http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2008/03/godaddy-silence.html yet another reason to stay away from Godaddy.
Anyone who builds a site that lists over 100,000 cops with their names and badge numbers and asks for feedback is just asking for trouble. The only thing more risky would be Rate-A-Lawyer.com If you are going to do it then be smart enough to get your domain and hosting off shore.
True, but that is public information (varies by State I'm sure). Listing the residences, social security numbers, etc., of uniformed police officers is prohibited in my state. Other then that, nearly every public employee paid with tax dollars is free game. Godaddy is not a good host whatsoever. I like Godaddy for domain names, but if the domain appears controversial I'd use a different Registrar as well.
I think you can find that info on almost anyone if you want or hire someone to do it. I personaly would not want my name listed for doamin name i am sure you would be geting alot more tickets
The link kohashi posted here gave Go Daddy's reason why: Sounds more like a technical issue than a legal one, although one can make it as legal as legal can be anyway. Then again, Mr. Sesto has since moved the site.
I wonder if it truely was a bandwidth issue or if that is just the cover GD used? This is an interesting topic, thanks for posting it Kohashi.
As Greengambler said we're not sure if it's bandwidth or other reasons I hope it's bandwidth limits because i'm bored to see again GD acts as an arrogant childish registrar GD is known for their dominating rules he creates on case per case basis "Sesto refutes that last part, and says GoDaddy didn't contact him before cutting off the site" Check more issues for GD here : ( www.nodaddy.com )
godaddy changes their story, he didnt exceed bandwidth, they said he was using too many server resources. what an awful policy. I have done that more than a few times over the years on multiple hosts. The good ones, contact you, call, email, etc. Let you know what is going on, how to solve it right away.
I think that Godaddy is good. Use Godaddy all the time for getting my domains. Host somewhere else though.
I'm starting to dislike Godaddy too, but I don't know any other better domain sites, can anyone help me? And no I don't wanna buy from your site, I want a professional site.
http://namecheap.com/ http://domainsite.com/ although I'm not the biggest fan of DS their site loads a bit slow at times
I use their domain service. No problem so far. I like their Account Manager user interface - it is easy to follow and you have all your domains in one place.
