Moved to a Dedicated Server

[KeithD]

I have moved this forum twice already this year due to server issues. From one VPS to another. However, the forum is so big, and consumes so many resources that today I have put it on a dedicated server. To those who have no idea what that is, the whole server belongs to me. It is not a cheap option, but ensures all the 'DB errors', etc, should now vanish. I do run other sites on it as well.

This means that instead of being capped with resources on a VPS, the forum now has 250GB SSD, 2x 1TB SATA, 32GB memory, and 24 XEON cores, 1GBps network pipeline to make use of. Specs that put your desktops and laptops to shame. :icon_lol:

So far it is running as smooth as Arthur's waxed legs :omg::omg::omg::omg:

Good point Michael.

I thought the board was rejecting mine because I was too ugly. :cwm3:

Is the avatar not working?

I have not had one error since the move. :smile:
