...I'm going to look for somewhere else to host LEF - the virtual server we are on now is becoming flakey. More news as I get it...
No need to jump too fast into something else. Reliability of the forum has seemed to be pretty good over the last months, i can easily allow for a couple of slack days a year. Most important is that the host stays updated with security patches to prevent hijacking
Hm, well, probably the less said about that the better...
TBH this is not the first time Daily have let us down. The worst outage was, ironically, when I was stuck in hospital with pneumonia and pleurisy a few years back - 4 days of nothing...
The reason I am so sensitive to downtime is, the Lister Engine Forum of old would disappear for hours, days even weeks at a time. Unfortunately, we've permanently lost hundreds of members because of that. So every hour of downtime, to me, is deeply annoying and frustrating. And anyway, this being my Virtual Server, I have a few bits of my own on it too, and I'd quite like them to be more available...
Fear not - there's no rushing involved, I've got a couple of possibilities lined up, just need to chose the right one & the right time to go.
Cheers!
Ade.
