    It comes down to this really any of the following are big red flags

    - Unlimited Space or Bandwidth (ever heard of an unlimited hard drive I sure haven't)
    - Life time accounts ($40 for life well do the math over 2+ years you'll see things do not add up. Their server costs them $150/month they'll start to lose money unless they continue to add these "life time" accounts.
    - Selling out of a forum no real order form
    - No support area the options are instant message the person on MSN/AIM or pm them on a forum.

    The majority of people offering hosting on this forum end up disappearing from here once they realize they cannot run something with out a business plan and thus just cancel their server and leave everyone high or dry. The other common one is like what happened with shoutserv is they end up all banned here.

    Unlimited Hoster is The Future of Hosting! We offer Unlimited Space and bandwidth, out server can take on unlimited and for disk space if we ever run out we'll just add on more hard drive. We offer support to main ways, support tickets and email. And we will be around for several years!


    You say no one can do this but we'll prove we can as Unlimited Hoster will be the first!

    The little girl that owns it wanted me to help pay 1,000$ for them to get a new server..

    She asked me this while my account was suspended.. They are retarded and they cant close down soon enough.

    Ime suprised that sentest dident make another reply.
    Then he would have 4 posts,lol,

    Sentest.
    We all know that shoutserv sux.
    And your review of them will hold no weight with your 3 posts.
    Post a review in a thread like this when you have some more Posts under your belt.
    Otherwise we just think you on there team.

    But you already shutdown once because you were doing bad. Now who's to say you won't do it again once you stop getting enough new life time accounts to cover the server costs.

    If you actually could offer unlimited space and bandwidth why the heck are all these hosts using their own machines. Get a master reseller from you for $50 one time rather than thousands of dollars in servers sounds like a great deal to me.

    Maybe we should move all our customers to you pay $50 one time opposed to thousands in machines. You'd have no problem hosting 500GB of space and another 3000GB of bandwidth. You can just add more hard drives and you have unlimited bandwidth already!

    We'll wait and see how long you last this time, maybe you'll do better than 5 months this time around. I'm sure not going to try to make a quick buck by using your services opposed to having my own infrastructure.
