do not contact me, your experience running a christian minecraft server is irrelevant. We will reach out to those candidates, it will be a staff decision.
Other things:
Movie night has been good so far. First night we had 3-5 people. Second night it was 5-8. I will set a public FTP folder for MODS + some members to upload their vids. The video has to be webm or MP4 with a specific codec : h.264. Old videos sitting there should be deleted. I don't have a magic number, but let's say set the cap to 10 videos for now.
Outstanding Site issues:
I will keep working on the outstanding issues. In my notes we have (1) the bottom reactions should be spaced out more like old EDF and (2) possible game plugin would be nice. Likeicare is working on the emojicons, pray he doesn't redirect the site to kittens.
I'm working on advertising and ad revenue for the site. it will be a small banner, probably on top or bottom of the site. Understanding the problems and allegations of other SysOps running away with donations and revenue to buy heroin/bitcoin/steam games, I will prepare monthly reports the first of each month on what this site has generated and it's loses. We are a non-for-profit LLC. Any extra money (if we are so lucky that happens) will be put back on the server or goodies for our loyal members.
Which gets to my last point. In commemoration of our server migration, we will be doing a raffle for a big prize worth $60 bucks and some minor ones. Only active users, including mods will be allowed to enter in. How does it work? I will make a raffle thread and
What could you win? Well seeing how most of you are anonymous, it will be;
(1) A steam game
(2) Bitcoin
(3)
