    When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

            Re: What happened?

            In short, there was an issue with the hosting so we needed to move to a new host. There were a few hiccups along the way that needed fixed, too.

            I think Blair is sending out an email to everyone tomorrow just to let everyone know. We were trying to figure out a way to email all the members to inform them what happened, but couldn't due to the fact that the hosting was in limbo land.

            I'm glad that everything's back up as I was going through some withdrawls, too!

              Re: outage

              Blair is going to be sending out an email to everyone, but in the meantime, here's a brief summary of what happened:

              Saturday the hosting company suspended the site and the site went down. Apparently the hosting plan had expired, however we weren't notified. On Monday when we spoke with the hosting company they told us what happened and it was decided to switch to a new hosting company.

              On Tuesday when it came time to transfer all the files to the new host, the backup of the database was missing (the only thing that was there was a backup from April - not good). So it took another day to get that sorted and then finally, at 1am last night, I managed to get the most recent backup and we were able to complete the transfer.

              I'm glad that everything is back to normal now, I was going through some serious Eurodrivers withdrawl, myself!

                          Yes everyone sorry for the lengthy delay, things did not go at all as I had planned, I have been stressing since Sunday!!

                          As Chris mentioned we have switched hosts with a few delays but we should be good to go now, but things maybe still redirecting for a bit.

                          Please feel free to post up any concerns or errors you experience as I want to have the site as trouble free as possible. And don't worry we are not going anywhere!!!!

                          I missed this place too!!!
