Hello folks,

You might have noticed in the past few months some issues with our server.
Mostly noticeably the bad uptime and the long page loading times.

As we grow and get more and more popular, we receive more incoming traffic.
On top of that, a few months ago we received a nice DDoS attack for around a week... some of you probably remember that.

We are well-prepared for 2015 and as a result we will finally move to a new server which can better handle the increased traffic and DDOS attacks.
( It is our 4th big server move now =D )
We hope that we are from now on better prepared for the future.

Beside the lower price and better performance ( double win! ) we will try to improve technically EVERYTHING

- Increased overall security of the new server
- Better preparation for data loss or worse
- Better DDoS Protection
- Overall bandwidth should be higher for everyone as well! ( faster downloads, *yay* o/ )

Administrating a server ( I have done this for over 4 years now ) is an ongoing learning process for me and everyone else in the team as well.
We are only a tiny team and therefore everything takes a bit longer than you might expect.

But besides that, the migration to the new server should go smooth and without any issues. *fingers crossed*
The Forum will go into maintenance mode soon, which means you can only read but not write forum posts or personal messages.

The UGX MapManager, UGX Chat and UGX Launcher should be unaffected by this.
The UGX Teamspeak³ Server will be down for a short time.

Everything should be resolved within the next 24h and WE / I hope there are no other issues.

But if you have an issue, please send an e-mail to [email protected] ( which hopefully works then, hehe )

A BIG THANKS to all our donators

- without you we couldn't improve our service for EVERYONE.
