Last year when the whole upgrade came into effect, this site was down for over a month. It was basically all of last summer if I remember correctly. After the last version was installed and things were up and running there was downtime at least once a week and sometimes it lasted for days with rarely if ever an answer to what the hell was going on or when the problem would be resolved.

I assumed that the folks who started this site pay some sort of hosting fee to Hoastboard, if not and they're getting the hosting for free, my mistake. If they are, it's a business. Maybe not a succesful one but a business nonetheless.

This latest version that you guys have up and running really does seem like the best one of the bunch. The problem is that a community that had thousands of members now has a couple dozen. So it doesn't really matter to anyone here anymore. You are the only one who has ever answered a question for anyone here so you're not the problem and not the one that everyone is pissed at. The Help Desk is garbage as well. Questions dont get answered and questions concerning the site being down and wondering when some resolution might come about being labeled as low priority isn't helpful either. Everyone who has ever visited this site would have been more than happy to stay with the old version of this site instead of having an arcade and the other bells and whistles. The problem isn't "the last few months of on going problems", it's been the last 1.5-2 years of horrible site reliability.

Going forward if you keep with Hostboard, I wish you the best of luck and hope that you get things going the way you've always planned.
