Apologies to all who were looking to use their site today, WW2Talk will be offline for a spell. We are upgrading the servers in preparation for a further upgrade of the forum software (from XenForo1 to Xenforo2). The entire process is usually unnoticeable to most, but the sheer quantity of data on the site is causing the process to take a bit longer than expected.

We will online again shortly. I'll update this thread when the move is complete, but I suspect most of you...

Patron support is appreciated and genuinely helpful, and you already do more than your share for the site, so removing them makes sense.

Revenue is necessary to keep the site going, so some level of adverts will be necessary. We do try to keep our adverts tame and non-intrusive, and thankfully I've not had any complaints about our ads being overbearing, but if you do find them cumbersome, feel free to become a Patron and your heavy...
