Changes at ProHosters?

I heard a rumor that ProHosters has a new president, Dan aka kicks. Anyone able to verify this rumor, and possibly provide his attitude towards cats?

I can verify that Ted is no longer in control of the company.

We've done a lot of work for them over the past 6 months and within the last month or 2 we were told that we would be dealing with someone else from now on as Ted was stepping down.

He's been nothing but good to us. I wish him the best.
I wish nothing but the best for his cats as well!

:-)

So does he/did he own it, still?

"Ted is no longer in control of the company" sounds like he is still involved some how and i'm just wondering to what extent?

All it is.. is that the owner.. (Ted) wants some free time.. so he still owns it he still working.. but he is not president...

If it was a public company with 5 divisions and hundreds of employees that change would be important.. but for a small company that doesnt mean anything..

2 or 3 onsite people including ted himself and a small army of romanians. very small company.

I use to be PH's Senior engineer back a year ago. And since then they have gotten smaller

Is that all you got Zak? I thought you could do better than that. How disappointing, how unoriginal.

zak zak zak still haven't learned to do your research first eh.

are you hoping you get a following, that some gfyers will drudge up the cat thing once again and somehow you will make some friends out of the deal. And yes I get sunburnt. I'm not sure what your point is tho. Oh yea you can't crack on my weight now can you. When life deals me lemons I make lemonade...

you mean the "ZAK! CAN YOU CLOSE YOUR SUNROOF I"M GOING TO BURN" and also the "YOUR A/C SUCKS SOO HOT"

your weight? You'll always be ted. the guy who loves to use people for a short term and then screw them out of things. No wonder you have problems you are a control freak.

What exactly did I screw you out of Zak? Please do tell. Let's recall there is a signed NDA on file at PH while you are doing this.

more along the lines of a control freak. If i recall telling me to stop talking to a customer even though he was a friend. lets see .. saying oh yeah I can't go more than 15 minutes away from my apartment becuase OHh thats right i have no life since i'm a 4 PH employee.


Oh and i'd love to actully have a copy of that NDA that i signed. Since you neglected to give me that copy little over a year ago.

This seems to be a recurring problem of yours, what was the name of the company you worked for that had the same problem with you?? Also a customers of PH? All you are doing Zak is pointing out your flaws, have fun doing it, I have a 6:00PM spinner class I don't intend to miss.

And on the lines of the 15 mins away. It was understood in your job descripttion you were oncall and you were given the appropiate resources to do your job. It's not my fault that you couldn't do it, I mean didn't you have the a NOKIA 9000 phone a laptop and also a nextel and a pda all at the companies expense, and internet accounts to get you online for paying customers. It's not my fault you couldn't perform your job so that I had to ask you not to go more than 15 minutes away. Please PH's customers deserve the best, they will get it regardless of what lies you spout. I am sure Dan will continue on the foundation I have laid.

I think a lot of ppl wouldnt go back/to PH just because you're involved still.. I know (as an animal lover) i would never use PH knowing you're still the one who owns it..

Did Biz get that bad that you needed to put space between yourself and the company? I dont think anyone recalls seeing you since the whole cat thing broke.

Please, people. I don't know all the specifics of the interpersonal relationships behind this bickering. I just got back from Webmaster Access though and Ted is in way better shape than most gfyers. It is not like he microwaved any cute furry critters and calling someone fat here is just silly. Give the man a break.

The day I took over at Pro Hosters there was 8 on Site personal.
We are not down sizing.

Ted does not run the company; he does work for the company. Pro Hosters, LLC is not owned by one single owner.

As to Ted being the owner. Ted is one of the owners of Pro Hosters, LLC. The company does of course have a board of directors also and Ted does have a place there. Yes Pro Hosters is a company and so it operates like one. Ted being a large stock holder and the founder of Pro Hosters will always be around. Somone said he wants more time. Ted works more hours now than ever but he is doing what he likes to do, coding and selling hosting, working with the customers is what he enjoys the most.

Pro Hosters has been a solid company for years and it will only be growing as it has been. I don't see the company getting smaller when I see the racks filling up and our space requirements changing all the time. The course of the company is to grow and continue to provide solid hosting and great tech support.

I fail to see what is so hard to understand. He stepped down from running the company. There is a lot more to running a company than selling hosting.

It is not like he microwaved any cute furry critters and calling someone fat here is just silly. Give the man a break.
They can't give the man a break. It is not now nor ever has been more than a personal attack on a person in an attempt to hurt a company. Fact is the attempt failed in a major way and now they are mad that the company grew when they thought it should be getting smaller after their crusade.
