We did it

The site is now running live on BlueBoxGroup servers, as of yesterday morning. Mega kudos to Jesse and Stephen, and Ry and Franc from our team. It could not have gone more perfectly.
We've always had the ambition of being a "google-fast" site. From what I've seen today, we may have actually done it. Time will tell.
And we still have more improvements to make -- so we have no more of those occasional slowdowns that bum everyone out. And still a long list of little fixes, to keep this place feeling great. Very soon to come.
So for now, all I can say is: enjoy... and tell your friends, especially those that hated the slow site in the past, see if they'll give us another try. And did I say enjoy? Hopefully that happens :)

HOORAY!!!
Thanks, Chris, Ryan and Franc!
Chris, man. Again, that transition was simply heroic. HUGE kudos to each of you; I can't tell you how impressed I am.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you. And just in time for a big celebration tomorrow, yes? :)
It's difficult to imagine how much expertise, love, and time goes into keeping this site up and community running. Most members simply have no concept. And then special projects like this come along, and I am again blown away. How can I possibly thank you for the monumental enrichment of my life this community brings, due to you-all's efforts !!?
Just know that I am humbly grateful, in awe, and sending you all the most loving and supportive vibes that your own lives be blessed beyond measure.
A round of hugs,
OM Bastet
I couldn't have said it better than the dear ones above. And Chris, Jesse and Stephen, Ry and Franc–WOW! and Thank you! And also to Mathew who is staying in touch with us as the glitches iron out.
I hope that more community members get to know about this.
Thanks friends :)
