Hello,
Bricksinmotion.com will be down for perhaps the majority of Sunday, March 6th. We're working with the previous admin and host of this site, Schlaeps, to move the site to a new webhost. The end result should be for the better, just bear with us during the transfer.
The chat room is hosted elsewhere and should still be available at the url: http://www.tinyurl.com/bimchat or the actual irc url, irc://irc.msgplus.net/brickfilms
So what's the new webhost?
I don't know.
Now I've got to find something else to do from 3:00 to 6:00 on Sunday. I might finish the script(s) I've been working on.
Hah, I'm never on on Sunday anyway. Just don't break anything, mmmkay? 
HOW WILL WE SURVIIIIVVEEEE
This sounds good. Is Schleaps coming back?

HOW WILL WE SURVIIIIVVEEEE
My thoughts exactly. 
But we all know our wonderful leader Smeagol will get us through this with our sanity still intact.

Smeagol lost his sanity long ago.
We all did.
I honestly dont care if this site is down for a week - moving to a new host is a brilliant idea. Please take your time. Apart from one little thing...
So what's the new webhost?
I don't know.
Keep in mind Schlaeps hosts the site, pays for it and owns it so this decision is up to him and not Smeagol.
New web host? YAAAAY!!! BiM downtime? NOOOOOOO!!!!

Staying Alive...
I can't wait!
Cool, new webhost.
Is that like a complete transfer of the files on this site to a new server?
Basically.
This will still be happening, but we're not sure when, now, as we're waiting on some info from the original domain registrar, Thomas Foote, before we can get it transferred over to the new host.
edit: um nevermind again, contact has been accomplished.
WEBHOST]
Isn't our webhost, 'bricksinmotion.com' ? Or is that a domain name? I am sorry, I don't know nuttin' about internet. What is a webhost?
That's the domain name. The webhost is the treasure chest server that within is the data for this site.

Domain. And it's web. Not internet. =P A webhost is a service that keeps a server up and running 24/7 while you pay, rather than paying for your own server.
This is annoying.I'm in New Zealand. I'm thinking if this will happen real late Sunday or Early Monday?
Yeah bricksinmotion.com is back!
Glad to see no extreme changes to the site.
Indeed. My Sunday wasn't complete without it (okay, that's pathetic, I was fine), and I hadn't noticed this thread as I'd been away for two days and not checked anything on here.
So, Smeagol, is everything sorted? Or are there still some minor/major adjustments to be made?
