    It took me three days to move all of my websites.

    I had a simple problem with SMTP.

    Jacob refused to correct it, cancelled my account without my permission AND now I have 72 hours to move all of my sites AGAIN!!

    Terrible!

    Most hosts will cancel without notifying if you do something against their policy or AUP/ToS.

    edit: Actually it looks like they already followed up with your complaint:

    forums.digitalpoint.com/showpost.php?p=11784462&postcount=11

    I'd toss you too for that. Abuse of staff is against most host's ToS.

    He was very selective in the part of the chat he posted!

    What was I supposed to say when he says my account was cancelled,thank you? I lost over 3 days of work to these fools.

    All because they would not fix their SMTP.

    I broke NO Terms OF Service. NONE. My "filehosting" site hosts NO files on server and I cleared it with them when i set up the account.

    Thank you theapparatus, also we never even deleted his files, his websites are still up and will remain up during the duration of his migration to a new host.. We've been more than leniant with Jesse, Steve, Stan, Bill, mike, or whatever your real name is considering your live chat names are always different. We've stretched our TOS many times, and you've broken many key points of our TOS.

    1) You hosted a file sharing website
    2) Your websites contain gambling, which is against our TOS's
    3) Abusive to staff


    3 Strikes, your out.

    1) I don't host a file sharing website.

    2)My "gambling site" is a squeeze page for 888.com.

    3) You cleared the so called "filehosting" website. Besides, this site uploads to rapidshare, etc, not to your server.

    4) I will be abusive to anyone who insults my intelligence and cost me a week of work.

    5) You never mentioned any of these things until after you refused to correct my SMTP issue!

    Jacob cleared this website in chat 2 days ago.

    Why don't you post that?

    When my account was cancelled, it was because i had a "bad attitude", now you all are looking for excuses to save face.

    Doesn't matter. Any time you say FU to an employee or volunteer of mine or to me, it ends right there. There's no need for it.

    And that's coming from someone who has a High Priestess of the American Church of Chaos as a lead volunteer. She's curse you down one forum thread and up another. Even she knows when it's acceptable and when it's not.

    I said FU after he canceled the account.

    Your point would apply if I said this before he canceled me. So what is your point?
