UBB.threads Test Script Update
October 25, 2024
Due to PHP8 being more strict we've identified a bug in the Test Script which will stop the page from fully parsing when exec is not allowed on the server (for the ImageMagick binaries detection); this should be fixed in the 20241025 release from earlier today. Additionally we retooled how some of our internal checks are performed.
UBB.threads v8 Release - PHP 8.3 Support

We have been working diligently behind the scenes on bug reports, further script upgrades, and keeping assets current.

Downtime 2022.03.07
March 7, 2022
The server abruptly stopped at approximately midnight Pacific time, I spent an hour with tech support just to figure out the issue was a hardware malfunction that had to be worked on with a higher tier of support. The server came back about 10:00 am Pacific time.
For anyone curious who can understand server problems, the issue passed down from the web host is as follows:
vz03-phx VPS node is down
Resolved - The RAID controller was replaced for this machine. The server is up and running now.…

EMail Infastructure Update
February 1, 2022
With the announcement of Google Workplace (formerly Google Apps) doing away with their grandfathered beta accounts later this year we have chosen to take the opportunity to move all of our properties to the Cloudflare EMail Routing beta. This change should be seamless to all users, but all users with accounts hosted on the updated domains may need to update their domain alias forwarders.
Update: This rollout was completed in March 2022.

Family Health Issues
January 24, 2022
Our support timelines will be skewed for the next month or so, my 74 year old mother fell and is currently in nursing rehab to attempt to build strength back up in her legs; she's been having problems with falling for the last couple of months and the last few weeks has gotten out of control.
Between running errands and running my normal household things are getting kind of crazy; I ask that you bear with us for the time being and forgive any longer-than-normal contact responses.
