I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

downtime. possibly 3 days?

site problems and/or feedback let us know.

downtime. possibly 3 days?

Post by .saint » January 06, 2009

the server names are getting switched tonight and may take up to 72 hours before they come active.

but once we are back online www.thejdm.com should direct you straight to the v3 portal. all systems go from here on out then.

just wanted to let you guys know ahead of time. if you don't read this before the site goes active you will probably bitch about it being offline haha. so when we get back online this should be a first read for ya.

cheers.

well i was just informed that the service im running my domain name through is not that great and i dont have enough DNS management features to start pointing domains here and there so im going to be name register hosting shopping today when i get home from work. joy. (hopefully save money at the same time)

so the URL transfer wont be happening till i get all 3 of my domain names converted to a new host as well.

the new server comes with 1 free domain name so i will be transferring my domain name to webhostingpad and im still shopping for the other 2. but hopefully by next weekend (transfer takes 7-10 days) thejdm.com will be pointed to v3.

im not sure what the downtime is going to be like (if any) it could just be a process one day we wake up and thejdm.com points to the new server i dont know. im waiting on the confirmation email and we will go from there. they said i can email them from time to time to check on the status. so if we are online i will keep you guys updated every time i get updated.

well conversion is complete!

now i need to make it so www.thejdm.com and thejdm.com BOTH point to the forums. as of right now www.thejdm.com is the only one working at the moment. BUT i should have the redirect figured out by weeks end.

FINALLY! V3 IS OFFICIAL!
