Game Maker Station to move servers in November
From Game Maker Station
Best get ready for the change, no word if the site will be down during the switch though, I'll keep you informed on any new updates regarding this matter.
Dear allIf you ask me I think that instant submissions is a bad idea, but hey, who am I to judge?
Game Maker Station's server is moving to allow for more disk space. Also we are re designing our HTML website to PHP soon. The staff is currently working on getting this all programmed. Wish them the best of luckThese changes will be made in November.
NEW - Rather than needing admin approval, site submissions will be instant. If they are bad, they will be reported.

Game Maker Station proposes merge with 64Digits
Frederick Watson of Game Maker Station proposed a merge with 64Digits recently, claiming "Game Maker Station has the extra pieces of the puzzle that you are seeking."
According to Frederick, 64Digits "won't have to pay for your domain anymore which will mean extra money in your pocket." which leads to the conclusion that 64Digits will now be known as Game Maker Station and no longer will 64Digits be the community it once would be.
"I think this could be a great opportunity for both of us. We have so much in common."
Yet Frederick makes the follow accusations about 64Digits:
1). Your forums are dead <- The SMF forums have been dead for years, while these are alive, just not very active.
2). your blogs are nearly dead
3). even if we were to merge and bring more traffic, it would be too difficult to work out all of services and extra websites and communities who are connected to Game Maker Station.
