Downtime

In case you didn’t notice, the site was down from Monday until last night. Our web host “turned it off” because too many people were trying to access it, so I suppose we are outgrowing this server. Kind of hard to believe, since all PokeBeach is right now is a dignified news page with card scans. Since the site was down, I took the opportunity to upgrade the backend, but then they brought us back online right in the middle of it all. I had to block everyone but me from viewing the site in the process, which is what that “Forbidden” message was. The upgrade failed despite the efforts of even the developer of the software I am using, so the downtime was a little pointless. Nothing can just ever work out right, can it?

I’m not sure what’s going to happen in the near future with the hosting, but I’ll keep you all updated (unless the site goes down again, in which case you can play guessing games as to what’s happening). :)
