GoDaddy are currently upgrading their entire SQL setup... The new version is a LOT stricter!! Apologies if Socoder goes down due to my shitty coding!! Just had my entire Archive offline for a good hour or so!!

Eurghh, as a web developer, I hate it when a sudden upgrade happens without warning. I was with Hostgator for about 6 years but left them for that very reason. Well, that and their server became insanely unrealiable. I'm still not looking forward to when PHP 6 comes out mind.

Can't complain, they gave me plenty of warning. They sent out an email in Mid-Feb saying "The upgrades should be done by about December 2013".. Then another email a few minutes later apologising for their inability to travel through time!

In that email, we erroneously mentioned the upgrade happening on Dec. 3, 2013. Because that's in the past and we're unfortunately tethered to the "forward" movement of the fourth dimension, we obviously included the wrong date.


teehee!

But, yeah, I've definitely been forewarned, I just wasn't expecting the new version to be "that" strict.. Grrr..
I've spent a few hours, today, trying to track down possible bugs, but ... well.. you never know!! Socoder's sourcecode is ultimate chaos!

At least you are doing better than that old web site called EONS
Many claim they went down due to having their web site held for ransom meaning; the providers raised the rate, pulled the plug on their site and did not let them get their content off the servers.

All servers have their good and bad points.
In GoDaddy's case, good is cheap!!!

In the case of what happened to Eons it was shocking and users still cannot believe the move.
