Nice try junior.
Perhaps you would be better served somewhere else.
Your choice of course.
If you choose to lie about unlimited resources, there is a definition for unlimited (perhaps you could look it up), then more power to you. I'm sure the clients that you lie to will not have an issue with it.


You can continue to embarrass yourself here by taking me on or you may want to choose to approach things in a different manner.
Your tactics will be called out on every legitimate forum until you choose to act in a professional way.

I would say that you are advertising a lie in your signature line. You say "AFFORDABLE" hosting. Can you guarantee that what you are selling is affordable? How can you back up a claim that something is affordable? What is affordable to you may not be affordable to someone else? Can all people afford your service? So if your company is affordable then you never have a declined credit card through your sign up page? WOW, with prices like yours we could all be rich. I didnt know of a get rich quick scheme until I started looking at your site. Let me post it again so we can drive some more folks over there and see it first hand. http://hampshirehosting.ca/

So you are not a reseller for Resellers Panel then?

I take it you are a reseller for resellers panel. It sounds like you know quite a bit about their business structure. I am sorry if things are not working out for you, or have not worked out for you. I dont understand why you are so eager to tear down companies while trying to elevate your own. Remember he that slings mud loses ground.

AN ILLEGAL SIGNATURE???????????????????????????

Blue said:
Yes. You did break forum signature rules. That is a fact and any mod here will verify that. Denying it now is pretty silly.
Those are the rules that you agreed to when you signed up. Those are the rules that you accepted and read.

You did not receive an infraction because I decided to give you a second fair chance. Not every rule breaking deserves an unfriendly and a harsh infraction, if we see the potential in members being active. Or would you rather be on a forum that would slap you with an infraction for every violation?

These are your words:

Even after you were asked to edit your signature and agreed to do so, you didn't do it. I had to go in and edit your signature personally to have it comply with the rules.

So you are on the admin team? I appreciate your mercy in allowing me to remain on the forum with my "SO CALLED ILLEGAL SIGNATURE." Can you please paste the rules here as they relate to signatures as I am willing to humbly accept and comply.

Yet you didn't.

Here is the rule that you agreed to:

USE OF SIGNATURES:
4.6 Font sizes above 2 are not allowed.

The courts don't give a crap about many sleazy schemes.

If you haven't looked at the reseller panel site then come back when you have.
ANY site offering unlimited resources is a lie and a scam. Period. That makes them questionable.
You can talk tone all you like but there is a huge difference between differing opinions and lying.

I have been saying this for the last six years and I will continue to say it.

I actually tried to look at their site, but couldn't because it was down. I haven't checked back.
As far as tone - it attributes to the culture of the forum - and I wasn't just referring to discussions of unlimited hosting.

Saying your customers receive a FREE SITE BUILDER after they pay for 12 months of service is questionable to me?

Telling your customers that they will receive a FREE MONTH OF HOSTING after they pay for 11 Months could be questionable also.

Telling everyone through your signature that you offer affordable web hosting is also questionable. Can you prove that all of your customers can afford your service????? Do you ever have a declined credit card? Do you ever have a customer that doesnt renew because they found someone else that was MORE AFFORDABLE?

I think I would clean around my own doorstep first.....then you can adequately clean around others door.

I think part of the problem is that we have to make the rules page a lot more readable (as in re-write them altogether). The rules usually set the tone you are referring to. However, that does not exempt anyone from not following what is currently in place. Majority of the rules we have are very straightforward. As far as the tone, I do not want to restrict anyone from giving their opinion, even if I do not agree with it. Sure, we've had some heated discussions in recent weeks, but they have only appeared because of certain understanding we have as members of the industry such as unlimited resources, unfair/unethical marketing tactics, etc.
