Server Orders Suspended
posted by immorta|

Yeap, we've had to do it again - even after slotting in 2 more additional machines!

Due to our servers nearing thier capacity, we have suspended new server orders.

Our aim is to provide high quality servers and we will not risk degrading the current clients server performance, so please do not ask if we can 'squeeze' you in - it's not fair to the current server owners.

Server orders will be re-opened as soon as we feel the capacity is low enough to allow new servers to be provisioned without effecting other users.

Ordering available!

Two brand spanking new servers are now online and ready to rock, so orders have been reopened!
