di dKLS not recieve plenty of donations prior to her removing the donation link, i think the last thing said was over 1000 dollars which is more then plenty to purchase event he most kick ass dedicated server around. so what is being done with all that money is my question.
It only takes about 24 hours for a hosting company like ev1 to build a dedicated box so what is the holdup on it?
If the money isnt being used for the reason it was asked for it should be returned imo

Does it really matter that much as long as both the forums and LS is considerably more stable than it was previously? KLS does indeed have access to the current host now. Though, I don't know what all that includes. Since she got access about a week ago, the LS has been much better. While you may think this entire matter is simple, I am positive that it is much more complex than you would imagine.
As I said in the last update I gave, people don't need to worry about donations. They will either be used to handle new hosting, or they will be returned I am sure. They are in good hands. We will know the plans for them soon enough.
I don't know what the status is for KLS's access. Maybe she still needs database access to be able to pull down the SQL, or maybe some other type of access to be able to get the move rolling. Or, there could be some other hold-up. Whatever it is, I am sure that they are working on a solution.
Most likely, KLS has all of the access she needs now and they are still working to finalize the new setup before making any changes. People need to be able to register new accounts while things are being finalized, so as long as it isn't too impacting to the LS, I don't have a problem with things remaining as they are while the rest gets worked out.
Either way, I am pretty sure that registration will have to be handled a bit differently. My guess is that a simple registration page will have to be setup on the LS host to handle all registration and the forums will become completely separate from that system. I believe their new LS setup is still in the works and having to finish that as well as a new registration process takes time to get it right. So, just have a little patience.
I am sure you didn't donate any money personally, so it is really of no concern of yours anyway IMO. I would be willing to guess that most (if not all) people who actually did donate, have faith in KLS and are willing to wait patiently for the results. The issues with the Login Server are coming to a conclusion and will be fully resolved once everything is finalized.
