    Posted: January 05 2011 at 15:05
Hi all PAers.

In a continuous effort to offer a positive experience while surfing, using the site, I have decided to upgrade to a new and more powerful server to host the site and forum.

In a hope to :
  • eliminate the server timeouts and other related problems
  • faster response time and page loading
  • faster post response
  • handle more simultaneous users

Beware, I am planning to do it in the next hours or so, I am expecting a downtime of 1 or 2 hours.

Thanks and report issue here (once upgraded).

It's as if thousands of nerdy voices cried out in horror, and were suddenly silenced...

I am grabbing both my cat and my teddy bear for some quality time behind the sofa while I am contemplating the ins and outs of the forestry in Mongolia.

It's like a spacecraft going behind the moon and losing radio contact.

See you all on the other side.

M@X, all I can see now since you've upgraded the forum are a bunch of people whining about bands they don't like and a bunch of political and religious discussions!

Where are the girls?

Oh that was close, I suspected that was going on but I got home and almost went through severe withdrawal symptoms.  Any way you can do these in the middle of the night and freak people out on the other side of the planet? Tongue
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
