New WebHostingTalk Site!

[QuadraNet_Adam]

After many years on the same design, WHT is now preparing itself for a new site:

Im looking forward to a new design

I wonder if they are going to upgrade to vB4 at this time or on to a different software.

Yes, it will be VB4. You can actually already see the VB4 default favicon on the site already.

Defo VB4, they have a subdomain http://vb4.webhostingtalk.com/

I think it will kill them and then people will end up going here more.

New WebHostingTalk Site!

The site has been down for a few hours so for the benefit of anyone who paid for a corporate membership and is being denied their right to signature spam during this extended downtime,  I'm requesting that MannDude change the title of this thread from "New WebHostingTalk Site!"  to something more accurate like "WHT Scammers! Took The Corporate Membership Money, No Give Service! Opened PayPal Dispute! Avoid !!!! Suggest Me New Forum!"

We need to make the obligatory "WHT is a Scam - Down for 10 hours and not responding to calls/tickets" thread when they come back up

Signature withdrawals in progress.

Don't get your hopes up. I saw a screenshot posted by @Steven F and there's nothing "new" about the design, really.

Please check the offers section.

WHT is massive and supposedly has a lot of custom codework in place. Upgrading to VB4 is going to be a fun task for the new owners.

They ironed out what should be most of the issues, but there are still a few left.

They claim they will just work which is why they won't move to a better system.

Yeah I saw that screenshot. It's pretty much the same as FreeWHT, the same old design that's been there for like 10 years.

As much as the Corp membership is, you'd think they'd have a new look by now :\

I don't think the new corporate membership badges are big enough....

 

[mojeda]

Looks like it's back up.

They wanted Stevie Wonder to see it . Overall I'm personally not impressed, nothing new other than going from rock solid vb3 to vb4. I'm sure DragonByte will love the traffic from WHT footer.

 

[MannDude]

I don't know how I feel about the change. I'm sure in a week I'll be used to it as will others.

EDIT: Their search feature is broken.

 

[Syntrel]

Doesn't look that much different to me...

 

[KwiceroLTD]

Looks like it's back up.

we have such a good design

I much like the broken no color version over the actual version. Who's with me?



Anyone want to inform them to update all links to use HTTPS so firefox doesn't go ape shit and block it?
