Pissed off at my forum host

[BorgmanJayce]

I went to check the messageboard that I run called "AsiaNami" and I found to my horror that it had been deleted... I went to post a complaint to the people at http://www.setbb.com and it turns out that they delete boards that they host for the most anal of reasons; especially if your board is in Turkish...

As for my messageboard, it turns out that mine got deleted due to inactivity and I find that to be insulting especially as they didn't give me a warning about it so I could pay to move it to another host and now it looks like I'll have to move it to a paying host and fork out $40 for the privilege of obtaining my database dump...

If you're looking to have a free messageboard, don't have it hosted with these guys as they're total utter wankers...

Lol. joeyteel's revenge?

 

[BorgmanJayce]

Who's joeyteels?

A lot of times free providers just suck. Although, they did cover themselves well in the TOS. It is sort of unfair that you have to pay to recover your databases though. Reminds me of the time that I asked my web host what steps I needed to take in getting my account deleted, and they just deleted it... Which wasn't what I wanted. Jerks.

Jedibmoney, Joeyteel...? That name sounds familiar. I'm thinking a certain anime message board.

Lol he's one of the mods at EZboard. he was an asshole to everyone.

 

[toranoko]

Ah. I don't remember him being mean to me. XD

BorgmanJayce, do you know which host you are moving to yet?

 

[CaptainB_Money]

you were a part of Megchans digimon board?...

 

[Black Ranger RX]

Ah yes, AsiaNami. I really wanted to post more often in that board but for some strange reason I didn't. I dunno why, but I guess I joined like loads and loads of boards, Henshin Justice being the board I spend the most time on.

I apologize, Borgman!! :bawling:

Yeah, AnimalMorpher.

 

[BorgmanJayce]

toranoko, I'm looking at hosting it via http://www.dstinternet.com as they offer unmetered space and bandwidth at a decent price.

As for the backup, it turns out that the fuckwits deleted the entire site along with the backup without even having the courtesy of letting me know!!!

So except for a cached version of the main page [which I can use to recreate the layout] and cached versions of certain threads via Google, the site has gone completely...

I'm looking at getting everything up and running next month hopefully when I get my webspace from these guys as I'd be subdividing it into webspace for different websites and forums including a spinoff forum for HF-Meganekko no Megami and if you can help me set up the new Asianami which I swear will rise up bigger and better from the ashes of the old one like a phoenix, I promise to make you a Mod!:anime:
