Redoing scratch server, and saving everything on it at the same time

I think that the scratch server needs to be re-done. The server is outdated, and even though I don't have much evidence, I still have some.

But, if scratch did redo the server, then  everything saved on it would just delete. So if its possible, why dosen't scratch redo the server and save all the current work on it?

Re: Redoing scratch server, and saving everything on it at the same time

the only way it could be possible is by transferring the whole scratch website to a different server, which would take a while and make the server down for a while. Then re-do the server or update it or whatever, then move scratch back which would take a while again. too costly and time consuming.

Scratch could just move it to a new server, and keep it there.

It's not as simple as you think. They can't just move everything to a new server.  hmm

Re: Redoing scratch server, and saving everything on it at the same time

It'd be nice to redo the Scratch server; it would be a lot nicer. But as -db- and ihaveamac have already stated, it isn't so easy. But it would be nice.
