Guys,
As you can see, the site is up and running again.
I received this email from David (site admin) earlier this evening.
Its definitely an incompatibility issue with the forced PHP version upgrade. I haven't had a chance yet to back up everything and try upgrading the forum software to a compatible version (hopefully the version isn't too old to upgrade easily) as a long term fix.
For now, I was able to roll the server back to an older PHP version which looks to have worked for the short term (we have a few weeks to fix it before they permanently drop support for the old version).
So it sounds like we may have to endure yet another upgrade to stabilize the content. Whether this upgrade will cause more shutdown-time, I will try to find out.
In the meantime, we can proceed with business as usual.
If you're reading this, David (aka digicrat), THANK YOU.

Re: Reel Society Software Update Issue
Yeah, to back up what you have said Shryke, really appreciate the effort taken to get the site back up and running in such a short space of time.
With so many things about to start up again (Music countdown, awards nominations, super leagues etc), it is a relief that we have someone with the know how to resolve things like this so smoothly. Obviously there are bigger problems ahead and hopefully they can be resolved as easy as this, but in the meantime, it's good to have the site up and running again.
So big thanks to the site admin!
