**** Upgrade time again ****

[RichG]

Due to an explosion in the number of visits we are getting, and the shared hosting the site is on, we are experiencing some errors.

I apologise for this, and would like to inform you all that we are moving to a more dedicated hosting package in the near future.

If possible I will give you notice of the change over, but this may not be entirely possible.

Please bear with us while the change over takes place.

Thanks

RichG

Having just clicked on 'More' under the list of smileys, I think it's safe to assume there are already an ample number!

Good news about the upgrade guys. Quite often recently I've hit an error whilst navigating the forums, so any efforts to make things a bit more reliable are much appreciated.

Keep up the sterling work.

Re: **** Upgrade time again ****

We have moved servers and hopefully the errors are now a thing of the past

It may take a little while to settle in as these things do sometimes.

Thanks for your patience while the upgrade took place!

Had it not been for a very long and dull meeting this afternoon I would have been faced with the very real danger of having to do some actual work.

Thank god things are back up and running again.

Re: **** Upgrade time again ****

Not much I could do about the timing, I was dependent on hosts, and DNS!

Re: **** Upgrade time again ****

many thanks Rich for the hard work today!

I'm sure we'll all be happier without the server errors.
