The Future of WyldRyde

So what does the future hold for WyldRyde? I have spent a lot of time thinking about this topic and have gone back and forth in my head several times, but I’ve come to a decision that I feel is best.

Information Regarding WyldRyde Updates

As planned, WyldRyde went down for a few moments yesterday evening as part of our rolling-out UnrealIRCd updates.  Now, a day after the updates completed and WyldRyde is functioning normally once again, I’d like to take this opportunity to explain what exactly has changed.

WyldRyde Maintenance Planned for the Evening of Friday, August 5th

WyldRyde will be installing updates to the UnrealIRCd server backend during the late evening (aprox. midnight EST) of Friday, the 5th of August 2011.  These updates will help us to better our IPv6 support and will fix a handful of known bugs with the version of Unreal that we are currently running. As part of these [...]

WyldRyde On Track for IPv6 Adoption

WyldRyde Website Redesigned

After many years of the same old web design on WyldRyde.org we have finally launched a completely new design for the site which we hope will last us well into the future.

Ustream redesign changed ustream chat behavior

If you had your Ustream channel page redirected to WyldRyde you were probably surprised to find out this evening that your Ustream flash chat no longer goes to WyldRyde but to Ustream’s own chat server instead. Ustream launched a redesign minutes ago and reset all the chat rooms back to their own chat server. Apparently, [...]

Services problem – ns_recover

This is a known bug and Anope have already fixed it in their latest SVN release. We have made the decision to disable the module, therefore removing [...]
