Welcome to Against the Shadow!

[Todd]

Well fellow Midnight fans, we have survived yet another move. Thanks to the diligent help of several people, including Nifelhein, Bleak Knight, Glacialas, and Dirigible we've made our big move to a faster and more reliable server.

We’ve got registration open an easy right now to accommodate the large migration of users from the old site to the new one. After about a week or so I will turn on the option that requires moderators to approve new members to the site. This should slow down or stop the spam that we suffered through at the old site.

The new forums and portal software offer some exciting new features that I hope everyone comes to enjoy. Other than a cleaner look the site loads faster and should all together make for a more enjoyable experience.

The old site will continue to be available at www.pathsoflegend.org until I can get the archived database up and running at the new server. Within the next couple of days we will be locking down that database. In fact, everything posted within the last week will be lost as the last database backup was made a week ago. So, while the site is still up at www.pathsoflegend.org make sure to copy what you need because the new archive might not have recent posts.

We’ve still got a lot of material to migrate over to the new server and lots of articles to add, but we already have a head start on that. In the coming weeks we will make sure more material is moved. If you'd like to volunteer to move material don't hesitate to ask.

So, welcome to the new Against the Shadow, Midnight Fan Site and I hope you enjoy yourselves!

Todd Antill, Webmaster of Against the Shadow

One thing to add, the username can have lower and higher cases as well as spaces in it, in the case you made a wrong name, make sure your password is valid and PM me, i will hadnle whatever changes you may need in your username. other than that we all hope you enjoy the new home of the Midnight fan community, it looks prromising, since we have had, at the very first couple of hours after launch, more traffic than we have had at the same time for the older site in all its life.

If you have any doubts, questions or suggestions, take them to Meta, there is a sticky on the PbP forum hadnling that forums specific permissions and more may come as we go.

Welcome and that we might share this place for more years of Midnight.

Nif, Administrator of Against the Shadow.
