    I'm with Pluto Hosting, and Ash talked me into it so that's why. I'm glad he did too as I'm really enjoying it.

    Did you get this fixed? I've been with Hostgator for about two weeks now and haven't had any problems.

    I was going to leave anyways. I was on a friend's reseller (I paid for parts of the price) and he wasn't going to pay afterwards.

    Either way, Litespeed on HH kicks Apache's ass on HG.

    you are thinking of another VPS provider I used to use, VPS Guys and then later CertoHost. Won't be going back to either of those any time soon.

    Oh, I see. So, everything is sorted now?

    I know Lightspeed is pretty fast.

    That was it. I knew there was one that you guys, I think even when you were on 2 Host U, that you were having some serious issues with, that not only affected you guys, but also affected us clients in some shape or form as well.

    He actually got hired IRL at some host, so he's apparently doing something there. I don't know anything after that.

    Hostgator wont give you problems until you grow, they are known to be trigger happy, exceed your limits many times and then you will see you got suspended, I see it happen all the time.

    Yea, its better if they are avoided... they look trust worthy, probably thats why most people buy from them.

    Believe it or not AdminBB was first on them. They are horrible. Once your site gets big, it will get very slow... they have crappy servers.
