Server Move

GrandOldTeam · July 11, 2024

Blues,

As you may have seen, we were unavailable for an hour this morning.

This was to allow us to move to a new and improved server. We now have increased capacity to moan about Everton.

Big thanks to @mattw of https://mattwservices.co.uk for sorting in rapid time. If it was left to me, the site would have been down until August...

Worst hour of my life.

Could you not have scheduled it for Sunday evening? Things are generally much quieter then.

No new server is big enough to cope with some Everton Fans never ending moaning :lol:

You mean it wasn't Dave DDOSing you? I liked my head canon better.

Tries to enter this thread. Stuck looking at this for a good 30 seconds.

Unsure whether it's your janky new server or the wifi I'm stealing from a business over the road.

I thought we didn't get ads if we were a "supporter? Or maybe I'm just dreamin' or read something wrong. See below. Only happens on here and they're a really annoying type of ad.

You get less ads.

Not meant to have them ones though they should be for guests only. You don't get ads stuck to the bottom on mobile do you?

No ads option is for people who are minted and can lash a tenner a month on a sub.

I rarely use mobile (maybe 3%) as I hate phones after 3+ decades on a PC, only use it on mobile when at work and something's goin on I want to keep up with (transfers etc). It's mainly that they (ads) hog up vertical screenspace, which is terrible because of the typical, vertical (which is ideal) forum layout.

On it, unless I forget..been on this current plan so long.
