Regarding the Site Upgrade path here - http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=12098.0

We were not expecting the generous donations from a few members.

We appreciate the support, and as a result, we are seriously considering leaving the site "as is", in its current format, and we might be able to afford the 25 Gig Cloud solution - which is HUGE for us ! We are well on the way to cover the first year. For those of you that have generously donated and made the suggestion to go with the Enterprise option, we are grateful. For those of you that wish to contribute, any amount will help.

At this point, we will be going to the 25 Gig Cloud Backup. Donations towards this solution and future renewals will be gladly accepted  ^^^

I'm really chuffed at the support from some members already, and their desire to maintain the old threads etc.

Thanks again to those that have already kicked off the donations. The larger back up will enable the whole forum to be maintained just as is through the upgrade of the software, so we we be able to keep everything safe and sound for the benefit of everyone.
