Server Status
Server Status posted by Chad on Monday 7 January 2008 at 9:52PM
So we had quite the adventure getting this new server rolling. I'm really sorry for the delays and I wish I could thank each of you personally for your patience. There was quite a combination of events that contributed to the long duration of the upgrade, from a storm kicking Badger off the net, to a key technician with our ISP calling in sick, to some faulty hardware, but it looks like we're finally running well enough to open the site back up to visitors.

There will definitely be some configuration issues that we have to fine-tune before we are fully satisfied with the move, but we should be on a solid platform now for continuing to increase the performance of the site and handle the growth we are seeing. Thanks for hanging in there. Unfortunately we are not immune to growing pains, but to me this site is something special, and I appreciate what everyone does to make this a friendly, active, and fun community. That's really what makes it all worth it.
