Outage explanation
« on: Sunday, April 13, 2008, 02:35:58 PM »
Sorry for the outage.  The reason for the outage is we moved hosts and had to synchronize the database and DNS namespace.  There was a bit of miscommunication and simply missing each other as we had to do all this between I, Ant, and our new host.  Anyway everything should be up and running fine and I hope you like the significant performance improvement.

Those were the most horrible two days I've ever lived through.  I starting posting messages in Word, then at night I'd get blackout drunk and reply to those messages with your guys' names.  It...well, it was fucked.

I was guessing you accidentally left it in maintenance mode again. :p

Anyway, thanks for the work! <3

Yeah, thanks to you both.  I know we don't express it often enough, but we really do appreciate the work you do very much.  I look forward to the day we get into a stage where I can actually contribute something and hopefully pay you back in some small measure.

Thanks for the update.  I was getting terrible response time from here for the last couple weeks so I visited rarely since it took forever to load.  Cheers you two!.

Things seem to be significantly better now on the new host.  Hopefully they'll stay this way.  Sorry about the long downtime, but I'm working graveyard shifts now, and Scott and I kept missing each other.  Anyway, everything seems to be working much better now.
