Forplex.com - hacked ?

If realwd.com is his site this is the contact info for it

 

Over 40 Emails either sent and received have been exchanged with
HOSTGATOR

And on each correspondence that I have replied to HOSTGATOR I have been polite and asked for FORPLEX TO BE RESTORED

And yes I am still waiting !

 

I don't really understand what the problem is, the data is accessable right? Why can't they just move the site to a new hosting account?

If you have a recent full backup I would just move it to another host? I had a VPS set up in around 5 hours so I can't imagine what is taking so long for them to get your site back up.

 

I think he needs to move out to another host soon. as long downtime can turnaway submissions

 

I think if it was me, I would have found another host who is actually interested in the business.

 

Yes seriously, hostgator can clearly see you are a senior member of this forum with a solid reputation, you think he would bend-over backwards to get your site up as quickly as possible to earn some goodwill. 40 emails? That is nuts....

 

Pete, I highly recommend that you and any other owners switch your hosting to www.bluehost.com. These guys are awsome with 24 hour phone support. Security is great and you only need to pay something like $169 for 2 years of hosting. I like it because I do not have to worry about making another payment for 2 years. Trust me, it is worth the investment and will save you alot of headaches.

Quailty sites should always be hosted with a high quality hosting company.

 

With respect that is not CORRECT

realwd ............is on line
36towns ............is on line

bidforpositiondirs >>>>>>>>>>> is not online

Lets make this crystal clear

He is a HOSTGATOR RE-SELLER DEFAULTER

He does owe my company 400USD for work he has not delivered

And his actions are causing me
REAL TIME PROBLEMS AND REVENUE LOSS

 

Lol bluehost is another overselling host lets see :
Disk Storage (NOW MORE!) 300gig u gotta be kidding me right !!
Gigs of Site Transfer (NOW MORE!) 3 TB (hmm damn my server only gets about 2TB and costs me more than 200bucks damn am i getting ripped off or what )

British, if you got backup your site should be back quick. PM me will setup your account on my server. Few other dpers host there directories there, example : Jim Westergren , Marcus , Jessy , Imteaz . and most importantly my own sites are hosted there too !!
all it needs is a backup copy of your directory, i hope you have it, if not, than i am sorry to say hostgator is doing right!! Its not you who was directly hosted with them and they have all the right to deny access to your account till all overdue payments are done for account that apsivod had . Its a messy situation only hostgator and apsi, can sort out !!

 

I don't see a reason they shouldn't be able to bring the site back up in the next 10 minutes unless they don't have a way to restore backups which is bull don't understand why someone would make backups if they didn't know how to restore them. Pete if you have the money for a dedicated I would highly recommend mediatemple, 24/7 phone support, they will even install scripts for you if you don't know how or need help with bugs.

 

If a RE-SELLER DEFAULTS for any hosting company in the world, and the Hosting Company does not honor the right of the RE-SELLER'S CLIENT BASE to be re-stored to 100% FUNCTIONALITY

Then the whole viability and integrity of the PRIME HOST and HOST RE-SELLER process collapses both in respect to contractual elements and the trust elements

Further in the unlikely event of HOSTGATOR failing to restore to full functionality FORPLEX then the whole Hosting Re-Seller sector will have been irretrievably undermined

Which will in due process lead to the collapse of the HOST RE-SELLER business model in its present compiled, functionality and integrity mode

After all we FORPLEX are not asking for anything FREE we have PAID HOSTGATOR to restore FORPLEX ( with full functionality and 100% operative)

And HOSTGATOR have agreed unequivocally with no strings attached to provide that RESTORE SERVICE

We are waiting for HOSTGATOR to DELIVER THE RESTORE/TRANSFER SERVICE
This is taking time but we are exercising patience

 

Agreed I had a similar problem with a host who's data center was actually local, all though I wasn't patient and can't be when loosing money, took a drive a few miles away asked them nicely, and they told me they never even received any info regarding this space, and server logs it was scheduled for the trash can

 

Nope

Nope again.
Hosting company is only responsible for the client / resellers account and has no responsibility towards how that client runs their business. otherwise why not just host everything with the top fish in the food chain ?
If some reseller does not pay their bills on time and host suspends their site, they are not to be held responsible nor liable to listen to that reseller client base, cause that hosting company does not offer them their services, they offer it to the reseller not to those clients. And can answer to only the reseller who happens to be their client.
Its how the hosting business is run. Otherwise the hosting company than has to perform more tasks than what they get paid for !! .

Hostgator is doing the right thing, even if forplex is hosted on their server, and if hostgator went and restored forplex only because you paid them, they would than have obligation to restore any account on that resellers account.
I remember the debate that took place few months back when some vps company went bankrupt and lots of clients were not given their data by the server company, cause the vps/dedicated company owner owed them money for quite some time. i do not remember if any client got any data back even if they did, they had to pay for double or tripple the price.

So, have you paid hostgator the losses incurred by hostgator due to that client ? I doubt that, cause you are not responsible for their resellers actions.

Thats why folks host with a person not using a reseller account, go directly to the owner of a hosting company. Works the best !!

@jg123 Hostgator why would they give crap about whose account it is and how reputable they are, they would have done it even if it was Shawn Hogan himself.

 

this is just not going down my throat!

1. why will a guy with a good history suddenly con so many people, and for what? "money" !!! what happens when that money finishes, where does he go from there?

Can anyone call his home to find out where the heck he is? im sure some DPr would live in his state! perhaps he met with an accident, and instead of helping him.... wouldnt know how to /... we aer busy branding him.

2. if he is a hostgator resller, and has defauled then why is realwd still online

i respect your views and do not support anyone who goes missing w/o a trace, but shouldnt we find his where abouts before we start branding him otherwise?

M.

 

I rest my case without reference to any other than the involved parties

HOSTGATOR are processing the RESTORE/TRANSFER of FORPLEX

Thats all that is going on nothing more nothing less

It is taking time but they HOSTGATOR are restoring the hosting for FORPLEX
