Folks I want to apologize for the last couple days of shard going down. Today (Friday) we will be down once more, (on purpose) to switch Pandora over to a new server machine. The downtime is not with the shard it's self, but with the hardware of the machine at a host a thousand miles away from me.
A network card has been blowing out once a day. Since I have to take the time to fix this, may as well get a even better server since there is new technology all the time as far as hardware goes.
SO WE ARE GOING TO GET A SERVER THAT IS TWICE AS GOOD AS THE ONE WE HAVE NOW :) IT IS WAY MORE EXPENSIVE BUT I BELIEVE IN OUR DONATORS.
Hopefully this will fix it all and we will be smooth sailing once again. Just know we are working around the clock.
Thank you Pandoraians.
PS. We should only be down a hour to 2 max to change over the host
Thanx for all your hard work and the pree server shutdown notice.
Kon your the man, if i was a woman i would totally have your baby lol
Team, I just wanted to publicly say thank you to Konstantine for the time he has been dedicating to this.
Even though his work currently has him out of town, he has been tethering night and day for the last week while we isolated what the problem was and has spent pretty much the entire day working with our host to get the new server ready for Pandora.
SO THANK YOU KON!
Gang, I know that the outages and lag spikes have been frustrating, but the investment we are making today should help eliminate a lot of those headaches and help set us up to grow exponentially.
Thanks for being great players and a great community.
