16+ hours of servers down. Hosts losing customers. Profits going down the drain. No answers from the company. What has this world come to?
That is rediculous.
Why the heck didn’t they just setup the new servers first, before taking the old ones offline?!?
There’s a Dilbert (I really like Dilbert…) that says something about this. The jist of it is that Dogbert proposes a plan for moving to new servers which involves shutting down the old ones first. Dilbert protests about that saying that the economic effects could be disasterous if the new system doesn’t work. Dogbert’s reply is, “I still get paid the same.”
Sorry, little OT there… 
My server just came back up after 17 hours! of being down. Thank God everything still works and it didn’t like fall out of the back of the truck or something. However, ping still loses one packet and I’m getting 114ms! round trip time. I hope they get it together soon.
