Downtime to be expected

Hello everyone,

We're being moved to a new server within site5 shortly....

Downtime will be expected due to DNS, should be around 15 minutes so i'm told.

Regards.

Animus,

Switching hosts is a big ordeal, one that should be taken as a last step. We have decided to give Site5 one last chance since they promised the issue was due to us being on a server that couldn't handle such a popular site

They will be switching us to a less-crowded server and hopefully raising some of our MySQL limits to see if we can remove the almost-daily downtimes.

If the downtimes stop, we will stay with Site5, otherwise we will have no choice but to go with a semi-dedicated server from a company Rob is looking at.

Regards,
Patrick
