I plan to move LFE this week since HFE Server Move is finished now (and I didnt have any problems and dont think there're a lot of bugs ).
The problem: I closed the HFE FOrum for a few days since I didnt want to lose data. But what about LFE Forum.
There're three ways:
1. I let the forum open untill the webhost transfer the domain and I create backups as often as possible so I don't lose a lot of data
2. I close the forum tomorrow or so and open it again when the server move is done
3. I close this forum and you can use a copy of the forum under another domain (will be some kind of subdomain of HFE) untill the move is done. There won't be any loss of data and the forum is opened all the time, but there might be some problems with the usage like the head image will link to another (the original) domain instead of the temporry hfe domain and stuff...

2nd option.. because:
1. it is less work for you (making backups everytime is time consuming)
2. some guys should learn how to live without lfe because one or two days without lfe shouldn't be too rough. I hope everyone still has a real life

should totally allow people to be all trolley on their birthday

It depends how long will take ''the server move''...
If it will be quickly, you can close it to lose no data(3 or 4 weeks I can wait). But if it will take ages, then don't close the forum
EDIT: Ok, I don't wanna make you a lot of work here cus it's stupid reason. Have a rest MH, I will vote for 2.

Like Phil stated: option 1 is a bad idea (for you, at least)
Option 2 is a good solution if it won't take too long. I don't mind a wait, but I suppose there are people who are quite addicted...
All in all, a compromise would be the best solution, so I chose option 3.
Just trust in your judgement. Whichever you chose is fine by me.
Been trying to organize my work.

Ahh, Your a ninja Alex
I've voted 2, I don't mind it taking a while either, a general break may
give me a larger push in my miscellaneous projects...
Trust you're all well.

looks like it's option 2, less work for me then, well, lets see for a few more votes.
The server move will take 2-5 days.
The hfe server move started tuesday (put the letter into box), wednesday the transfer started, friday domain was transfered and cause of the weekend DNS was transfered today. If I start today it might be done untill the end of the week...

Option 2
Obviously we don't wanna overwork MH...
It seems like the less dangerous option to me!
Hiding users' signatures and avatars was the best decision ever.
hey blow :P ~ Bamboori
can I call ya koalafly? ~ Phil
Pogofly - Simoneon
k0a1af1y, looks much more stylish ~ Blue Phoenix
So hey, blow, say something! - Simoneon
Quack? ~ blow_fly98
Hi blow ~Ramond
So... is it decided that we call him "blow"? ~ Blue Phoenix
No. ~ blow_fly98
But blow, all the members now will follow us because of this convo. You're ruined!!! - Simoneon
Meh. But I'll leave this convo here anyway. ~ blow_fly98
meh koala is much more awesome so I will stick to that ~ Phil
Wait, what? Koalas can edit profiles? - Simoneon
lol, seems that i started a long discussion :P ~ Bamboori
You did, indeed. I wonder who will exceed the sig-limit... ~ Blue Phoenix
Please don't trash this. It's good eye-candy. ~ blow_fly98
koala has spoken and so shall it be =) ~ Phil
there're some html here, and bla bla bla, so I think I might exceed it. Period - Simoneon
WHY THE SPOILER?! ~ Blue Phoenix
didn't you spoiler the conversation yourself? ~ Bamboori
BLOW BLOW!!! YOU FORGOT TO WRITE NAKATO IN 'WE'RE WATCHING YOU'!!!!! - Simoneon
To0 8ad. H4 D045n't d0 any MoDdin9 at A11!!!!!!! ~ blow_fly98
Evil Sonidow does, eh? - Simoneon
Of course. Just n0t v4ry 0ft4n. ~ blow_fly98
WHY THE 1337-SPEAK?! ~ Blue Phoenix
Because I am a KOALA!!! ~ blow_fly98
To be honest, I thought they use Eucalyptus-Speal..........
......
......
D: - Simoneon
Noez, Simon forgot to close his notice! ~ Blue Phoenix
oh no its the end of the world! *panic* ~ Bamboori
Gzz Hizz Fz Mzzz
Anyone got a Eucalyptus-speak interpreter?
And did you know that a user can have more than 4 images in their signature if we edit it for them? Or am I just the last one to find out?
~ blow_fly98
OMG spoilers in spoilers! ~ Bamboori
OMG offtopic in offtopic! - Simoneon
OH HAI GUYZ, i didnt you see you thar :P ~ Alectric
Now, I seriously need to be a part of this. ~ SirFrog
Wasn't there something about childish mods editing signatures lately? ~ Reaper
What?!?! Where was it?!?!?! ~ blow_fly98
DO YOU HAVE SUGAR?! - Simoneon
I heard if you edit someone's signature enough, your profile automatically is set to Admin status. BP told me. ~ Alectric
then let's do this! ~ Bamboori
Just because I don't go around checking every single post and editing signatures doesn't mean that I don't mod here. I just don't check posts that aren't reported. ~ Evil Sonidow
Seriously. We should encourage people to start reporting more :/ - Simoneon
EvErYoNe'S pOsTeD hErE eXcEpT mH.
Hey, maybe we could report every single post just so ES could check them. ~ blow_fly98
You know, that's a hell lot of work. What about a rule that everyone has to report at least one post whenever he logs in? Or an auto-report function? ~ Reaper
I liked the report-part until we got to the point of an auto-report function. That's something that requires work --> No. ~ Blue Phoenix
Finally, I get to see some invisible users. *sniggers* ~ blow_fly98
Oh, i came back. Well, since im already here, i may as well shoot bees ~ Alectric
You know, the ducks are watching. Always watching... ~ SirFrog
Hmm, I think, Lauli is about to climax due to the awesomeness of this color-wall ~ Blue Phoenix
