Planned System Outage - Advance Notice
By Eric Wilsoneric.wilson@planetoutinc.com -->
On Tuesday October 28th, we will be taking the our entire network down
to reconfigure our data center. This effort involves three of our sites:
gay.com, planetout.com and planetoutinc.com. This outage is a critical part of
our on-going work to ensure site stability and up-time. As this work involves
physically moving some of our servers, it will take several hours. In order to
avoid repeated outages next week, we will be coupling this move with a software
update to gay.com. In all, we expect the sites to be offline from 1:00am to
12:00pm Pacific Daylight Time. Thanks in advance, for your continued support and
patience.

Of course if you don't visit the blog you don't learn anything in advance about the outage.
I remain amazed that Eric Wilson still has a job.

WTH? Why didn't they just move the servers and crap around when they did the HUGE update to begin with? Why are they physically moving servers anyway? To make room for more ad servers? LMAO Gonna make another software update, huh? I bet it doesn't change anything. I think all the downtime is seriously just a way to make it look like they're giving a damn about anything by taking things offline.
Oh, and I can't verify it, but I think the site was down with technical difficulties again tonight, too, because there's virtually no one online now. Is this becoming a consistent thing around midnight-2a.m. EDT?
