BrokenStones is on the Move

Staff have decided, it is time to boot BS into a new era.

We have moved before but it was a forced relocation due to technical issues. However this time around, the move is under our control. There are now some new major changes which we wish to bring to to the site.
We have a shiny new set of toys to play with. This includes server, irc updates and more.

Staff have been testing the new site out. There are still some glitches but hey we are only human.

Do not worry

“If you ever change your mind about leaving it all behind, remember: No geography.”

We will take you all along on our new journey, .....As we have for a long time, BrokenStones is here to serve you our members.

We will still be delivering the same high quality of service as before. So basically nothing at the front of house will change.

As mentioned above, there may be one or two minor issues when we move. Some of these can only be dealt with once the transfer is complete.

Currently happening

Rules/Wiki

Some of you may have noticed our rules and Wiki are subtly being revamped. We are looking to align and combine into one.

IRC Upgrade

A slicker and more responsive IRC

Plus other minor tweaks.....

Please take time to read everything below.


Important!
The current BrokenStones server will be temporarily offline March 01-2023 UTC for a few hours while the current backups of everything are migrated to the new server. Once the migration is complete the old server will be re-redirecting everyone to the new server and domain. We can not give a precise time on the day due to the global nature of the site and Staff timelines.

The new domain

This will be announced on the day of the transfer.

Seeding or downloading torrents;
The domain change will mean all your current torrents that are seeding or downloading will need to be re-downloaded from the new domain/server.
The upload form on the new server will automatically show you the new announce url required.

What happens to the old server and domain;
The old domain will temporarily remain active until the end of its paid term.
The old server will remain active for 90 days to help users migrate to the new server and domain. This is subject to change if the drive crashes again and a hardware failure forces it down.


A change is in the wind

The above forum is for Staff and Members to relay the progress of the site move. In this forum we will also be giving advice and help on how to transition your client with 'adding the new tracker announce url to your client'. This is not a forum for complaints..

re: Current Freeleech Event

During the site transition, the site will remain in Freeleech, until further notice.

Note:
ALL Torrents uploaded before this announcement are Freeleech!
ALL Torrents uploaded after this announcement are Freeleech!
Neutral Leech torrents will remain Neutral Leech.
Torrents will return to their previous leech status after this event ends.
Torrents uploaded during the event will revert to Normal Leech after this event ends.

❗ Please make sure to check that torrents are listed as Freeleech on the torrent browse page, and keep a close watch on your data (especially during the beginning and ending of the Freeleech).

We will see you on the other side

i hope it's open
