For a while I was using LCR hosting and since they went down he moved me over to Ovica's servers. Ovica has since been more reliable and faster than my old hosting service, and LCR was really good. Ovica has a hosting plan of 5000mb and 100GB bandwidth a month for $60 a year. You can't beat that.

I've asked them how much it would cost to upgrade to 200 or 300 GB bandwidth ... pending an answer still. I really think you should consider moving SEN here.

I did a bit of reasearch, and they seem to have overall good reviews. It's your call IP.

ADDITION:
I also might add, I find myself frequently repairing the mysql databases when I shouldn't have to.

Lately has been pretty poo.gif ty with the new box... I think I'll stick to it for now. Tyler is awesome.

$60 for that much bandwidth/space a YEAR seems pretty damn cheap. Intuition says not to trust it.

They got a 30 day trial it appears.

Plus Chu was apparently with them for a while tongue.gif

I've been with them for over 2 months now.

Repairing the SQL database for the 5th time today is certainly justification for us staying with our current host.

Apparently two forums went down temporarely. Could we change hosts soon?

And if it doesn't work out, we all simultaneously tell Chu how dumb he is. But this random post/forum/etc. disappearance is bad. What if a map was to suddenly disappear from the dldb? Or a member's info? If its the wrong member, they could start pointing the fingers saying that it was done on purpose because no one likes them and such words.

I'm repairing the database several times a day. Theres something SERIOUSLY wrong.

Now I know which host my site is on lol.
It's been pretty good from all I can see it's been fast, reliable and I don't think myself or anyone has seen my portion of the hosting go down once.

With SEN it's fast, but not as reliable. Frequently I'm making a post and one time I was suspending someone when SEN suddenly went down.

Yeah, it kept dying the one time I actually decided to approve files for the DLDB.

Constant server problems...

Worked on this all night, I think it might be resolved now.  Loads have been good all morning, waiting for peak activity.

So far, I haven't had to repair the database today, which is already a good sign.

Does the screen randomly blink for anyone else? I can't get the fast reply to work either, and random scripting errors show up. It goes away too fast for me to take a SS though.

Try clearing your cache.
