I have been doing a lot of coding in the past month or two on a bunch of new features and changes to the website.  This weekend I plan on releasing a large number of updates to the website.  I will need everyone's help to make sure that nothing has been broken in the process.  Rather it should be fixing things. 

Some of these updates include

1. Trade DB being added (need more testing on this still...)
2. own3d.tv being added to Caster DB
3. New Home portal page update (re-arranged and changed article configuration)
4. Fixing scripts that configure parts of the website (for instance, stream online/offline status will be fixed)

Depending on how this update rolls out on Friday, I may or may not release another huge update on Sunday which is what I am really worried about.  On RTS-Sanctuary we will be introducing friendly URL's compared to our current set of URLs.

Example:
http://rts-sanctuary.com/index.php?portal=...OST&Code=00&f=1
to something more like
http://rts-sanctuary.com/Age-Of-Empires-On...ode-00/Forum-1/

I have been doing a lot of work on this new URL system, and i am very concerned that this new system may cause one of two problems:

1. Slower web page loading (if so I will optimize it to not cause any slow downs)
2. Broken images or links

The first is just something people will have to pay attention to and notice.  The second is where I really need a lot of testing to make sure nothing huge breaks.  If a small few links break, I can fix them, but if there are major problems, then we need to roll back the server version and test it on my local server (which is slow).

Thank you guys, and I hope in this next weekend we will see a lot of great things happen for RTS-Sanctuary :)

Good luck with that, and yeah it will be a lot of broken links.

But if it's worth it then it's great.

Good luck again and thanks for your work.
