    If you ever send traffic to ConversionCash you're certain to get only one thing, No signups and some really nice shaving!

        it's actually Network Plus who uses Qwest. but the weird thing is this:

        16 001-173.np1.net (64.61.1.173) 90.614 ms 90.554 ms 90.662 ms
        Cogent -> 17 66.28.20.70 (66.28.20.70) 100.663 ms 102.987 ms 100.269 ms
        18 ns2.likewhoa.com (66.181.170.170) 103.560 ms 104.973 ms 99.525 ms

        out of all the routes i see announced for them, they all end with 209 11846 21790 (according to telnet://route-views.oregon-ix.net/) - that's Qwest, NP1, and LikeWhoa. i guess Cogent is just transit from NP1's facility to LikeWhoa's?

            Pipecrew... dont let penis envy get in the way of you seeing straight.

            Allliquid = Likewhoa correct?

            And as far as ConversionCash goes, that attempt at a piss is really not worth dignifying with an answer... bottom line is that likewhoa has taken thousands of dollars, cost us nearly 6 figures in lost revenue and never did anything to make it right aside from apologizing, promising to fix it, fucking up some more and apologizing again.

            The phrase "it's like watching a monkey fuck a football" comes to mind... and yes.. you're the monkey.

            Now get back to being a fulltime poster cause we all know you must not spend much time focusing on your business.

                    still no verio. curious how people are liking cogent? do they notice a difference from LW's network? i know i've always thought cogent had to be garbage but i admit i haven't actually used it (to my knowledge).

                        i'm kinda amazed. judging by the board a LOT of poeple host with likewhoa. nobody's got a opinion of what Cogent is like after experiencing "TIer 1" Verio bandwidth?

                        higher latency? less bandwidth? or is it better?

                            If you guys even make 6 figures a year I'd be shocked... Conversioncash is the most outdated shitbag operation I know of, as for me being a full time poster, atleast I dont look like one in the real world

                                24 hrs later, it is definitely cogent on the outbound.

                                Its certainly still cogent on the inbound for some traffic.

                                    why do you want to change the subject pipecrack?

                                    did i touch a nerve?

                                    rather than bashing our program, why dont you explain exactly how your company stole from us?

                                    ps.. you're right... we dont make 6 figures a year... its just me.... sitting around in a studio apartment.. carving up photos all day.... eating ramen.

                                                    Looks like bandwidthtruth's prediction of them switching to Yipes! came true. I guess he wasn't full of shit after all.

                                                                Well, since you all brought up Galaxy Net, I thought I would let everyone know, http://www.imedia.net is basically the old Galaxy Net, or what is left of it. Its run by Michael Lindsay. What a prick! He also pyle drived webcash.com into the ground as well.

                                                                            i didn't think they were still in business frankly, heh.

                                                                            btw, they're seen through level3 because yipes is a level3 customer. their performance is questionable (i've seen it) at least, their gear is (and without good gear, what can you do?)

                                                                            edit: also btw, it looks like all of their announcements come from yipes. bgp ends with 6517 21790 (according to route-views.oregon-ix.net). i don't know what their outbound is like of course.

                                                                            is yipes better than cogent for y'all? still never saw anyone sayin anything about how cogent was vs. verio.. i'm very curious.

It's just a simple fact. When your core market makes its hosting decisions based primarily on price alone you simply don't have the funds to pay all your bills, or bring in the ' big boy ' equipment, or many other things that the more expensive hosts have.

                                                                                            I remember the outage a few months ago, all the excuses as to why it happened and also the midnight move.

                                                                                            If this was in fact something that they knew about or had any control over ( other than paying their bills ) then notice would have been given to their clients. This is assuming that they were the quality ISP that every one hopes for, an ISP that really gives a crap if you are making money or not. As we can all see they either didn?t care enough to notify people, didn?t pay their bills again ( my guess ) or just couldn?t handle the networking issues that came as a result of any of the above.

                                                                                            No matter how they try to ' spin ' the story the simple fact is that if they were as stable ( financially or network wise ) as they should be none of these issues effecting their customers would exist. This is because they would easily be able to afford to keep the carriers running, the equipment up to date, and have provisions in place to pick up the slack when parts of their network fail that are beyond their control.

That takes some serious bling -- and I don't see other hosts giving away a BMW at Internext... Take LikeWhoa as a whole -- look at how many projects they have going on... If LikeWhoa was short on funds I don't think my bare naked ass would be sitting right now on this kick ass oversized AdultCentro beach towel... Hehe...

And if we got a letter 10 days before, we'd do something about, we are serious about our business.

I've seen the numbers they have been paying Verio firsthand and for them to be able to afford all that B/W they are nowhere close to broke. The folks over there also say they paid their bills. Whatever thier problems were in the last 36 hours being broke isn't one of them.

I've seen the numbers they have been paying Verio firsthand and for them to be able to afford all that B/W they are nowhere close to broke. The folks over there also say they paid their bills. Whatever thier problems were in the last 36 hours being broke isn't one of them.
                                                                                                                    having big bills doesn't equate having lots of money.

                                                                                                                    about the paying the bills.. i just don't get how they lost connectivity so suddenly and were unable to regain it with verio unless they were shut off. if they shut off the line themselves they'd have had a new one already pre-arranged right? so it'd have to be verio. correct me if i'm wrong?

                                                                                                                    nobody is sharing their experiences. that's a bummer.

                                                                                                                        The issue to get service back up MAY have been technical, but the root cause between Verio and LW is a business --not-- a technical one. If it were Verio's fault, I am reasonably sure LW would have said so on numerous occasions and talked about all the legal action they are planning on behalf of their own, and their customers' interests.

                                                                                                                        Verio is _not_ back being their primary provider as LW said it would be, and Cogent/Yipes seem to be handling their traffic -- both providers, btw, are cheaper than Verio in the NYC market.

                                                                                                                        And as someone mentioned earlier, Yipes is the only advertising LW routes in BGP.

                                                                                                                        I am not making any statements on quality, but if any of these providers are owed cash, I am sure their attorneys' will be looking for blood.

                                                                                                                            It takes money to grow a hosting operation to the size they have become over the last couple years, and it takes some know how. Any issues we've ever had with them basically boiled down to slow customer service response, which hasn't happened in awhile either. Both Nick and Stan have been quick to personally answer any questions I've had in the last month, and their uptime has been great to this little blip in the road.

                                                                                                                            EVERY host, I don't care how big or how well connected they are, has problems at some point in the road, and if someone promises you 100% uptime with great mms responses they are kidding either you or themself.

                                                                                                                            Will we have future problems with them and the rest of our hosts? I'm sure we will. How they handle it after the fact is what determines how much of our money they continue to get.

                                                                                                                                    We have some stuff hosted with them, it's on Verio bandwidth, and its running just fine.

                                                                                                                                        Then why do you care? You are not a Like Whoa client, if they are unhappy they will address it with us. If we didn't fulfill on what we promised, and can't do anything in order to make sure that this never happens again, or credit them accordingly, then what do you want from this?

                                                                                                                                        Do you really think that after years of building this in a vision I did your posts or anybody else's to attract more attention to the matter are going to do anything? Do you think _I_ will give up to do whatever it takes to make sure my clients are happy?

                                                                                                                                        I don't understand the reasoning behind some people posting. My clients were informed, they were informed along the process (those who missed it - it was in the stats area). I sent a letter to every client telling them who serves their bandwidth, what happened, why and what did about it... and even WHY it took so long...

                                                                                                                                        What is this with you and everybody else who just wants to see this bumped up more. Any accusation or rumor is doing nothing but wasting people's time. I dont' have a single client of mine, personally complaining to me right now, as a matter of fact, I get responses to my e-mails thanking me for being upfront.

                                                                                                                                        Wake up and smell the coffee. I built this company with my team and it's here to stay. Whether you are going to add to this hiccup of problems or not, it's not changing my outlook. It's only making me work harder.

                                                                                                                                        If we screwed up, we will fix it. If you can do better, then compete and take everything away from us. Our clients are provided with the best service this industry has to offer, and that's not my ego, that's our family of clients telling the NOC.

                                                                                                                                        If some people are unhappy, we usually address. If they are pissed off to a point we can't do anything about, we understand. We learn and we do better next time.

                                                                                                                                        That's how we function, and that's how we got where we are.

                                                                                                                                        Just give up already, everybody knows what happened. Even if people didn't read GFY and they happen to be influenced by this problem we had, they already know about it. And not from you, from ME telling them about it.

                                                                                                                                        You might be a nice guy, and just do this out of curiosity, but notice how you are not even a client posting here? Geez.

You HAVE the opportunity here to dispell all the rumors and the technical observations, but instead use your posts to obfuscate the details and complain about posters who are your potential customers. Or at least, they were.

                                                                                                                                            Did LW screw up?

                                                                                                                                            ---

Any hosting thread or even mention of a host has someone from LW looking for business. If LW can't take the scrutiny, it shouldn't be prolific in its efforts to evangelize itself.

You seem to be more affected by the problem then my clients are? Marketing has nothing to do with informing on what we screwed up about it and on why. It has to do between Like Whoa and its clients/partners.

                                                                                                                                                My goal is not to satisfy your needs, but my clients'. Public image is the last thing I care about when hundreds of people experienced a problem. Routing through Cogent? Not since 3AM yesterday.

                                                                                                                                                I'll market my company when I make adjustments to address on what we screwed up on. That way, when those issues are not just fixed but positively brought to our clients, I'll market it in a way that you will understand what happened. Trust me.

So you felt because our clients are properly informed in the best matter we can, they don't post, so hence that's a bad thing? I see... just another perspective I guess

                                                                                                                                                            It's because everybody is available round the clock, from tech support down to me for the period of this problem and answer questions as they are addressed. Weird I guess.

Complaining this isn't the right forum to be airing LW's visible problems, and then bragging about how great your support is.

                                                                                                                                                                If you can't reassure the interested parties about your network's stability, who cares what the support is like? Besides, when you are having a major network outage, what do you expect support to do? Go home? Everyone is working when the fire alarm is rung.

The most important task for us is to make sure that OUR CLIENTS are happy, then comes everything else. New clients are what we will do once we sort out what happened.

                                                                                                                                                                    Whatever happened, Like Whoa in NO WAY is passing blame on soembody else. I've mentioned this before. Every and any problem that occurs would always be our fault.

                                                                                                                                                                    We are just doing what it takes to make sure such never happens again. Don't worry, we take all criticism seriously and our perspective on this requires immediate attention.

                                                                                                                                                                    ...and we are doing this right now. Now next week, next month. Right this second and wouldn't post anything until we know it's fixed, not patched.
