Kick Update

Kickrunners.com update

12/17/07 Posted today about 11am.

New Server Upgrade

With the recent influx of members, it seems our bandwidth is at levels that will require a dedicated server. I've made some changes to try to keep the site up until we get moved to the dedicated server. (I had to close the Coolrunning.com free forum area and for the next day or so, I can't approve any accounts)

Please be patient - I didn't expect our site to explode like this. I'm doing everything I can to get us to a dedicated server. It will change our plans slightly, but hopefully, in the long run - it'll be a good move!

So - if you're a coolrunner and intend to stay, please register. We'll approve your account as quickly as we can (and all accounts will be approved). If you're a member, be patient and it will be worth it. If the site goes down again prior to moving to the new server, it will be down for a few days. HOPEFULLY, I can keep us up. But I know you guys, you'll support us!

Update: 12/17/07 6:30pm The site is down until probably mid week when we get moved to the new server. Please bear with us and be patient. We'll be back!

We are aware that there are numerous registrations waiting for approval. They will ALL be approved once we get to the new server. No one has been banned or will be banned. If you have registered or have registered in the past but your account is inactive, that will all be taken care of and all accounts will be activated once we are up and running again. :) We just need a few days to get the new server up and running!

If you have any questions about any of this, feel free to email me at sierra@kickrunners.com

Best wishes and Happy Holidays!!


Rich and sierra

Re: Update

I find it hilarious that there are posts on this site about how to flee this site for another site.


Oh, the "quote" button does look like a ghost blowing another ghost!

Re: Update

Kinda like Radio Free Europe...


Rich, Are you sure you can't get into trouble in assistance with escapes?


I hope the PRT is back up soon. I'm the POTD for the 19th.

Re: Update

Thanks for the update, Sierra. I feel so lost - PRT is down, and CH is, well, like being on another planet or something.


Plus, I got my Secret Snowflake present and I want to post a picture of it, and try to figure out who sent it.


So, what the heck, here it is.

And posts with updates from another superior site to which people want to flee to but which is currently not operative.

Re: Kick Update

Thanks. Who would have guessed this turn of events? Those of us who had deactivated accounts...will they simply be reactivated? I can log in but can´t post. My user name in Kick was Wanderer.
