Jamroom Hosting - looking for a few beta testers
Jamroom Hosting
Thanks so much for all this input, friends.
One thing to know however is that I (happily) have not paid Arvixe for any 1 or 2 year period- I;m currently on their cheap $10/month shared hosting plan. So hopefully that will give me better exit options once I have my JR hosted site all up and running well.

Well, since arvixe 'gave' me my 'free' domain choice (I didn't know any better when i set up with arvixe), I guess they have it registered, so it looks like I will have to do the following:
"If you have your domain name WITH the hosting company the scenario isnt as much fun, it goes:
* you choose a new host and upload your site there
* you ask the hosting company politely to please send them your domain because you no longer want to use their services
* you wait patently for them to help you (who is no longer a customer)"
But I'll get on that once the dust settles and my JR server has my site and it's working well.
Meanwhile....
My site transfer has started! woo-HOOOO! :D

Ok so good! on the copying but not yet deleting what's on the arvixe server.
And ok so when I click the button tomorrow, when it asks for a domain I will punch in the domain that I am currently using for my arvixe site (mysite.com)...and then I'll see how far i get after that before I need help. Never done this before.
As long as in the end I can have my site on the same mysite.com domain as my current arvixe site is on. and people will just be clicking to mysite.com and will get right there, to the site on the JR server (without seeing "jamroomhosting" in the URL.
Thanks.
Exciting times!
new ningja update issue

SE, Clay has been asking for this and I agree- we do need to know what templates of .css files gets changed in the updates. Otherwise, checking through every tweak we've ever done of every template (especially in our customized skins) is a monumental task. That's why I currently have a small dread of every Ningja skin update.

Right now I have my site on arvixe on the domain they give out for free with my account there. The thing is, that's the domain name that I will want for my final live JR site. I know I have to call them about whether I can just continue paying them for keeping the domain registered...but:
1) will I need to set up a temporary domain on your server to get the new hosting transfer accomplished quickly? (sorry, not sure how this works) and
2) when you move my site content to your server, will a complete copy of my content still remain on the arvixe server as well, until i shut down that account?

Paul, can you clarify what support package you are meaning? I know you guys have different levels of support you offer. Thanks!
IDs mixed up...?
Ning To Jamroom
Just to say this is still happening for me. When I create a new discussion in a Group that someone else created, it show my avatar but with the group creator name and profile attached to me, and indicates my discussion was created by the person who created the group, not by me. But if i then make a POST to that same discussion, my ID for that new post shows correctly. See the screenshot above. This would cause some pretty big freakouts for members. Is anyone else seeing this happen?

I personally see Jamroom site/software support as being a separate thing as server hosting support. I know I'll always need server/hosting support (otherwise I wouldn't be wanting a managed server), but hopefully I will only need intense "Jamroom support" for a limited time- as I get better with using/knowing the platform and once I have my site set up more completely, I may be able to switch to just asking questions here on the support forum when something comes up that I need help with. Right now I'm paying for JR support as well because I need a LOT of help at this stage of having my site half finished. I wouldn't necessarily want to pay extra for a bundled-in support package that I may not need six months from now. Of course if it were thrown in free I wouldn't object- lol. Just my own viewpoint.
