I've joined, but wouldn't it be possible to transfer everybody onto the backup, giving everybody some arbitory password - like mamod - just in case?

Hi Mate, just get onto the link given by James at the start of this thread. When the forum comes up, rejoin as if you are a new member, but keep all the same details, name, etc.

Then forget about it, if this site crashes, we just switch to the other one.

Hopefully, the need won't arise.

Sorry to stick my oar in,  but wouldn't it be better to have the backup forum hosted with another provider?

Any problem is likely to be with myfreeforum.org so having the backup forum with them is still putting all the eggs in one basket.  

There are other options.  e.g.  http://www.makeforum.org/home.php

I hate to agree, but if a back up was needed, another host would be wise as the downfall of the host would most probably be the need for the back up.

Thanks for the input and that is a great idea.

Something I never thought of.

Once something is sorted we will let you know

Ok, I'm done and joined again. But I have to say if we got lost again I'd still need someone to e-mail me at work and get me back to our new home.
