Server Upgrade - Possible Downtime

We will be upgrading our web and SQL servers to virtual private servers today, and so we might experience a bit of downtime as the transfer happens. At this point in time, we have no idea how long that will be, but if you don't want interruption of service for the programs, load them up now in case you can't login later in the day. If the downtime is long, we'll be sure to compensate you guys one way or another.

We'll try and update the site with more info as it comes.

Am i aloud to send you emails and complain about the sites downtime until it comes back-online?

I'm pretty excited for our new servers to be set up. We just got word that the web server has been set up, but the MySQL server is still pending. Also, we haven't migrated our data yet.

The new server would make the site faster and less 404 pages? or is there more that a new server can do?

What else did you expect from it?
Umm, from irc - it sounds like so far, the server will make the site faster and less error 500 pages. Also, it can process more data and at a faster rate, so it sounds like a lot of the pricing itself (the item) is going to be a lot more accurate. I think SL said right now, 3 out of 4 (I think? I can't recall the actual numbers) of the pricing goes through to the database. This would mean more efficient selling for everybody rather then having items sit in your shop til they disintegrate.
