Sam Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Yes, its finally happening! I am in the process of moving the site over to our new host, which will take some time, and there maybe some downtime from the site. Hopefully after this, the site will stop crashing or being unavailable! Thanks shafz, Rebel, Adrianc333 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 I thought you would have enough computermebobs at home to power the site by now Sam? Phantom Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted January 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Don't think my 5 year old Dell would be up to it, or my net connection for that matter! We're using close to 200GB of traffic a month these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Jesus, 200GB is a fair old whack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted January 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Considering we use under 10GB of disk space it sure is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Thanks guys. Just a heads up to say the move will go ahead tomorrow (Tuesday). Hopefully it'll be limited downtime. Phantom Mark, Rebel, CharlE46 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuBeeDoo Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Can I just ask.......... Is the move of host likely to reduce the incidence of spamming? The latest one (viagara, on the calendar thread) made me wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted February 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Most likely not, unfortunately. But we have mods on most of the day so it should get picked up quickly. Quicker if reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
