During peak hours (also when nexon kills mabi), the current server is having trouble with the database because there's just too much disk activity. So screw that, we're going SSD. I'll be sticking to the same hosting company, but using their "enterprise class" SSD storage array to host the VPS's disk file instead of the current normal storage.
Instead of moving the disk file, I'm starting up a new server and will reconfigure it and move nation onto it, then tell them to transfer nation's IP address to it. With that, nation will be down for a minimal amount of time. I'll also fix the time problem.
I'll be configuring the new server this weekend, but depending on when their tech support is available to transfer the IP addresses the move might not be until sometime during the week when I have enough time.

You might wanna try to enable independant wallclock and ntp like Odin was talking about on IRC awhile back too, to make sure the VPS doesn't get out of sync again.

This is in progress right now, I'm copying over all the static files (non-database) to the new server right now, so avoid changing your avatars or else you'll not have it in a day or 2 (and have to reupload it). Nothing else should be affected.
