site may go missing this afternoon 18/8
« on: 18 August 2009, 15:48 »
I have the server management company doing a number of updates to the kit that this site runs on.

This will require some down time for system reboots. Hopefully nothing major but if it is a bit flakey this afternoon, there is your reason :)

Over a year of great performance with the same hosting company - whodathunkit? :afro:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I didn't even notice any downtime. Must be a great hosting company :)

Indeed, since we lost a load of the database it's been really good!
