in thread Perl::Critic says don't modify $_ in list functions and other things

As an even further aside it's a bit surprising to find anyone offering 5.8.8 as part of a service today. I am not aware of any O/S still shipping that as standard.

That's what I was thinking...
I'm considering upgrading from shared hosting to VPS purely so I can upgrade from 5.16.003 to something a bit more modern. Being stuck with 5.8.8 seems a bit dire.

    Your own VPS is so cheap these days, and allows the freedom to leave the past where it belongs. I'm sure you'll only have a positive experience moving forwards with this.

      Leaving shared hosting behind is definitely happening soon - the only question is whether we are going to VPS or a dedicated server.
