If any users of UKchatforums.com are experiencing problems chatting, please read this information.


On Tuesday, we changed the server running UKchatforums.com over to a new machine, and as such, have experienced problems. Symptoms include users not being able to log on, and occasional shutdowns. However, the problems are being fixed, but may take some time, so please bear with us.

Due to DNS routing, the problem some users have in logging on to UKchatforums.com may not be fixed for another 24 hours or so (although it's worth it to keep trying, the time will vary depending on where abouts you are in the country). Seeing as both the new and old UKchatforums.com servers are still running, some of you may still be using the old server, called 'vic20'. If you are trying to access a UKchatforums.com page with 'vic20.reserve.co.uk/discussions.' in the URL, then try changing it to 'UKchatforums.reserve.co.uk' - this may work, but like I said, we're still in the process of fixing the problems.

If you still cannot access any UKchatforums.com pages, then just sit tight - it'll be fixed soon. We apologise in this disruption to your chatting, but hey - we hate it as much as you do. Thanks for being patient - the Special Reserve Team.

It seems so formal.

Perfectly alright with me. I'm having no problems now, and there should be no reason to complain, you don't have to give us all these games and films.

I thought the problem was that you all were updating to Windows XP and all of these error messages kept appearing on the screen.....
