We’re having some issues with one of the MySQL servers, we may need to roll it back a few hours if we can’t get it back up.  This may affect some hosting accounts until it is back online.

We’re currently working as fast as possible to get new servers provisioned under our new platform for free hosting.  All new hosting accounts should be all set, all hosting accounts made prior to March 13th we are moving over as quickly as we can.

For those of you that do not know we’ve been testing different types of free hosting setups to find the one that is not only easy for management from our side but also the most reliable for you, the end user.  We’ve settled on a great setup and have been working with our new DC in getting things deployed as fast as they can build them.

It was very important for us to get the setup correct so we do not have to revisit this testing later down the road.  We also have so many users that we had to be 100% sure before making a final decision because of the costs involved and the not so high ROI for free hosting, mistakes were not an option.  With a decision made and a plan to move forward we have already spent thousands of dollars over the past week and had 10 new servers put online yesterday alone.

I will try to update this status site every few days with the progress of things going on.  The roller coaster ride of changes is almost done, we’re polishing up our new account panel, working on 3 new sites to better serve you and will be making an unheard of change in the free hosting industry to what we offer for free hosting.  Stay tuned and thank you for your patience, we wouldn’t be here without you.

All of our free hosting servers are under very heavy load from a recent increase in demand for accounts.

We are in the process of provisioning new hardware and getting it online for use by this evening (Friday). 

Chopin and Lotus will be the first two servers to be relieved.

The free servers have been scheduled to have their hardware updated at 9:15AM CST (-6GMT), this is about 9 hours from the time of this post.  They will come offline during this period, from past experience downtime will range from 20-40 minutes.  Please do not create support threads during this time.

Update 1: Boru, Absolut, and Cossacks and coming back online now.
