I must say, currently it's 5:00 AM, I've been up since 5:00AM yesterday morning. I don't think there is a week that goes by I don't spend at least one whole day and a half awake for 36 hours. :-\.
Last night on a whim, me and Shane were talking, after me repeatedly getting pissed off at the down times we've been having, I mean literally, if I could have kicked the old data center master in the head, I would have, I told him lets move to a data center I trust, know, help control and can provide better services from. So what did we do, we made a snap decision, in about 15 minutes, there really was no debating, arguing, or even disagreeing, it was all doing, funny thing how guys understand each other even if they are continents away. We both knew it was for the benefit of both you and us to do this. Not only are we sitting in a Tier 4 data center now, but we are sitting on a server that I helped setup, we are boasting a bad ass HP Prolient Server with enough power to rip your house apart, so I KNOW IT WILL RUN RIGHT. Yes dammit, the days of archaic hosting we used to be on, are no longer, we are godly and leet now. We must partially thank my contacts over at (mt) for getting me the hosting so fast on such short notice. It helps to be geeky and know other powerful geeks ;).
Now, I know the sites been down all night, but Jesus, what do you expect, we have a huge ass site, I moved the data all by my self. Yes :(, I know poor Jordon, no really, I was happier we were moving then I was pissed off that it took me all night to move the data, successfully I might add.
NOW, I know there might be a few errors you run into, politely tell me IN THIS THREAD, or Thank me for convincing Shane to let us move to a better data center ;) and don't forget to hand Shane a round of applause for taking this giant leap. We mostly want to know about new errors, so please, if you find an old error, reply to the old thread, not in this thread, other wise, post it in this thread.
Be proud, we are running stronger now, and now that we have solved our biggest problem, we can solve the little problems, like better services, fixing errors faster and even other things we are to tired to think about right now.
