Changes coming to my farm (testnet nodes 219&234)

#1

Greetings,

I wanted to provide as much advance notice as possible since these nodes have active workloads, but my test net nodes (219 and 234) will be going offline at the end of the week.

I hope that community can understand that you should not take this me not wishing to continue providing space for testing or any change of dedication to the project. This is a change that has been forced by life outside of the grid. I am unsure if I will be able to bring back the farm at this point.

Moving forward node 5341 will remain on main net and will be the only node available in my farms. The farm has also had a significant reduction in network capacity down to a single gig connection.

I apologize for any inconvenience that moving these workloads will cause for deployers.

Sincerely,
Drew

Thanks for the clear communication Drew.

First: that is a big farm that has to go. Threefold grew a lot thanks to your dedication and testing.
Second: we’d need an official public board for such farmers/users announcements.

It’s on test net, so deployers should be “ready” for such changes.

A big thank you for all you’ve done with those 2 nodes!
