Okay, I have some explaining to do.
Tuesday morning, I arrived at work to an e-mail from my host saying that they took my site down. The reason why wasn't hacking, spam complaints, or anything bad exactly. We had simply grown too big, too fast for the server to support. We've grown from a tiny site to a medium site... and now to a pretty large site. My idea from several years ago has become an overwhelming success!
As in, we've been so successful we've overwhelmed and crashed the server. ^_^;;
So my host shut us down and told me I'll have to get a dedicated server.
Right now, we share a server with probably 10 other sites. That's fine for small sites, they won't use all those resources. They're also very affordable. The downside is that if one site becomes a resource hog, it affects everyone on that server.
A dedicated server means it'll only be us on that server. We'll be the only ones using the resources. Everything should work better and faster. The downside is that it's also dramatically more expensive.
How much more expensive is what I'm trying to figure out.
It's not you, it's us. All your stories are safe, that's no problem. But I won't be able to bring the site back online until I get this new server.
I'll also say this... I'm no longer in college, internship is done, and I'm now working in my field... but my free time is now mostly limited to the weekends. I'll get it taken care of as quickly as possible, but it might take a while. Please be patient!
Please spread the word. Luna isn't dead... just kind of in a medical coma for the moment. ^_^;;
