The Good: YWS is now on a dedicated server. This means much faster loading times and easier management for myself.
The Bad: YWS was done for about a day because something got messed up; a something that I have yet to discover what it exactly was. But, everything is back to normal now.
The Ugly: If you were a member of JustGoat.com, all your posts are gone. |

| Ah... well... at least YWS is back up. And at least it was down while I was busy. |

| There's probably a few posts missing, but not many. Fortunately I had the foresight to back up everything before I did the switchover. Unfortunately, I did not have such foresight with regards to JG. |

Does this switch mean that you ditched the old system, making YWS independant? Or is it a part of the $40 a month plan?
I'm glad this site is back up, otherwise I'd go into withdrawl, which is an ugly thing. |

Ouch... that is ugly...
But I'm really glad YWS is back up. I nearly spazzed out when I realized that I couldn't get on. |

I got scared when I couldn't get on the site...it was like a bad scene from Scary Movie, I got so bad.
But now everything's back...YAY!! |

YWS is now being hosted on a virtual dedicated server, which is basically like 1/4 of a server, which is all that's needed (and should be all that's needed for many years; even if YWS grew to 100,000 members over that time). On the same plan, I'm also running a couple of other sites, and JustGoat.com will be back up too when I get around to fixing that debacle (tonight probably).
There's some cool things about running off a server now too. For instance, I could now make it such that people could host their site with YWS; www.justgoat.com and www.nathancaldwell.net will both be hosted with YWS. |
