Server Migration
#1
We ran out of drive space, and expanding the filesystem failed. Thankfully, I backup before any operation like this, so I was able to get us back up on a brand new server. There should be no lost posts, and everything should *just* work. that said, if I missed a tweak or something in the migration somewhere and a bug shows up, please do let me know.

Do know:
PayPal charges me 3-5% per successful transaction. ( 2.99% domestic US, everywhere else it varies - although AU seems to be more like 1.5% )
Stripe charges me 2.9% + $0.30 per successful domestic transaction. More for people paying from outside the US
With the average donation size, Stripe eats up about 30% of the donation. Please only use it if you have to, and if you
do, please consider a larger donation to make up for transaction fees.

Oh, I'd like to mention, despite the board dying literally 48 hours before backups run, I was able to restore the database without any losses, because I just copied the actual database - no running scripts to reinstall it :D.
