Hi all MMAers.

In a continuous effort to offer a positive experience while surfing, using the site, I have decided to upgrade to a new and more powerful server to host the site and forum.

In a hope to :

eliminate the server timeouts and other related problems
faster response time and page loading
faster post response
handle more simultaneous users

Beware, I am planning to do it in the next hours or so, I am expecting a downtime of 1 or 2 hours.

Thanks and report issue here (once upgraded).

I�m still having problems Max. I get the generic error page. The album I was adding was added without problems, but the cover artwork wasn�t added.

Oh, so that's why I can access my MMA-profile now? I get this message:

Server Error
