Atomic server upgrade advisory

From approx 3pm this Wednesday until midnight that night the Atomic site will be 'read-only' while we upgrade our servers.

This week we're doing a major company-wide upgrade of all Haymarket Media's site servers.

That includes Atomic. What it means is that for a few hours we are migrating all data across to the new servers and for the duration the Atomic site will be 'read only'.

You will still be able to view all areas of the site, including the forums, but you will not be able to make new posts, or send new PMs.

We apologise for the inconvenience. We are hoping that the server switch will improve performance and reliability, but we can't make any definite promises there until the actual switch is done and we can test it.

This will occur from approximately 3PM this Wednesday (the 27th) until around midnight that night. That's our estimation. The dev guys will be hard at work to ensure the switch is smooth and as quick as possible.

To reiterate - the site will be running, you can read all the reviews and the forums - you just can't post for a few hours.

Thanks for your co-operation.
