The problems on Server One are due to be fixed as soon as possible, and SH appreciates the anger felt by its members, but it is not always possible for a miracle, so please bear with!
The point is, a miracle isn't needed. This keeps happenning, and it would be straight forward to sort a work around directing users to another server in the event of failure of server 1. Servers, modems, routers all fail from time to time, a business that provides a service should have contingency plans. Its good businiess practise. It is also good business practice to keep customers informed.
At present SH does none of these things. We are entering an economic downturn, people will look to use their money more efficently, and that means they will look for value for money. Service continuity and customer focus are fundamental issues in perceived value by customers.
The customers pay the bills. Not communicating and not having contingency plans is a threat to sh as a business.
