The OI Forum

Dec 12 2015 09:07 PM | Bedevere in General Aricles

As you all probably know the activity on the forums has dropped considerably. We have been spending in the $300~$500 range to keep the oi-guild.com site running. While its fast and efficient it's far too costly to maintain now. Consider that we used to have 1800 messages a month in 2010 down to about 80 in the last few months.

* Cyb has created a new forum over at Enjin.com for the site to move to (http://oi-guild.enjin.com/)
* This site will eventually redirect to the Enjin site.
* We are working on a way to migrate these forums over to Enjin but it relies heavily on their ability to migrate SQL data.
* Try to use the same exact user name over on Enjin so when we migrate data it will link up properly.
* We are going to purge any threads that have not been edited in a year. This is necessary as there is 10 years of forum activity out there.
* I will try to find some option to archive the old forums. Worst case scenario I will have the raw database and can find a cheap/free/simple host somewhere.
