Hive: Musings about Crothian

[randomling]

www.hardhathosting.com - recommended by Raloc, who posts here. I just tried to set up my account and had a few minor issues with setting up payment (they have good anti-fraud and I think I misread some instructions) but that should be sorted out within a day or so, with any luck.

Moving is good. When we have an account I can start playing with PHPBB and getting things just the way I want them. We're paid up with the old hosts till March 5th.

I'm all steely and determined to get this sorted out and the new version of the boards up and running. It's odd, I don't get like this often!

Cold as usual, you mean?

Nah, I kinda like it in pretty-chilly London.

 

[Crothian]

Staying. Here.

Cool, Randomling! I'm glad that you've got that all sorted out. That way, your move to the arctic will be easier.

Well, y'know. Less traffic for one.

Okay. Have a look at this comparison:

After complaining about consistent and annoying problems with connection and speed to my current host, I am still waiting for a response a day and a half later.

After a minor problem signing up with my new host, I received a response within twenty minutes. The new account is now active.

Difference in service: vast.

Wow, the grass really is greener on the other side!
