    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    BAHAHAHAHA.  Ok, yeah, you do not know us at all then.  All of us at BuyVM over the years were pretty much completely self-taught, and Fran only seriously got worried whenever Anthony or I would be sober.

    WebHostingTalk Worst of the Hosting Industry

    Actually, we do have a corporate membership, have for some time.  It's attached to my account, not Fran's, as I kept up with our offers postings. For quite awhile, the extra posts brought in some decent traffic.  We haven't posted to WHT in some time (or anywhere, really, other than Fran waxing...

    I'd be more interested to know who they might have tried to acquire before picking up BL...

    Where exactly did Jonny come from?

    So, if VPSB slowly turned into a forum that had practically nothing but ad posts, there'd be no reason for you to stay.  Perhaps you wouldn't want this to happen, and might speak up about it.  Or perhaps it wouldn't bother you, and you'd just go elsewhere without comment.  That's your reaction...

    Where exactly did Jonny come from?

    I don't know about old-school, but calling a feature "newfangled" that's been common in forum software for well on a decade is certainly pretentious, if nothing else. So, if something bugs us, we shouldn't comment on it?  We shouldn't contribute suggestions and submit our opinions on how to...

    Where exactly did Jonny come from?

    Perhaps, but I was speaking from my own point of view on that one.  My own lack of posts recently has been directly related to how tired I was of seeing the same ol' drama stirred up in new threads every damn time I came to catch up on things.  I'm sure others feel the same.

    The Confederate battle flag.

    I have both Confederate and Soviet flags (along with my US service flag) hanging in my workshop.  I like having a mixed, rich heritage. Though if a rebel flag automatically makes you racist, and a Soviet flag makes you communist (all are equal/etc)... do they cancel each other out? :P

    Where exactly did Jonny come from?

    You forgot one. 4. Will more and more folks eventually tire of the same shit being drug back up, and slowly start migrating elsewhere to get away from it? I imagine more than a handful of us are close to considering it.

    The Confederate battle flag.

    Say what you will about the South.. but nobody retires and moves north.

    Portal Do Host Selects Limestone Networks as its Dedicated Hosting Provider

    It would be an efficient announcement if said hosting community had made it.  This is shameless, tactless advertising.

    Where exactly did Jonny come from?

    One of these days I will check the `New Content` list, not see a new/bumped post about that failed abortion and all of his drama, and have to double-check the URL bar to see what site I'm on. It would be quite nice.

    Portal Do Host Selects Limestone Networks as its Dedicated Hosting Provider

    Considering the lack of community involvement, I tend to agree with TLB on this one.  Just blatant advertising, not news.  I hope their clients get more professional responses from the support teams, as marketing clearly has the Fabozo bug.

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    I like it.  Any chance of the `Mark All Read` and `New Content` URLs being tossed into the footer as well, for those of us too lazy to scroll back to the top of a page after reading a thread? :3

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

    That's because it's not Chris at all - simply someone posting for him.  Grammatical acuity and speech patterns are nearly as helpful as fingerprints for identifying individuals;  or as is relevant here, identifying when someone is not who they claim to be.

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    What you saw was me "putting on the tie" and getting ready to deal with someone that decided our TOS didn't apply to them B)

    http://cboas.ru/img/mybodyisready.gif(NSFW) is more appropriate for us >_>

    The gun thread

    Yeesh, that's a tad bit ridiculous.  It's just a flat 150$/yr here.

    Gay marriage (finally) legalized in the US

    Actually, nevermind.  The last line of your last reply just hit me, and I realize now you already have a preconceived notion of everything the Confederate flag stands for in your mind.  We will merely be wasting each others time with discussion, as I highly doubt you're willing to realize you...

    Gay marriage (finally) legalized in the US

    Out of curiosity, where in the South?  I've spent a good bit of time now in SW Louisiana, and out of every individual I've met that sported the old confederate flag in one form or another, I can honestly say that not a single one was a bigot.  And exactly what mindset does having a Confederate...

    Gay marriage (finally) legalized in the US

    That's a little short sighted.  I hope your positing that the LGBT flag be done away with as well, by that logic.  After all, it's representing an ideal that seperates some folks from others.
