ok rather then shutting down im moving the site to a new server

there may be some outages between now + dec 5th 2025. hopefully not tho

the site will soon be hosted either in Denmark, or Philadelpha PA the great state of pennsylvania not that it matters

thank you to GODADDY for providing me with 10 years+ of hosting and price gouging me since covid. lol but by switching servers ill be saving myself around 440$ CDN so. i better get'er'done

if anyone wishes to donate to help pay for the webhosting anything helps! even 1$
http://paypal.me/oldschooldaw you can disregard teh msg about godaddy holding me hostage that was dealth with last time a few years ago, thanks again to that miracle donor who donated the 250$ all in one go, that was incredible, thank you for your generous support! there is no emergency situation now, my cost will be about 150$ instaead of 240$ would be nice to get half of the 150$ donated but yea, not a deal breaker if i dont. a good size donation from a user would be 5$  thanks guys
