Help test new server

I'm going to move the board to a new server in order to speed things up. However, I want to test it first.

If people could go to https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion and see if they can break anything I'd appreciate it. This has a copy of the board from a few days ago, running on the new server.

KNOWN PROBLEMS:

The test wiki uses this direct link: http://wiki.alternatehistory.com/doku.php

If you use the link in the Discussion section it always points to the current wiki. Please do not screw around with the current wiki.

I have two inbox messages that weren't on there when I clicked this thread and followed your instructions...:confused: I logged into .org and it said I had 2 inbox messages and I thought they were something from the server, but it was just the Sandbox Republic stuff, and it was all from the past, but it all had the same date

Ian, I'm scared...:(

Didnt he say its a copy of the board from a few days ago? :confused:
 
So by "break something" we can spam the hell out of this thing?

Can I get a show of hands who wants to try and DDoS this thing?

It's a miracle from the IAN the forum god! What happens if I delete the messages on this server, will the other ones go away? Will some stay, and some not stay depending on which ones I check to delete?

IAN, is Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A B A the cheat code to be a moderator?:p

But did anyone else get the odd "new inbox" thing but from a few days ago?:confused:

EDIT:
I am going to try to "tunnel" my way through the wiki, logging into it from .org's links to see if it works.

If I'm not back in two seconds it's because I was eaten alive by the Wikipterodactyl.

I'm back, and the test edit was a success! I don't know if you expected any problems in using the .org to access the wiki but I got that one out of the way before anyone could ask!;)

The new board is great ive never seen this site be this fast when is everything going to be transfered to the new server?
 
So, I imagine that the new adress of AH.Com will actually be AH.Org in the future? If so, how long till this happens?

So is this the new permanent address for AH? If it is, we'll have to reset our subscriptions and bookmarks.
