As per our Announcement earlier today, the Tip.it forums are undergoing a server move to a nice shiny new box which should speed things up nicely.
In order to do this, we have to have some downtime, and that is effective as of now.
This *should* only affect us for approximately 2 hours (possibly less), with possibly some minor outages following that to fine-tune things.
Please note - this also means that the above Forum News links won't work (for obvious reasons) until the new server is up and running.
Please bear with us during this short down-time, and look forward to the nice performance of the new box ;)
