Just wanted everyone to be aware of what we are doing in the background.

We currently share the box we are on with twtex.com and while this has been
beneficial being able to split the hosting costs that site has a lot more traffic
than we do at the moment.

Therefore, we'll be moving ST-Owners off to a new box within the next month.
We are targeting for this to be completed by the end of August but we've just
begun discussions with the host so nothing is set in stone as of yet.

What does this mean for you? Well, there will be a short period where ST-Owners
won't be available and we are testing it so make sure everything works. It
also means that the speed of the site should remain at an optimal level since
we aren't sharing the processor with another site.

We'll post more as we know more but I just wanted to give everyone a heads-up
on what is coming down the road.

You mean you are not going to wait for the redux of the great crash of ought seven before doing this?

Even if we did crash again.. we have backups now.. so we might only loose a day at the most.

When I seen the title of this thread, I thought for sure some news hound had ferreted out the truth about WeSTOC by observing the migration of STeeds toward the Pacific Northwest.

We only need to keep it quite for a few more weeks guys.....shuuussh

Does this mean that we will be on our own dedicated server?

Yes, I still need to make some phone calls so I don't have an exact time frame at the moment.. but yup, we'll have our own box.
