    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    Ahh customers would be mortified by nested doll style companies hanging like voting chads off of upstream reseller account. Things like "company" buys a reseller hosting plan with 50GB of storage but then is running ads all over for shared hosting themselves with allocations that up to 10x that...

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    I wonder why today was the special day to finally spring this public after so long...  Hmmmmm...

    Gay marriage (finally) legalized in the US

    The country boundary concept and the limitations, especially today being stuck in said place I fully understand.  Ask the Palestinians in Gaza about borders and being cooped up like chickens and made to jump and do whatever upon command (oh another hot button topic).  Same applies to residents...

    Gay marriage (finally) legalized in the US

    This isn't a government issue and never should have been.   It especially isn't a federal government bully issue of everyone.  This will get twisted like so many other Supreme Court rulings to shoe horn high insanity upon the individual states. If States as independent and own law sort of...

    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    I actually do agree with you on this point also.  Liability was a long time ago and avoiding suits due to mechanics and processes is pretty impressive based on the sheer volume of misdoings on WHT all these years. Corporate Member is a terrible title to cast upon paid account holders...

    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    Well the new owner Penton is way more about content.   Go to their site and see the emphasis on content and specifically optimizing content.   The place is a content farming operation with tons of analytical folks at desks crunching numbers.   When Penton finally addresses WHT assets, I have...

    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    A business has the legal and moral obligation to protect consumers.  Even one who claims to be a neutral publisher, non caring conduit or mall landlord. Those who don't eventually get federal government attention and beaten royally for running a fraud dumping ground. As-is, what WHT mainly is =...

    Hostress, LLC has acquired GreenValueHost v2 Clients and domain.

    Shinkle is a goner.  Shortest lived partner on the planet.   A guy needs to make a living, so not faulting him for the corporate gig he took. Profitability on GVH --- hard to divide JOnny's theatrics from the underlying financials.  I don't think GVH was ever predictable cash flow and like I...

    Free Blacklist Monitoring - Know right away if any of your IPs get blacklisted!

    Yeah think I asked prior, but to clarify.   Does the service support ranges like IPbase/23.... This would be good for lots of guys with own allocations / own ASN to get proactive on their ranges.

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    CVPS has the LEB offer of the day.  Probably fair game and asking for it for @MannDude to probe the BlueVM shituation over there.

    ARIN Stock Changes Feb 2014 - Down to 1.38

    I am wondering if ARIN is going to find another big chunk laying around to chop and dice like they did a week or two ago....

    So, let's clear the air...

    Oh Jonny was told this many many times. I doubt Tdale is burying the brand either.   It's sad to see it out there for sales inbound hopes.  The brand is entirely soiled and has been since??? Last fall at least. Dunno, but CC/related have fondness for busted up bad rep brands and keeping their...

    Hostress, LLC has acquired GreenValueHost v2 Clients and domain.

    Jumping on point - holding boxes but unpaid for.  This was huge issue during Jonny's time in charge.  Lots of boxes were ummm special priced boxes under what he or anyone else would get them at in the future. Holding those made sense, where you managed the cancellations tightly and got the box...

    Roundcube Next

    I am on the see saw about the funding. I get pelted daily with begathons from every direction. I think folks deserve to make a living doing what they are passionate about.  But the approach to funding seems rather broken and large with many projects.  I chuckle at the various funding sites on...

    A Small Orange(VPS Review)

    So problem here was LiteSpeed... Is LiteSpeed bundled / option in cPanel?  If in cPanel then blah on them. Most shops are "managed" but heavy around just what cPanel does.  Anything outside of the tools gets into murky area.

    Study on failure rates of SSDs

    I run SSDs on my workstation and on servers.  Obviously prefer them.  Haven't had one fail.  Only downside thus far is the higher cost and some oddness with the tech in earlier earlier years.
