Well, isn't this cute.
CheapVPS.io / HostingTalk.io calls itself a web hosting community. Except in the case of owner and administrator Chad Waliser, who "likes to push the envelope", as he so accurately described himself on his Facebook page, he may have pushed it a little too far this time.
I have always enjoyed helping others gain as much attention in the pursuit of their dream, especially when they go out of their way to do it at any cost. In the case of Chad, a painter for TuffShed.com, the level of excitement in starting a hosting community has frozen his ability to think clearly and put in the actual work. But Chad, my hero, prevailed and found a path out of such a complicated situation ⏤ steal! Why the fudge would Chad spend his time recreating the wheel when the wheel is ready for the taking: HostingDiscussion! "I'll just take this one thing, ⏤ mumbled Chad, while "control C-ing and V-ing the application information for moderators from HostingDiscussion. "You know, this looks good, too. OK, maybe this one also... Ah, whatever, I'll just take everything." That also included the actual structure of the forum itself.
So in order to help Chad get CheapVPS.io / HostingTalk.io off the ground and bring as much attention as possible, I am starting this thread. While all of you get to educate yourself on this new community that is ready to go above and beyond, as a special bonus, I am hoping that the established authority position of HD with search engines will enable this thread to get to the very top of results for the community and its domain name, exponentially increasing its value in the process.
In the meantime, I applied for a moderator position. I hope I qualify.
@chadwaliser, you don't have to thank me. In fact, I probably won't even bother sending a letter to your domain registrar and hosting provider, as helping you with publicity gives me more joy. And in case you are thinking of sending me one, keep in mind that when you joined HD in 2018, you agreed to our terms, with this very specific item in it:
On second thought, I'll probably send that letter.
