Something happened? Where? When? How come I always miss the fun? I must have been around when it all went down and my half timers kicked in er something. Now what was I doing again.............

Let me make a long story very short: Even if I do get unbanned from LowEndTalk (which I honestly doubt at this point), you can rest safely knowing that I will not be back as a participating member of the community. It's not like I had a footprint there to begin with.
You're a joke.

Should have used A'HM AH PAHCKLE or maybe just DANIEL-FROM-MONCTON-NB
I'll make a coupon for all of their different aliases, although there will be no discounts, only price increases.

Anyway, so now we're supposed to believe there's some guy named Daniel from Moncton posing as a woman named Amy? I wonder why they chose that name out of all of the other female names available to them!

@MannDude can you please edit the title of this thread to be less misleading for the sake of future clients?

There's already two 'SEO poisoning' threads in the search engines from this forum so far, no need to add a third under the OP's pretenses.

Seems LET has unbanned Jonny, and then someone else decided that this was not what they wanted and proceeded to DDOS LET (not me of course).

Unsure why they unbanned him now.  Now is far after the ban did it's destruction to his "brand".  Like GVH, his account should have been shredded and he should have moved on to newer and cleaner things.

Will just be more classic gold when he gets to posting.  Oddly though he can't post his shared stuff unless he offers VPS also.

Yeah, shortly after LET opened a shared/reseller category they changed the rules to only allow those with VPS offers to post, to retain the focus on VPS somewhat, and no unlimited resource offers.

Imho, no problem with the individual in question getting another chance, as long as there won't be more unsustainable schemes going down in flames. The repeat customer db leaks/appropriations are bad enough as it is.

Slightly OT and not to sound like a shill, I just wanted to add that HN-Matt's been friendly and helpful on the few occasions I ticketed (good service coming up to a year this month), not to be confused with the other ... entity in the thread title.

Doesn't Jon Nguyen have a history of making that claim? Remember when he 'stepped down', and that new employee appeared on LET... only to later find they had the same IP address thanks to the honesty of Mpkossen who pointed it out? After some lying and digging a deeper hole, it was later revealed that the 'new person' was simply an alias of an existing one.

The lowend does have some great hosts who are doing things right, operate ethically and provide solid services. It's just hosts like this who run around and dirty up the industry and make it laughable to the rest of the VPS market that is doing it the most harm. The good lowend hosts should be happy of this news as it makes it less embarrassing to associate yourself with the lowend side of things when hosts like GVH are put in their place.

I remember a  topic where Jon claimed the problem was the cell company towers/system that shared the IPs with too many users.

Eit: Just realized I posted to a kind of old post. Ooops?

We are intentionally neco'digging this thread, no hard or foul.    It's Christmas today in Jonny Spaz's hood.

No worries. That ordeal you are referring to is when Jonny got caught in a lie, and said that two employees were from the same region and by coincidence had the same IP (or something), but that was of course before that was proven a lie.

Surprised to see LET have him back. Hopefully he's on a short leash.
