ReconGamer Status Update

Alright, lots to update everybody on! I just got off the phone with RG tech support, and lots of things are being taken care of.
First some history. About four weeks ago ReconGamer updated their web servers to PHP v4.3.2RC1. This is the latest "release candidate" for PHP. That was about the time we started having problems with forum speed. About a week and a half ago they reverted to PHP v4.3.1, and at the same approximate time, everybody started saying the forums were faster again. Just a couple days ago RG re-installed the RC1, and our forums started acting sluggish again.
So: we have (weakly) verified that it is the latest release candidate of PHP that is causing the forum performance issues. Our website is being transfered to a new web server in an attempt to fix this problem. The change should be transparent to all end-users. (If you really want to keep tabs on it, our domain's IP will change from ending in .105 to .103) Be warned that there still might be some momentary disruption in service.
We have also been able to determine that the broken attachments is also caused by this RC. There is nothing we can do about this until either the PHP team fixes the bugs causing it, or the YaBBSE team finds a way around them. Sorry all.
Next, RG is setting up a new sub-domain called "proxy.csreloaded.com". Very few of you will care about this, since it won't make an immediate difference in anything. Nevertheless, we hope to have a very small HLTV proxy set up in the week or so. There is a possibility this proxy will be admin-only due to the limited available bandwidth on the host machine, so don't get your hopes up yet.
Also, I spoke with the RG tech about the JAPZ server, and he expressed a view very much like the one I stated in the forums: RG doesn't condone cheaters and hackers, but they have the same rights as all of our users. Since they are advertising it in their server's name ([JAPZ] Hacking Server) nobody can say they weren't warned when they connect to it, and better they do it in their own server than everybody else's. Plus, to the best of his knowledge, there hasn't been any modification to the actual game server other than disabling VAC, and there isn't anything to be done about that.
UPDATE: It seems the shift to the new web server went off without a hitch... other than HLStats, the Random Screenshots script, and our Downloads page that is. Those should be repaired by Friday afternoon.
