Immediately had a problem adding domains, but some dude named ketan on their live support chat thing took care of it. Problem solved in less and 5 minutes. Apparently I needed a control panel update already lol.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.

Can't really do anything 'till my 2 domains I have pointing to the account finally "propagate" or w/e... Taking long as hell. Might be monikers fault and not webairs for all I know, i'm just a noob.
Control panel kind of sucks for me compared to direct admin, which is what I'm most comfortable with.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.

I payed the full whopping $19.95 for their cheapest virtual plan... lol
This is just something I started out of boredom. If they hook my account up because they know I'm testing them then cool, I'll use all the extra benefits with no problem.
I'm probably just going to put up a whole bunch of autoblogs for a while to test their downtime everyone complains about. If it goes good then i'll move some sites I've been wanting to move away from hosthead over to my webair account. Hosthead is great and they're support is awesome, but I just wanted to be able to have more than 1 dedicated ip on a cheap virtual account. Hosthead doesn't have that and the sites I have with them don't need a dedicated server.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.

Funny that I didn't move my sites to webair yet, but their currently down on hosthead, and so is hosthead.com
My test domains are up on webair.

I'm having no problems with webairs virtuals at all. Ok, they're down sometimes but not that as much as it would bug me. Support is fast and friendly. I still like hosthead better for virtuals, but they are much more expensive.I like cookies.Comment

Maybe I should've posted a thread... I signed up for Webair and have been waiting over 24 hours for a peep from my support guy. He's not on ICQ, not on aim, not responding to e-mails. I'd really like some help so I can actually use the hosting I just bought, but I guess it's just whenever they feel like acknowledging me?Give me money & buy my links here, damn it!Comment

I haven't heard back from my assigned support guy either, and he hasn't even signed on to icq ever since I opened the account. Luckily the 24/7 live support is there, and they take care of anything I need, FAST!Maybe I should've posted a thread...

I gotta admit, so far so good with webair's cheapest virtual account. Still in the process of figuring out exactly what I want to do with it, I keep changing my mind.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.

i never kiss anyones ass and i don't know the webair crew or owners in any way , never met them never contacted them.
i have had a small virtual account with them for years and never had a problem..
i built my own custom script that checks for uptime 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. they are one of the most steady virtual accounts i have used , and i have used or use almost every one of the top gfy hostshatisblack at yahoo.comComment

Well webair still hasn't gone down for me but my sites with hosthead are down again

I put 2 simple sites up on webair. No scripts, SQL, nothing. Put 2 links into wikipedia just to give them a taste of a little tiny bit of traffic and 4 hours later my sites are down and a rep is telling me I used up too much processor power and I gotta upgrade.
I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE WORSE THAN SERVAGE LOL.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”Comment

Nah, not after this crap. Im sticking with hosthead. Looks like the virtuals webair offers are just bait for the dedicateds. Fuck all that. Hostheads service is top notch even if you just have the $2.95 a month plan lol.

OK, well when I asked the rep to find out exactly what cause the issue he bounced out the live chat box thing and somebody else came in with this...
"I'm not able to find anything solid as to why it happened"
and then...
"looks like apache had a hiccup, typically this doesn't happen, however when apache restarted it didn't kill the existing processes which were defunct and therefore was unable to restart"
Might be true so I guess I'll still mess around with the account some more before I drop 'em...“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.

Is it just me or is their live support not live right now? Sucks, cause I need some live support RIGHT NOW!

I cancelled the account... Game over.
Really wasn't THAT bad. I developed 6 sites with them but decided to move them over to one of my other servers for convinience. Only had 1 instance of weird downtime, which is better than I can say for my virtual accounts with other hosts during the same time period. This was a short time, but based on my experience I can safely recommend webair's virtual accounts for small static sites (which is what I had with them).
I must say this though...
1. Expect initial weird problems. such as the ones I posted in this thread...
2. Expect their 24 hour support to not be online sometimes...
3. When you submit a ticket, you will get multiple replies from a bunch of different people durring the span of about a week for the same ticket, even after the problem has been resovled already.“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.
