Server ending in 58 is currently back online. Server ending in 138 is still being worked on. –Lexxi

As of 4/25/2024 @ 1:11AM EST / 10:11PM SLT

It is a networking issue that the datacenter wasn’t expecting. They have their technicians working hard to get the issue resolved and the server back online. They will let me know when it has been fixed. I cannot stay awake any longer as it is 1AM in the morning for me, I need to get some sleep. Hopefully by the time I wake up or when I wake up to go pee (it happens lol), the servers will be back online. I will update you as soon as I wake up whether or not there are any further details. Please, if anyone asks via SL, FB, Discord, etc, refer them to this post. This site is NOT on our servers and is hosted elsewhere for this exact reason – so I can communicate with everyone  even when servers are down. As you can obviously see, that it is a bright idea to do so.

I will, again, update you soon as I wake up. I appreciate everyone being so understanding and GREATLY beyond words appreciate your patience.

Celebrating 16 years (early lol)!!

Important Note: Please follow the instructions to redeem. No refunds will be given, no exceptions.

We are celebrating our 16th birthday here at Hostcrate a whole month early. We will be officially 16 years old come May 4th, 2024. This is also my chihuahua’s, Jazzie, 14th birthday (will be celebrating her bday too with a doggie cake & treats)! The following sales will be available through May 5th, 2024. Full transparency: I am running these specials to be able to celebrate this milestone in RL by taking my incredibly supportive husband out to a nice dinner & a movie. He has been there to help me get through some tough struggles through these last 16 years….the migrations, the sudden force of having to leave not one but two datacenters, the list goes on. Without YOU AND HIM, Hostcrate wouldn’t be here. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the last 16 years. You guys really do mean so much to me, I love you all!

Wanna make this a BOGO offer AND make a difference in the world? Simply donate L$1,500 /$6 USD to our RFL kiosk. Please only do this once you are asked to so I can keep track properly. No refunds, no exceptions (can’t give refunds because the funds go straight to the RFL account not to me).

2: Your hard limit will be tripled, up to 6 years total.

Example: You donate L$1,500 to our RFL kiosk at our office. You renew at the vendor I set out up to 3 times so you’ll get 3 years on us as the BOGO and you hit the total hard limit of 6 years total while making a difference raising funds for RFL in the process. YAY!

If you have any questions, etc please reach out to me directly LustyLexxi Larimore.
