Hi,

I just wanted to make sure everyone is aware The Stamp Shack has been migrated to a different internet hosting company. The server is twice as powerful in hardware as well. The downtime experienced by the community was unacceptable. You will find if in the rare event there is downtime it will be for a very short duration. I can tell you in my experience with the new hosting company downtime is extremely rare! We do have monitoring in place now so if the site goes down ever I will get a text and be calling the hosting company within 60 seconds! That is what I do.

In addition the software the community runs on has been upgraded and patched to the latest version.

Thanks for being part of the community. Looking forward to sharing and growing with all of you.

Sincerely,
Mike

Oh wow, that sounds very technically efficient! I was having such issues coming on here lately, that I think I kind of quit trying. Thank you so much taking care of it.

Hi Mike and welcome to the Shack! Everything sounds like you sure know what you're doing here. We already like you, you have a cute doggie as your avatar. ;)

Hi,

Glad you think we are going in the right direction. I also knew using a cute avatar would score me points ;) I am sure we will break an egg or two while we try to fix/improve but I promise we will promptly clean up any messes and in the end it will only add to everyone's experience.
