    Default Welcome back to EoFF!

    Firstly, apologies for the delays, but it was to fix a software-related security issue we felt notable enough to warrant a server move, file clean-up and database clean-up. We tried to clean up as much as we could (all files, and chunks of the database), and I think we've done a good job overall. So, get back to posting!

    If you notice anything missing/wrong, please post about it in the Feedback Forum.

    In this thread you can feel free to thank Samuraid and Rantz for their help in getting everything sorted, and in particular Mike (o_O) who was working every day with me on sorting out the database as best as we could. It took longer than we would have liked - mostly due to timezones causing us to not be on at the same time as each other - but we got there in the end, even when it meant Mike and I staying up until 3am with manflu just to ease that timezone barrier. On that note, I'd also like to thank Fujiko and smittenkitten for putting up with us spending so much time on the site!

    Welcome back, everyone! I hope absence has made your heart grow fonder of this place!
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    This place isn't as good as I remember...

    Thanks a lot for all your hard work guys, we are all happy to have the sit back up and running!

    EDIT: Man, whatever you've done makes this place work in the office now. xD Before it would consistently crash. Whoo skiving!

    Ok. You're forgiven.

    Also, since this is American Thanksgiving (the best Thanksgiving because it means I get to eat pie and gloss over the bad things my European ancestors did) I am thankful for the fact so many people volunteer their time and talent for this place. You guys rock.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
