| Shockwave | 14-10-2009 21:31 | | Slams: 2116 | Good luck, I love your website btw.
|
| | Slams: 1296 | Sure, I'll give it a go. Starting from scratch though and time is always scarce, but it would be great fun I think. |
| Stormbringer | 13-10-2009 11:58 | | Slams: 5896 | I just got in touch with Ray Norrish on FB! maybe you know him as he was responsible for the music of several Amiga games. He's a member here now as well, so thank you Ray for joining!
Ray also has a website where he remade reveral Amiga intros/demos:

| Shockwave | 09-10-2009 15:34 | | Slams: 2116 | It's most probably a corrupt cookie left over from when the site was on the old host, deleting the old cookies should fix it.
|
| Stormbringer | 09-10-2009 14:50 | | Slams: 5896 | @musashi9: ironically I have this issue with Flashtro 
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
| musashi9 | 09-10-2009 14:14 | | Slams: 125 | I had the same problem when the site came back online. I had to tell FF to allow cookies from this site again to get it to work |
| hellsangel | 09-10-2009 11:45 | | Slams: 5393 | no more problem today. strange. tested with Google Chrome, Firefox, IE, K-Meleon...
|
| Dr.Death / Dawn | 09-10-2009 11:37 | | Slams: 703 | I am using Firefox i am haveing no problems. |
| Stormbringer | 09-10-2009 10:49 | | Slams: 5896 | @hellsangel: I do not experience this bug.. I'm using GoogleChrome and works fine with the login
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
| hellsangel | 08-10-2009 21:34 | | Slams: 5393 | is it a bug ? I can't stay connected. I need to login each time (tested with severals browsers)
|
| bikerboy | 07-10-2009 14:32 | | Slams: 215 | | so I invite you to take your environmentally friendly hosting, stick it on the end of a (green) pole and shove it so far up your (_y_)hole that you can clean your teeth with it |
rofl ! priceless |
| Shockwave | 24-09-2009 09:02 | | Slams: 2116 | It's just posted so that people who google these bastards can see what they are really like 
|
| | Slams: 1345 | Lovely letter Shockwave Really nails it like Stormbringer so nicely said it Back then, i was like "Nooooooooo" but now after reading your letter, then i can "only" laugh about how they must feel when they read that
A++++ for the letter (no it's not about trainer options ) |
| Dr.Death / Dawn | 21-09-2009 23:54 | | Slams: 703 | Nice letter m8 i hope nobody else who reads your letter never uses the tossers...
And thanx to Tetra for the backups or i do think would would of lost both yours & stormbringers sites for good. |
| Shockwave | 21-09-2009 08:31 | | Slams: 2116 | If it wasn't for the backups that Tetra maintained for this site, it would still be offline.
We are now with a host that backs everything up every day automatically and it's just a few button clicks in cpanel to restore the site to any point in time over the last two weeks.
|
| Stormbringer | 20-09-2009 20:48 | | Slams: 5896 | So well written!! I love it. English as a language is unbeatable to insult people in the most polite manner. If your open letter was not relating the bare truth, I'd simply laugh while reading it... but actually it was quite sad when all this happened.

| Shockwave | 20-09-2009 18:55 | | Slams: 2116 | To Hostpapa With Love:
RE: www.nicksimpsonx.com
Dear Hostpapa,
I really loved the idea of your brand, the idea to let Papa take care of everything, the Green energy, the 99% uptime you promised, the unlimited storage space, unlimited databases. I was so impressed with all these marvellous things that you offered me that I was happy to hand over my money and also to trust you with my precious websites which had taken several years to build up.
Sure, they were not commercial websites, they were merely communities that were free of charge for everyone where new programmers could get a helping hand, I even told the members of the sites how great, helpful, fast and reliable our spiffy new green hosting was and how the lag we had experienced before on our old server was a thing of the past.
Everyone was so grateful towards you, nobody even seemed to mind when SQL crashed so often on your site, I did point this out to you of course and you told me that it was my scripts that were maxing out 15 simultanious connections, I wondered how difficult that must be to do and I estimated that I'd probably need several hundred people browsing my forums at once to cause the problem but Papa knows best of course and who knows, maybe my complete memberlist logged on to the site whenever I turned my back on it.
Even recently after all the downtime some of my members told me to give you a last chance and I did. That was before someone on the same server as me allegedly ran a script which went haywire and completely wiped out my websites.
I would like to congratulate you on the timely manner that you answered my politely worded support tickets, it was perfectly reasonable of you to make me wait 3 days for a response to such trifling requests as "my site is offline and I can't access anything, cpanel is showing no files", why would I be concerned anyway, my communities only took years to establish, it speaks volumes of your service that the directory structure was wiped out and I could not even put up a place holder page to reassure my visitors.. In fact, several weeks later the directory structure is still wiped out.
Your online chat needs a mention too, I've been on this planet for 37 years and I have never met such an inept bunch of technicians and I just wonder if there is actually a question that they know the right answer to. They fobbed me off at every opportunity, as did the feckless idiot that I spoke to on the phone.
You should be commended that at no point has anyone in your organisation offered an apology for the dataloss, nobody has offered me any help.
So, I am left to sum things up, I know that a refund is out of the question, I have google and I've read how you treat your customers so I will tell you what you have already been told no doubt a few thousand times by your customers.
Your service is terrible, your tech support people are stupid and do not care, you couldn't care less about your customers data, your servers are oversold, slow and uptime I would say is less than 90% (and you cant argue with this point because it is my true experience).
Thankfully I have taken my business elsewhere now so I invite you to take your environmentally friendly hosting, stick it on the end of a (green) pole and shove it so far up your asshole that you can clean your teeth with it.
You can take this as a request to cancel my plan (www.nicksimpsonx.com) and take this as an assurance that myself and at least some of the 1200 members of my two communities have a great opinion of your utterly unprofessional rabble and will be writing appropriate reviews to warn other unsuspectiong people away from you.
Yours Sincerely,
Nick Simpson |
