Somebody, que The Office 'It's Happening' gif
Our move will begin tomorrow, July 12th.
The process will occur in three stages, designed to minimize downtime.
Tomorrow morning (Pacific), we will experience approximately 1 hour of downtime. This will be the only period of total downtime we'll endure. During this time, all of the site's data will be prepared for our move.
When the site returns, we'll enter a "read only" state for about 24-36 hours. Posting will be possible, but only in a special temporary forum.
If all goes well, sometime in the evening of July 13th you'll see the new site. Once you see the new site, all you need to do is sign in. Your existing password will work. You'll have access to all your posts and private messages.
If you think of it in terms of moving to a new house, the first phase requires us to pack everything up and place it on a moving vehicle for delivery to the new house. While everything is being moved and set up in the new house, you can continue to hang out in the old house. If you were to paint the walls in the old house, the change wouldn't be carried over in the new house. On the 13th, visits to niketalk.com will be re-routed to the new address.
Due to the way that domain name severs are cached, different people may gain access to the new site at different times.
As long as you can sign in and sign out of your account, you are all set for the move.
We greatly appreciate everyone's patience and support throughout this process.
