If you are reading this then you are viewing Mika Fan Club.com 2.0 :punk:

We are on our very own exclusive Mika server.

Bear in mind that most sites share a server with 10,000+ other sites. We have one for ourselves.

It is very expensive, but we prefer to pay a lot of money than to have the site offline anymore.

There will of course be a few teething problems over the next few days, and some of you may experience chnaging between the old and the new site.

Be patient, it depends on your ISP, so there is no more we can do at our side.

Thank you all, and a warm welcome to MFC 2.0

I don't know about you guys, but for me the pages load almost instantly.

I have never seen a forum load this quickly. :thumb_yello:

A big thanks must go to Kieran the MFC programmer. His talents made the move as smooth as possible.

Also, he will be creating our very own MFC chat room for the site.:mf_rosetinted:

deano

we are looking into that. Also we are downloading the pictures from the old server, so things MAY slow down a bit over the next 30 mins.

deano
11-08-2007, 11:53 AM

At first my laptop was only showing the grey page, so I did everything that it said with no success, then I used a proxy site and got on. After that, I closed out of the web browser, came back in and it now works fine.

Well, I just now got on my PC, and it's not working still. I'm using a proxy site to get on now. The Internet is coming from the same place---shouldn't they both work if one does?

EDIT: Nevermind. I just left it on the grey page for about 5 minutes and it automatically refreshed itself and forwarded me here. :blink:

12-08-2007, 05:31 AM

A very big and heartfelt thank you to deano and kieran for all your hard work in getting a better/faster/snazzier server for us. It is greatly appreciated by all of us.


It was an interesting time in No Man's land...I even learned what a "router" is. :naughty:

Thank you also for putting up with all our annoying questions. You guys deserve a beer. :punk:

Though just one nit pick, you can't really say it's version 2.0, the site hasn't really changed physically or cosmetically (unless I haven't noticed something!)
