So this is the new server?

Doesn't look like much has changed. Lame. I want my money back.

Things are a bit borked though. If I arrive at this thread through the forum pages, everything is ok. If I get here through the link on the front page, the site thinks I've logged off. And logging in at the top of the page has no effect.

EDIT: nevermind, seems to be working now.

It's mildly pissy because it's -supposed- to be game-iv.com, but the server is running as game-iv.net because some places DNS haven't updated properly.  Your's had and you're starting at game-iv.com so the first page think's you're .com, then it forwards it to .net because that's working everywhere and .net has a different login session.

tl;dr: gently-carress DNS propogation, this issue will cease to exist (though may make you login once more) when I tell the server it's really .com after it appears everyone's has updated properly.

DNS is really being stupid :\  When I was browsing the site on my lunch at school it was working at the .com  Isn't there a way to force the DNS to work?

Not really.  Each individual ISP will update in their own time.  Most if not all are probably updated now so I could just make the server think it's on .com again and it should move along just fine.  I'm oging to give it a couple more hours though to be safe.

Part of the problem is that I wasn't prepped for the move, it was a test move.  It went perfectly so I went "Lets get this over with" and hit go.

The TZF move will go much better.  It's currently on a 5 minute DNS update cycle so when I hit go there it shouldn't be down very long.

yeah, The .com site works now, but if I navigate to it, it keeps on telling me to log back in. When I do log in, it redirects me to the .net page

Alright everybody should have the propagated .com address by now so I've activated it properly.  It may ask you to log in again but otherwise should play nice and normal.
