If I am reading this post right, It looks like traffic101 is saying that his content was licensed by HPF inc , & that his accuser is the one without license to that same content..?
Am I right?
"a big professional comapny like webair handling a client like this? yeah right"
------
It certainly seems odd to go on a chatboard and handle these kind of issues there - but Webair is obviously trying to defend its company policy, which is ofcourse their right.
I will stay neutral - i hope both parties can handle this in a mature and professional manner from now on.

They offered you free hosting for life , so be smart..
If you're in the rightful position to use the questioned content, then take their offer & let bygones be bygones..
Webair is trying to work with you , but you're going in circles now..
What is it gonna be..
spacedog, he *cant* and he wont fax it, cuz he doesnt own it LoL
Originally posted by traffic101 I have all needed paperwork, which will be provided to FTC,
webair should ask me for this paperwork when they received complaint, but your phone number was not working, we have send you email, which I never received.
fast mail (fedex, ups) was not an option.
haha webairs phone number was not working?
you may have a point, it must be smoke signals i send to NYC WebAir when I speak to Mike EVERY SINGLE DAY EVEN ON WEEKENDS...
I have spoke with webair over phone 6 times in Friday.
Tech support didnt know why are my sites down, they have told me why have been my sites removed in sunday.
If I am driving on a suspended license, without insurance (in CA), and I get rear-ended..... Does it matter that it was not my fault? *NO* My ass goes to jail and I have to pay for it all, why? Because I was criminal (wrong) in the first place and shouldn't have been on the road!
You are a content thief of the highest order, you dont even deserve proper notice, WebAir was kind enough to give you due time, and you are lucky it didnt get pulled the second they found out, because like the driver driving without a license and insurance, it doesnt matter jack shit, you were in the wrong in the first place...

Another lie.
Again, we have backups that tech support offered you, it wasn't until you threatened physical abuse to tech support that they didn't respond and required you to speak with me.
Taken from an e-mail you sent to tech support:
"I have grab all movies from bukkake-bath.com and i am using them on my website and I will keep using them, if you want I will just change webhost, I spoke with Chris and he said noone at webair wont do anything until something legal is provided from attorneys."
Originally posted by traffic101 I have ask tech support, guys all my sites are down was I hacked?
guy said I will check, I have call back in 20minutes, he said have you by chance delete your material, I only see empty directories.
Another lie.

but he wont be able to receive the DVD player due to his array of fictitious information and addresses...
actually, i heard a rumor that Mike@Webair is really traffic101 and he just really wanted a DVD player, but didnt know which fake address to send it to... shit... that didnt make sense.... but then again, does any of this thread??

anyone notice traffic101 reply is short? look at his first post, its like a fuckin essay, i think he just want a dvd player now, at first i was on his side, now he just pissed me off.
Hey Mike, if it helps man, I have 4 sites on webair and have always had an easy time getting response and things fixed, as a matter of fact I registered a new domain 2 days ago and contacted webair yesterday regarding "pointing" the url to their servers and this morning an email was there.
Webair has ALWAYS dealt with me one on one and in a cool laid back manner, one of the reasons I continue to use them, I can obviously find cheaper than them, but their quality of service and friendliness has maintained my loyalty.
hey Mike, on my new site can I get that 30 days free even though Im existing client?
k-man, do you get paid for that or what? jesus, bro, you made your point obvious about a hundred times... no one is going to believe that webair is the fucking number one hosting company just because you are posting like spacedog in this thread... take a break, would ya?
haha no, but i am good friends of Mike and he has been nothing but cordial and professional from day 1 and his reputation goes back as far as mine...
I just dont like to see people jump on a bandwagon for the hell of it... Content thiefs should all rot in hell, with cat burgalars, bank robbers and the like....
I am done with this thread, with an offer like Mike layed on the table, I don't see much room for any furhter discussion, he put his services where his mouth is and I commend that...
"Let them Give a Free trail then they will be mad when you Leave them after the Free trial"
... why not take 5 free trials and then leave ... if "webair" really is the boss of this company, devending himself here makes him look like a twat, if they took this thief down for not haveing his content licensed, that´s fine, but why is "webair" doing it the hard way now? he should have never responded in the first place ... unless he had some 50 more clients since yesterday ... conspiracy, conspiracy !!!
I think (not that anyone gives a shit what I think, but.....)
you're both in the wrong.
Traffic101 if you stole content, or even worse and entire site design, then you're scum and you shouldn't be in this biz. If the only way you can make $$ here is to copy other people's work then you should seriously consider other career options.
As for Webair, getting an email from another pissed off webmaster is not reason enough to remove an account. If you get a cease and desist letter from an attorney, then you have to do whatever your legal dept tells you to do, but until it comes to that you need to side with your client.
I have liscenses to every picture on my site, and suppose you got an email from someone saying something was stolen while I was in Vegas in January? I obviously wasn't around to answer the phone or reply to emails. But since I wasn't home and able to reply in what you considered a timely manner would you take down my sites and kill my livelihood while I was away?
And even if you were presented with undisputable proof from an attorney, shouldn't you have taken down only the offending domain and not his entire account? If I recall correctly traffic101 seems much more upset about losing linkdatabase.com than japanbukkake.com.
What is Webair?s policy about webmasters who have ?possible? stolen or illegal content on their website? I?ve looked at their website and don?t see anything that outlines what I ?can and can?t do!?.
I figure, if the company policy says that as a webmaster, I have to supply written proof that the content I have up on my site is legal, then I would think that if I do not respond within this given timeframe, my site would be taken down until such notice has been given to Webair.
However, if there is no such policy in place, then I think Webair should have kept the site up or at least have taken the liberty to email this guy the fact that his site was going to be taken down instead of giving him the run around?
As for those who have received good service from Webair in the past, I think every company has their share of customers who praise them and have experienced nothing but the best service and support, along with a good portion of customers who have not been so fortunate, especially when it comes to sites being taken down without warning, emails gone unanswered for days and everything else that would account to shit service.
So the bottom line is still?what is this company?s policy about what you can and can?t do when hosting w/them?

K-Man, go take a rest from defending your friend. This is a business and legal issue which should preclude any of your remarks made on behalf of your friendship.
I've had negative experiences with Webair in the past and know of at least two others. Tech support was always available but issues never seemed to get resolved completely. It was always temporary. Sites would go down many times each month without explanation or warning. Lost sales and traffic were never figured into an always increasing hosting fee.
Traffic, you're not alone in your experience. You may or may not have been at fault here. I'm not saying Webair is to blame nor you. I don't know. Let the FTC investigate and make their judgement.
All other services at Webair were great but without having your site online at all times, any hosting is just not worth it.
