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. http://community.active.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif 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: Kick Update
I think it is very professional and kind for you and Rich to keep us informed about these issues while the site is down and awaiting improvements. Clearly, everyone wants to know what's happening, and as you can see from the various threads there is much misunderstanding. This kind of forthright explanation is exactly what we all need. Many thanks. Spareribs

Re: Kick Update

Here's how bad things have gotten: I went to KR this morning, saw the single word "Welcome" and was excited.

I hope your return is imminent.
