MOVE!

Most of you know this by now, but Warp1 seems to have lost connectivity. I've heard rumors of what happened, but since I haven't actually conversed in any way with the owners, I have no actual knowledge of what happened. It does appear to be fact they lost the home where their servers were connected to the internet. That means the info is all intact, there just isn't any place that will let it access the internet.

So, we've moved. As suddenly as Ethereal Realms closed, as suddenly as we had to leave IMC, we picked up and moved again.

We had a several choices, but after only a little thought I had it narrowed down to two. With no offense to Roo (and quite a lot of thanks for her generosity) for offering us a room on her own Infinity Bound chat site, I instead opted for Sanguinem Draconis. Roo also recommended this site, as did Martin's Ethereal Realms demo site. After playing a little on both, I made my decision.

The site is on Martin's newer code, which means one thing for us: there is an export feature whereby you can back up your handles. This means that, if we have to move again and we are able to do so to another ER style site running the same code, all you have to do is import the saved settings from SD and you'll be up and running with everything you had before.

I want to thank Donna/Witch, the owner of Sanguinem Draconis, for being so welcoming, as all her staff has been. Akimoto, who is their tech advisor, has been so very helpful and quite available. It's been a lovely experience.

For those of you who haven't found us yet and find yourself here, we also have a new web page address and new forums. Note on the forums: We had phpBB message boards, and I could not disable the registration feature. This meant I was getting SPAM accounts joining every day. You know the kind. They'd want to make my breasts larger, help me get cialia/viagra/phenphen/propecia (etc.), or want me to surf to their porn site. I would delete 10 to 25 of these SPAM accounts a day. Our new forums are a different software and I have disabled the registration. There's only one forum visible for non-registered people. To join, simply go to the forums and leave the pertinent information. I will add you myself. To find the sites:
