I am well aware of the speed issues with our current web host.
I have a new web host ready to go, but I am having issues with the database transfer. I am working on getting it resolved. once I do, after a short downtime - we will be on a much faster server.
I have been with my current web host for almost 10 years, and they won't do shit to help us.
Thank you in advance for your patience.

Useless fucking host (1and1.com - fuck them) went down for a few hours.
I am still getting shit straightened out - there's a PHP setup issue with the new host, i have a ticket in with them to see if they can fix it.

The host move is done - most DNS records have updated.
Speed seems noticeably faster to me, time will tell.

Took me by suprise when I had to sign back in Mark, but it does seem fast now. :icon_super:

Still seems to hang some but a whole lot faster than it was. :icon_super:

You guys are VERY quiet since the move.
I know there's a few bugs to work out, but any input from you folks would help greatly.
PM, email - or post. How's the board since the host move?
Thanks!

Other than the BPG banner taking forever to load and the site hanging once in a while before it loads up a page it's working fine. :icon_super:

Where's our skin, mang?

What skin?
You can change themes here. I had to force everyone back to the default skin for the move.

Exactly...
-
Lazy ass
-
I can see how to change themes. Will the dark colored theme be back?
-
Back In Black? It's on there. I am using it.
-
I don't get that option.
-
I don't get that option.
Doh. I fixed it. Try now
-
doh!
-
It says 240 something people are on the default (white) theme. Only 2 of us on back in black. Good thing we figured that out. The board did not look right!

thanks for fixing the firefox issue....and the BPG banner is the first thing I saw :add_wegbrech:
-
Some thing's load great and some take forever. This may have to do with the shoutbox showing with every page you open. :hmm

That's on them - it's almost 1gb in size. Kinda like the GNS Performance banner - that one is over 2gb. :O
Once it caches, it shouldn't take as long, depending on your browser.

Seems to be working well.
-
You are a good man to have dealt with the server as you did. No one even made any snide remarks over it either.
Thanks for your effort AJ___
-
Thanks guys. I want to make it work for you. no more server errors, or molasses-like page loads.

I do get slow loading sometimes but it has to do with either the BPG banner or if there's lots of pics in the post. :x
