Special Server Maintenance
Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.
Good Point IMHO...

Actually I think this was a very good point and an insight into Nico's character.
Nico Rosberg has given some insight into what he will do in the future after admitting "life has more to offer than driving around in circles".
Of course there is the matter of having more time for family, more time for friends and being in control of my whole life as well. Since I was a 10 year old the whole season is planned by other people, telling you where you need to be and especially in F1 -- its really, really intense. And now I have this complete freedom."
"One of the avenues that I want to go down is to give something back. Find something that really touches my heart, so I'm going to go exploring different avenues. I'm going to go to Germany and visit children who are really quite ill, especially of the age of children who are really happy to see me and give them a great time.
"Renewable energy could be quite interesting, there are so many things and opportunities - electric car for example, I had a Tesla as a taxi the other day in Switzerland so it's quite impressive we have come that far."
Rosberg also revealed how his study of philosophy had given him extra strength while fighting for the title.
"It's the same for actors, for singer, even for politicians. I think it's a challenge because you get put up on a pedestal by so many people around the world when you're doing good things in your environment and it can sometimes be a bit difficult to cope with that. I think that's why we see so many singers and actors, especially, losing the plot and going a bit off the rails.
"But I think every person has to go about it in his own way, and I have definitely struggled with that at times but managed to find my way with it. I've studied philosophy for ten years and that has been a huge benefit because every little issue, suffering or doubt you have, there has been someone in the past who has had exactly that same thing -- and there's been a genius in the past who has had exactly that same thing and has been able to write it down to make it really understandable.

"life has more to offer than driving around in circles".
Which is exactly why IMHO, folks shouldn't slam Lewis for what he does for those brief moments when he's not "driving around in circles"....
