Website migration finished
« on: December 01, 2009, 03:59:45 pm »

The website migration was finished today. There were no big problems, so it went pretty smoothly. The migration caused some small downtime on the website and forums, we're sorry for the inconvenience if you tried to access them when they were offline.

The new DNS entries are installed but it will take up to a few days to update them, therefore we installed a website proxy to make it happen a little more fluently. This proxy should allow access to the website even before the DNS updates propagated, at the cost of a little performance decrease. The website and forums may therefore load slightly slower than normal (if noticeable at all) over the next few days, but that will resolve itself automatically.

From our tests it seems everything is working again, if you however still encounter any functionality not working, errors being shown or anything that seems erroneous, please let us know. Thank you. :)

Side note: if you used to use blackintel.org for game/voice server connections you should update them to <gamename>.blackintel.org, this because the website now has a different IP-adress than the game/voice server.

If you were using blackintel.org for ventrilo then yes, but since I suspect you're using ventrilo3.blackintel.org this shouldn't apply to you. If you were indeed using ventrilo 2 then you should use ventrilo.blackintel.org.

Just see if it still works; if it doesn't, you need to change it. As mentioned the DNS server updates can take some time so if it works now and doesn't tomorrow, it might still be due to this change!
