NOTICE: SERVER MOVE / UPDATE PENDING = JULY 28 - JULY 31

Postby John T. Folden » July 28th, 2010, 6:29 pm

This is a heads up that the Pub and its associated sites will be undergoing a server move at some point within the next 3 days.

The actual move will, likely, occur sooner rather than later. However, it may take a day or more for your personal internet provider to recognize the "move" in some cases, which means you may experience a period of time where we appear to be "down" or offline when we actually are not. As usual, we will make all efforts to ensure that we are down for as little actual time as possible.

I'll update this thread as the process continues.

Yes indeed! It seems to have been very painless and as I've heard no comments otherwise, I'll assume it's going smoothly for other visitors as well. :-)

I've never been hosted on this type of server before so now we'll see how it runs long term. ;-)

Just like you Riley, I've not noticed any differences so it sounds good to me. :D Thankyou for looking after us all so well, John. :hug:

The people that work at LiquidWeb are really a very good group and everything seems to run fairly smoothly there. It has been the most trouble free host I've had, so far.

Ironically, the support staff that work evenings seem to be really on the ball, too. The quickest, most efficient, and smartest responses seem to come from the night shift. :wwolf:
