New address for the Motel
Posted: Sat Jul 18, 2009 12:14 pm
We are pleased to announce that the Motel has a new address: http://www.moonlightaholicsmotel.com/ Please bookmark it in case you need it. 
All memberships are still current. We have made a couple of cosmetic changes to the board, however, no-one needs to re-register.
For future reference, if MLA is offline, it will be for one of three reasons:
1. We need to do some type of maintenance work, in which case we will endeavor to give 2 - 3 days notice.
(We will provide a link to the Motel on the front page.)
2. There is an emergency and we have to close the board for repairs.
(We will provide a link to the Motel on the front page.)
3. Something beyond our control goes wrong - such as the web host's servers going offline.
(In that case, we can't leave a link as the entire board will be invisible. If that happens, please look for us at the Motel.)
In order to keep spammers out of the Motel, it will normally be closed. However, in the event of MLA needing maintenance, we will re-open the Motel if we anticipate being offline for more than a couple of hours. If MLA goes offline for reasons beyond our control, the Motel will be opened as soon as one of the team is aware of the problem. (All five of the moderators here are administrators at the Motel.)
Having said all that, we don't anticipate problems - we are, however, prepared ... just in case.
So if MLA is offline, please go to the Motel and see if it's open for business. 
Your MLA admin / mod team.

I've got it bookmarked!
Every time I think we are running smoothly and mention the Motel - we end up back there unexpectedly!
