Ok, so Zymic, please don't take it personally that I'm switching hosts. You have been great, but I'm moving to a host owned by a buddy of mine and I want to support him. Since my site is a forum, I don't want to lose all my members and posts when I move to the new host. Would you be so kind to tell me if I can have the database or at least tell me how to transfer the database over?

I really hope you guys can help me out, I love this host and I've recommended it to a lot of my friends.
Thanks Zymic smile.gif

my site is

you can transfer all of the fields of the database by just copying and pasting, but i dont think you can export your database or directly transfer it from zymic. You wont lose anything if you simply (but time taking) copy and paste every field, and then transfer all of the files over. you would however have to change the database e.t.c. from what you put in when you set the forum up.

what is the host that you are transferring to?
Hendo
its actually a kinda niche host for macintosh developers. Heres the description:
QUOTE
It is designed for developers who code in SilverCreator and need a place to host stuff. You can host other games or programs too but you need some SilverCreator games on your site to qualify.

- 500 MB space with free upgrades
- 10 gigs transfer with free upgrades
- Unlimited pop3 emails, etc.
- Host your domain name for free or choose blah.silvercreator.net
- No ads
- Full cPanel account
- All the cool stuff like PHP and Perl
- Solid Core 2 Duo server, fully managed and located in Chicago, IL.

Free upgrades means that in the course of hosting your games, etc. that you need more space or bandwidth just ask and you will receive a free upgrade. For example if you are using 9 gigs bandwidth for your game downloads just ask and we'll up your limit for free. So it's basically unlimited.

If you want to sign up just send an email to me at mikerich88 AT earthlink DOT net and put in the subject "SILVERCREATOR FREE HOSTING" and pick a subdomain or full domain, login, and password. You will be set up asap.
