Idologic for life as long as they don't mess up! :p

Telnap.com for life too because I know eric won't mess up! :p

I've learned one thing in terms of hosting in the past 6 years. It's that trying to grab a hosting plan because of price is a bad choice. I'm not saying that's always the case, but with me, each time it has been

All web hosts (even Idologic and Telnap) have problems, there is no "perfect web host" for everyone.

I just hope ServInt irons out these problems and makes some changes.

We'll see what you say when Idologic goes down...and sooner or later they will...


I'm not wishing anything wrong on them, but you gotta be realistic

dartworth - I totally agree with you.

Even HTTPme.COM which is one of my favorite web hosts has had downtime. Fortunately their web site and forums and forums are hosted offsite (by ServerMatrix.com where as customer accounts are at NAC.net) so they keep in constant communication with clients during the outage.

Well I'm glad things are back online. Hopefully it won't happen again, for a long long time.
