Well, after dealing with all of the issues that we have had with our current web server, I have done some research and decided that regardless of our current contract, we needed to find a better solution.

We purchased a new server contract with a different company tonight, and will be making plans to move the site as soon as possible. The new hosting company seems to really have their act together, and things should run much more smoothly once the changeover is complete.

We do not have an exact date and time picked yet to complete the switchover, however we will make sure that it is announced at least a few days in advance. Downtime should only be a few hours total while we move the databases from one server to another.

::EDIT::

We have decided to do the switchover this Thursday night, December 14th. The site will be shut down at approximately 5:30 PM, and should be back up within a few hours. If you don't have anything better to do, visit the NJFBOA aim chatroom for up-to-date info on how well the transfer is going.
