On Sat morning (5th Feb) at 1:30am GMT (Fri, 8:30pm EST) the T2W website will be moving from it's current shared server in telehouse, London (hosted by gradwell dot com) to a new dedicated server in Dallas, Texas (hosted by The Planet).
We estimate that the process will take approx 1hr 30mins. During which time members will be unable to access the site.
Once we've moved to the new server, everything should appear just the same as it does now - you probably won't even notice we've moved.
The decision to move to a dedicated server was taken because we wanted to continue to offer fast and uninterrupted access to the website. The success of the site has meant that our server hosting requirements have increased substantially. As a consequence recent stability and speed on the site has been an issue and we're grateful for your patience during this time. We're confident our new home will not only be able to meet our current requirements but will also give us plenty of room to grow in the future.
Although we've taken lots of time to prepare for the move, there's always a possibility we may have some wrinkles to iron out in the days following the move - so please bear with us, just in case!
