  1. Hi all Fishraiders

    Thank you

  2. Hi All

    ok we will need to turn the site off late tonight as the backup will take about 3 hours to backup the whole server before the move so sometime late tonight we will turn the site of so we can make this important backup before the morning, we worked out that it will take to long if we wait till the morning to ensure the backup has run ok just in case we need to run it again.

  3. Hi all fishraider's

    ok well this a notice about fishraider and this coming weekend.

    1. Starting early Saturday morning Fishraider will be turned offline while we make some backups.

    2. The site will stay offline while we make the server move to our new data center.

    3. The site will stay offline until we are happy that the move has been completed and all the upgrades to the forum have also taken place.

    4. We hope that the site will be back online late Saturday night or early Sunday morning.

    If you go onto the site late Saturday night or early Sunday morning and you still see the site offline please try and clear our cookies and cache and the site should come back online.

  4. Hi All

    the new solution is coming along very well. the speed of the new system is amazing just a little incite to the new solution it will be using all SSD drive cluster. with our tests so far with the SSD cluster bursting to 4000IOPS with still a heap in reserve, it was only loading up 1000 users at the same time so this new solution is so quick compared to now.

    Also at the same time of the move to the new system we will also be rolling out a couple of upgrades to the forum system.

    So the plan for next weekend is that the site will be offline from Saturday early morning till sometime either late Saturday night or Sunday morning.

  5. Hi all

    just a quick update we have carried out the first stage of the server upgrade and it is very impressive, there will be some more outages as we keep testing and migrating data to the new hardware.

    We will keep following up with more updates as we move forward more and then set the date for the migration to new hardware.

  6. Hi All

    welcome to the start of the New Fishraider Fourms.

    We have only scratched the surface of the new system and for the time being we have put together a very basic skin for the site while we build a great looking skin over the next week or two.

    thanks

  7. Hi all Members

    At the moment there are 2 options for mobile devices.

    Option 1 is the free IP Board software for the forums designed by Invision you can get it from the Apple App store. "still being designed and is missing a lot of features"

    Option 2 is free and also a paid version called Tapatalk as you can see from below there are more options in this version than you can poke a fish at. I am running all 3 versions on my iPad and iphone systems and always test with them all to make sure that you can use any of them when you install them.

    At this stage the Invision board solution is still some time away from being as good as the tapatalk soltuon so if you want the best solution then i am suggesting tapatalk paid version it is only $3.99 a small price for a great app.

    Tapatalk is a mobile forum app for iPhone / Android and soon to be on Blackberry and Nokia. Tapatalk supports all the usual forum functions plus full screen image viewing, image upload, caching (less reload), private messaging, all these features are accessible in just a few simple taps.

    Well i am going to let the fish out of the bag a little about the new website.

    Yes there will be a new mobile version of the website for people using other styles of mobile phone browsers.

    Yes there will be a iPhone/iPad app that will allow you to use the website, there will be a Free version and a Paid version of the apps that will allow paid apps to do more on the site.

    Yes there will be an andriod verison of the app also.

    well that will do with a small peek at what is install for members.

    check back on late saturday night or sunday for more details on where and how to get the apps.

  11. Hi All

    After a long testing process and upgrading the look of the new features we are very close to upgrading the main site to the newest version.

    There are not too many new features but the ones that will be there are very exciting and from what we can find online have never been done on a fishing website ever.

    So people with iPhones, iPads, Windows Mobile and other mobile devices get ready for a new experience and a level of use with mobile devices that have never been available before.

    more details will be online shortly with the upgrade planed for around 2 weeks time.

    Thank you
