We Are Moving Servers

Global Paw · 04-12-2005, 08:39 PM

This is also posted in the announcements forum...but I'll post it here too.

We're moving servers! For many reasons, including:

1) I hate our old host, 1and1.com.
2) I like our new host better, hostgator.com
3) I can use our free member email script at hostgator (yay)
4) I save a bunch of money every month (yay again, I need money)
5) I hate our old host, 1and1.com (yes, I hate them that much)

So, we will be down, starting tonight! We'll be back up as soon as possible, I would say at the latest, Sunday night. Sorry for the downtime, it'll be worth it.

Update: The new server is on it's way. We have not yet moved, but are ready to move at any time. We will be down again in the next few days, starting as soon as tonight, or as late as Monday night. We will keep you updated as we go along.

yes, it will be the same website as before, just faster because of the new server. The server will be set up between tomorrow and Wednesday, and when that happens, I will once again shut the forums down to move.

Yes, but your laptop has to hold so much more than a server, a server just holds files...for example, GlobalPaw, as an entire website, is only 400 MB, which is very large for a website. The database is 100MB. Think about it, a website is just text.

The server we are on right now has a 40GB hard drive...and we have a lot of extra room.

ChiChi · 04-15-2005, 09:57 AM

OOOHHH! AHHH!!! WOWZA! i have no clue what those r

.... lol
