Downtime

[abarnes]

Well, after last weeks downtime, I told you we would be moving, the old host was...for lack of a better word incompetent, We've moved to a new server, but they took the server down a little early, so things had to be done faster than expected.

Hence the downtime, thanks to Lonewolf things got done faster tho, and we are now back up, minus a few things such as the newer media, which will be fixed soon, I am also working on a new batch of media to be added to the site.

Sorry for the downtime.

if its for the better of the site then so be it. good job getting things back up!

yeah it's for the better I can see the improvement... so fast!

Yeah it does seem mad faster

Yeah Dimenoc's network is much better than what we were on *grumbles* Its good to have everything moved and hopefully it'll be a much more stable situation. Moving is a bitch!

Though my gut instinct is that at some point if the site grows at a healthy rate we'll need to move it again since right now its on the media server and if 200-300 people are downloading at once (which the Apache webserver we're now running on wont even support- it'll just start locking everyone out from both media and the site) we'll have some really big preformance issues. But that's not a bad thing! It just means we're popular and its time to expand!
