[usp] New webhost for UnrealSP.org

Following an incredible performance fallout and complete loss of trust with our previous webhost Arvixe.com, we've now moved to a new company: NixiHost. It might take a while for all DNS servers across the world to propagate the change, but the domain move should be completed. The webhost move was intended to coincide with the website reboot, however Arvixe's performance has forced my hand earlier.

All users are advised to purge their UnrealSP.org cookies and browser cache. The forum session cache has been emptied, meaning that most of you will have to re-login.

Note: 1-2 days of forum posts may have been lost, but I don't think anybody managed to post anything important in that buggy period, anyway...

Please comment on the new server's performance below. I'm very interested in seeing how the move pans out, and if performance improves.

Hi ividyon,

Happy to see everything's back in working order! On my side, performance is great, better than before actually! All is smooth :)

Cheers!

Sorry, I think arvixe was my recommendation. I've been with them a long time but never on the servers USP has.

Good, hopefully that'll be the last of those errors. It's very off-putting when the site keeps crapping out.

I had a Generic Error for a few days, got worried quite a bit that a similar problem appeared then the one at ut99.org. Happy to see it fixed ;) (and no, I didn't need to re-login)

The announcement of the final version of USB.u (Unreal Buddy System) has been lost :/ (5th May)

Performance was always good for me, but it this means that we'll get no more of the random "Unable to Connect" things, then I'm happy :D

Nice to see you're back online. The past few days it was all MySQL errors. (A connection limit of 1, and I was not the 1 allowed in ;-))

It's working well so far, maybe even better than before. Here's to hoping it stays that way. :tup:

One improvement so far for me is the loading times between pages and topic change, I usually had 2-3 minute load time. I can speak too soon, we'll see. No problem at all so far tho.
