Retarded Hosting Facility

[Replica]

Well I wasn't about to switch anytime soon. I was more than anything pissed off at their RETARDED policy details. I mean it probably works 99% of the time but I can see it failing for very reasonable reasons.

And the hilarious catch is this. I place the order and put my billing info, right? So then they call you back to confirm. In my case they could not reach me. So then I logged into chat and gave back that same info, then my account was confirmed. Bear in mind they never actually spoke to me (voice).

Which means I could enter a stolen card, bill gate's home address, give a phone that I know for a fact will not be answered by anyone, then log into the admin and start chat session from there, then give them back the same bulls*** info and get my account validated. I fail to see how this provides any fraud prevention.

When I ask such questions, my supervisors get mad.

If the first contact number cannot be reached (disconnected, wrong number) the server gets unplugged right then. But yeah, you could beat us to the punch if you wanted to.

When I couldn't load the site, I got so mad I ended up crashing my car.... again!

J/K, it happened before the site went down.

How are you paying for the rack space?

Next step is to take the big plunge and buy your own server!!!

This is great but only if you can afford the dedicated connection.

I'm not sure what this site costs per month to host but I can bet its a hell of a lot less then a dedicated T1 connection.

I also provide hosting and I would have to do some fancy math to come up with a solution that this site already has and I am not sure I would/could be any cheaper.

We have the connection at the office, just not the bandwidth. As soon as the office moves to say, a 10 meg unmetered circuit, we will purchase a server of our own with the money we are currently paying to rackshack. But given the up front cost, we may need help from the members. This is why we may put up the donate button again.
