Default Site Downtime 21st-23nd March + Upgrades
Hi All,

This is advance notice that the the site and all it's sub-sites (mikeInside, sims2pack clean installer) will be down tonight for an upgrade to the machine that hosts us.

Please bear with us while this upgrade is completed - hopefully it wont be too long.

UPDATE 23rd March 2005. The site went down early this morning GMT for the RAM upgrade. This was completely successfully but a problem in one of the startup scripts meant that the mySQL didn't start correctly, thus resulting in the "We are experiencing a slight problem with the database" message that everybody saw until 9am this morning when I logged on.

This problem has now been corrected and I'm happy to report the site is running faster than ever

Thank you to everybody for being patient with us during the various sections of downtime we have experienced these past couple of days.

Regards,
Delphy

Now I'm not looking for absolution. Forgiveness for the things I do. But before you come to any conclusions. Try walking in my shoes. You'll stumble in my footsteps.
