They don't know what the problem is yet. They are looking into it.

This is like the 3rd or 4th time since the beginning of June that candid has gone down. Fucking sucks.

I still wonder why "the big boys call it home". Candid goes down more than a slut on Jerry Springer.

Fucking hillarious!

Once again Candid makes an ass out of itself with a 0.00% downtime guarantee.

Hey, I'm running a special at SinHost this week - 99.99% uptime. We took .01% off just for shits and giggles. I haven't ever been down but eventually I expect to have a hiccup somewhere.

Marketing 0.00% downtime is just plain lying. So what do all you great Candid customers get when they're down with their 100% uptime guarantee? Also, I'm wondering when Candid's marketing people are going to update their propoganda.

Fuck yeah more than an hour on my box,, about three hours to be exact. I am fuming because I have to struggle to catch up on trades after the MO FO goes down,, every once in awhile would be ok, but this is going on a daily basis now I do believe.

It didnt effect all servers today, But MINE just so happens to always be in the "FUCKED" pocket of "HICCUPPPPS"

SORRY, but I am so mad, No SLEEP does this too me. I am tired of working my ass off and this happens. I mean, shit search engine submissions were screwed this go around.

Once again Mariuz, Go Fuck Yourself.

I didn't post in here for any other reason then to bitch about a lack of truth in advertising. Fuck Candid for advertising 0.00% downtime. It's not the truth and I think it's shameful that they're lie to get business. I would expect most seasoned webmasters to know better but I can assure you that this gives false hope to newbies that are getting their first dedicated server - and that's a shame.

Otherwise, I think they have an excellent network and teriffic support staff. My problem is with their bullshit advertising claim and nothing else. Haven't you noticed that I post in ever thread about them being down with laughter? They're a huge network and of course there will be problems occasionally. I'm not even suggesting that they have too many problems. What bugs me is simple: don't advertise 0.00% downtime because it's a lie. I'm sure you don't mind that Mariuz - but being a person of principle myself I hate it when people lie.

With regard to your other bullshit comments, they're not even worth responding to

Brad
