We're back! (new domain, some data loss)

Hi everyone,

We're FINALLY back online.

Short version of a long, very stressful story: the old server died for good, and while we were busy trying to recover it, the old domain expired and got snapped up by a squatter before we could renew it. So this is our new home: lavender-lobby.eu. Please update your bookmarks and tell any old members you're still in touch with.

Data loss: our last good backup is from June 5, 2026. Anything posted after that is gone, I'm so sorry. Some profile details didn't survive either, and post counts might be a little off. Very old data from the Lillianth days seems to be lost too :(

Registrations: new sign-ups are paused for now while we iron things out. They'll reopen once everything is stable, so please be patient with us. Old members: your accounts came with us, just log in.

Thank you for sticking with us. The Lobby isn't going anywhere.

IT'S BACK. I've been checking the old address every couple of weeks like a ghost haunting her old house. last time it was showing some casino page and I genuinely thought that was it

Thank you Lilac. I know how much work this must have been, and I know you did it on your own time.

Is there anything we can do? Money for the new server, testing, anything?

@sagegamer honestly, just being here and being patient. If you spot something broken, post it in this thread and I'll add it to the list.

lost a couple of months of posts but whatever, we're HOME

yeah, uploaded avatars didn't make it, everyone has the default ones for now. Sorry! Profile fields you can just fill in again.

Is the members-only area still private after the move?

Yes! Same rules, same privacy, new address. Nothing members-only was ever public.

For anyone who can't log in: the password reset works, but the e-mail likes to land in spam. Check there before you panic.
