The site is experiencing some issues that I can't quite figure out. The main issue is that the cookies used for logging in and chatting, posting news and comments and what not does not seem to work. No idea why.

At first I thought it was because google and firefox upped their security of cookies and it broke something, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I've updated my cookie creation method to be more inline with current standards and doesn't seem to make a difference.

Added to this, the new hosting service is having a hell of a time with my isp, or vice versa. I can barely connect via ftp on my home internet, and when I am to connect the changes don't seem to be taking sticking, even if i do it with the built in editing tools.

I'm wondering if the servers use some kind of aws and it's caching information and just won't let it go. It's all very frustrating because I've spoken with support of the new host and they can't figure it out either.
