| New server | | The new server has arrived. Thanks to Brian for paying for it and for Reece at DR for setting it up.
I've moved the database onto the new server, and needless to say it will need some tweaking. Hopefully though it should prove much faster; the new server is a beast.
If there are any bugs to report, click here to visit the discussion thread and report them.
Thanks,
