I think MT is hosting the main site only and racknine hosts the forum.

now that I think of it, MT is hosting just the main site because only the main site was down for awhile while the switch was made. I don’t recall the forums ever going down during the switch.

Kirupa was having trouble switching the databases over to the MT site. Racknine heard about MTs offer and RACKNINE offered Kirupa the same deal. Originally everything was to be hosted on MT, but now only the main site is on MT and the Forums are hosted (for free) by Racknine.

Yeah, MT hosts the main site while the forums are hosted by racknine. You didn’t notice any delay electrongeek because the forums were on racknine originally to begin with =)

Cheers!
