eleet Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 So I'm on AIM Monday night and the guy who owns the reseller account that AE is hosted on IMs me telling me that his reseller account with Servage.net is going to be terminated on Feb. 28th because Servage.net is doing away with their reseller program. He says he can move us to his other reseller account with a different host. Long story short, I used my 1337 h4x0r skilz and found a new hosting company entirely. We're officially done forever with resellers. They've done nothing but cost us more money, offer us no support, and complicate everything else. No more middle man for AE. We've signed up directly with Surpass Hosting. Their datacenter is located in Orlando Florida, USA. Our old account with the reseller, through Servage.net, was hosted in Germany (LOL they don't advertise their location, how the fuck was I supposed to know). Surpass Hosting costs us less money! We're also on much better hardware, meaning the site should be a lot faster. There shouldn't be anymore unannounced downtime. Link to comment

Ceraziefish Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Woo-hoo! Sounds like everything's going awesome! One of these days I will get a way of sending money over the internet and then donate to AE. Anyway, thanks a lot Elite for getting that all figured out! Hopefully with our new hosting, we'll be able to, ahaha, um, surpass our old hosting. Link to comment

eleet Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Yeah I'd like to change the logo. Additionally, I really need to update the board from IPB 2.1.7 to 2.2.2. It's a completely free upgrade as we've got a lifetime license for IPB. Our skin was JUST updated for 2.2.x as well. The only thing we won't have for another month or so after the upgrade, is the spoiler tag mod, and it's not like many people us that anyways. I don't know when I'm going to upgrade us though, we just had 4 days of downtime. Upgrade only takes about 1 hour though. Link to comment
