service upgrade will significantly enhance the performance of your
website in terms of speed and reliability.


IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRANSFER:

Yay! better server means faster load times, fastter uploads and faster postings The whole site will run better, not that it's bad right now, but just imagine how smooth it'll be on the new server

Arg no. Does that mean I can't upload that 500mb file I want to upload?

 

[Ralle]

well as long as it isnt friday

 

[brad.dude03]

haha, well, i'm sure it'd be possible, but i wouldn't try it. there will be stress enough on the server as it is (i imagine) from them transferring everything to the new one. it's cool how they can transfer everytying whilst you are using the site though.

Does this mean we cant post?

 

[Ralle]

well I think it will take like 20 minutes for them to transfer everything and maybe the database will not be the database right NOW but one a few minutes old which means that files and posts added in the 20 minutes could be lost.. but just go post and save a tutorial if you write that.. save it in a txt file..

 

[brad.dude03]

thats what I'd imagine that it'd be, they said there would be no down time, so I wouldn't be surprised if you could post while they transfer it, but if not it isn't the end of the world, you just lose a few posts.

 

[Ralle]

well I guess it's done now.. what do you think?

 

[brad.dude03]

not bad at all, we lost a few posts, as nemesis pointed out, but other then that i've noticed faster page load times and the like which is awesome

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

I feel no difference whatsoever

 

[Dork990]

I feel it. It loads a heck of a lot faster now.
Maybe your computer sucks

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Shut up, my computer doesent suck and the site has been loading almost instantly always for me, that is why I feel no difference, asshole.

 

[Bob27]

yea same with me. I don't really feel any difference because it was already loading it very fast before.

 

[GST_Nemisis]

same.

 

[Archian]

no diffrence same speed (fast)
