    Sorry Guys!!!!

    We were down about 7 hours today. The new host sucks at best. Anyone tells you to use a company called midphase, tell them the stick! This is the second issue in 1 month. We are looking for a new host.

    Ouch

    I had just received the funding to purchase a Triton II Charger. I tried all morning to get on to buy one here but I couldn't. I purchased one from Tower's instead. I am sorry.

    The good news is that now your back up I can buy the Jeti ESC I want.

    I hope you find a good host Steven!

                  Steven, Godaddy is the way to go. We have a dedicated server for going on five years now, only had a total of 17 minutes down time al five years. It's a bit pricey but is very reliable. They also have vertual dedicated serves and normal hosting packages as well. godaddy.com

                      I advise against Godaddy. I know 2 people who have had their domains taken with no help from godaddy.

                        What does that even mean? Do you mean they expired? or was there a domain heist, like a now you have a domain, now you don't thing?

                          Domains are very, very tricky and sleazy biz. My buddy started online in its infancy with his sign shop. One day he gets an email saying the hosting company was purchased and you have to pay 5k for the domain. He didn't pay. Now it belongs to a *!***!***!***!** site. No joke. The url has the word "sign" in it and has nothing to do with *!***!***!***!**. But he was getting about 5k worth of hits each month. I stay with register.com for my domains. They are ridiculously expensive, but my peace of mind is worth every penny!

                              The problem is the database. Shared hosting(what most smaller sites have) is normally not a problem and never was with the old site. The new site uses a database for the products and the forum. Right now the MAX number of people in that database is set to 40 users.
                              That's split between the products and forum. The max is being hit at some points of the day and giving us errors. The crash wasn't related, but did put fire under my a%^*& to move the forum to another host.
