Changes at Angry Bear
Many of you have noticed unwanted occurrences at Angry Bear. We have had four occurrences of down time. I am not sure why this is happening. Each time, Joel and I have alerted our present Server staff without being demanding or obnoxious. The latter serves no purpose. We need their help while we transition to a new Server site. The present Server company is moving in a different direction and does not wish to service this Blog Site (business decision) as well as others.
We will also be taking on a new virus protection which should eliminate popups from our site if they existed. However, if you do not have antivirus protection; you may still be prone to popups and other virus. It is important for you to have similar protection also.
I had a long talk with Investing Channels on ads on Angry Bear. They do not do popups and neither will ads be in the center of the site blocking ppsts. . You should see ads on the sides, top. or bottom of Angry Bear. The ads will be primarily business, economics, and investment related. These ads pay for our server with a bit left over for other things. They are nice people and strive to help us.
We (I) did not solicit a server change. It is their desire to leave Blogging sites. So we move on.
Best . . .
Angry Bear.

Good luck, sometimes things just happen

We will be fine! I am just letting you all know in case we disappear for an hour or so.
I am huge fan of the blog. I’m very hands on IT professional, early retired.
LMK if i can help you with the Server transition. I’ve been doing these things for 20+ years.

I believe we are all setup with WP on Kinsta. We had CloudFlare implemented for virus and spam. If you wish to chat with me do run75441 at the same address as yours. It is always good to have another source of info with an ability.
