Personal Introduction / CHOOPA hosting deals

[Cyandin]

GFY'ers,

I'd like to take this opportunity to formally introduce myself to those of you who don't already know me. My name is Costa Galazios, Choopa's newest addition to their sales team. I'll be on the board daily, helping out those who are interested in learning more about the multitude of services we have to offer.

With any of our packages, you can rest easy knowing that you will have the support of one of the most talented support teams in the industry. Unlike some places, Choopa prides itself on maintaining the highest level of customer service and satisfaction in its support department - the results speak for themselves! We have an incredibly high customer retention rate, and we only want to keep raising it.

If you're looking for quality bandwidth and skilled, proactive management, why look elsewhere? We can attend to all of your needs without charging you till you're blue in the face.

Thanks a lot Just gettin' the word out, letting everyone know I'm here and ready to compete for your business.

Nothing benefits the consumer like good ol' fashioned competition.

[SpacemanSpiff]

I dealt with Costa when he was at another host and he was great to work with.

hey congrats Costa...

[candyflip]

CHOOPA isn't a banned word here any more? That's cool.

[undersoul]

well if your team had the courtesy to notify us when you moved datacenters and we were down for a week without any communication at all from choopa you would have better chance at getting my biz

and since when is the word choopa not banned on gfy??

[Robbie]

Wow undersoul. I've never had a problem communicating with Choopa ever. I pick the phone up or ICQ to Dave or Frank and they get whatever I need done in minutes. I've never had a problem like that.

Though I know nothing of this even of which you speak, I can tell you that I regularly give out my PERSONAL cell phone number to my clients, letting them know that they can wake me up at 3am if need be, to make sure something is handled. I take my relationships with clients to be as much of a personal matter as a business matter, and that philosophy still applies %110, now that I'm at Choopa.

[Oracle Porn]

If redtube can host their stolen shit there so can you!

[Jon Clark - BANNED FOR LIFE]

Hey, we can type choopa now..... hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Jeka]

I used to host with Choopa a couple of years ago and was satisfied.

[spazlabz]

Bump for a solid host that has been around awhile :D

Thank guys

I'm around at most hours, so feel free to give me a call or email going over what you have now or what you'd like to have, and I'll prepare an offer for any sized solution you need.

[KBoogie]

Very nice!

[TheDoc]

Yo, fuck your deal. Here is the deal, stop spamming my ICQ with your Choopa shit. How many times does a man have to say no, not interested, no, not interested and then turn around get more icq spams?


My name is to the left and my icq is below, remove it. I'm bored as hell enough to post this, I'm bored enough to follow you around on every forum with the same message. Or I could just write a bot to do the dirty work for me, interesting... I am bored.

Maybe, I will start spamming your clients here with my hosting companies offers? Oh so many directions one could go in, so much spam that can slung.

[darksoul]

it would be nice if you guys wouldn't reboot servers while I'm away. Planning ahead didn't hurt anybody so far.

Is this true. Can you verify do you guys support content theft?

My sincere apologies - icq removed.

I see you updated us on your spamming of Doc but can you verify if choopa is proud to be a safe haven for content thieves like asked above?

I know companies like Nat Net and Mojo Host have worked hard to keep there servers clean of scum like that.

[Cyandin]

Also, I'd like to offer the following:

Anyone who currently has a setup with a host offering full managed services and a top-notch network, feel free to get my price for your setup. I'm not out to give basement prices for back-alley bandwidth, but I'd surely like you know what I can give you that will rival any host out there, in terms of service and quality.

Even if you stay with your current host, why not know what I can be giving you for your money? Competition is always to the benefit of the customer, and I want you to have the largest helping of that benefit as possible.

So that?s you way of saying yes we do nto care what you do as long as you buy bandwidth good to know. There are a lot of thieves and shady people looking for a cheap way to rip people off and then stick it to you when they go down also.

I prefer to host with ethical companies like Nat Net and Mojo that don't support those stealing my content. I know from the client lists both companies have that I am not alone on this.

WTF hell must have frozen over or pigs have learned to fly and I missed it for you and me to be on the same side of an argument.

[Cyandin]

This isn't the place for the 2345283475th discussion on tubesite ethics.

That said, my offer stands to give you the best price possible for quality managed services on an excellent network. Why not know what you could be saving?

Now now, I'm just a bot doing what bots do when flagged words appear.

I'm always on your side Charles, but if I stop and agree with others all the time I would never have an opinion of my own, and god knows I must have my own opinion.

Oh your right I should just ignore what you sell out the back door so you can get me a great price on what I want to buy out the front. Nice try bud but I think I rather not put money in the pockets of guys that have no business in this business.

Budsbuds thanks for this link

Some interesting stuff on how many times these guys have been called out as crooks and blacklisted in so many places.

[klaze]

I love how these sales guys are soo smooth on doing whatever their client demands even if it includes ripping off other clients.

Cyadin you just fucked up.

With all the tubes given clandestine support by major companies, getting high and mighty requires some serious research.

We sell a damn good service to those who pay for it. Pointing fingers at tubes is no different than Christians pointing fingers at the whole adult industry for stealing the innocence from all the 18 year old girls the biz makes into porn starlets.

We don't rip anyone off - this industry is full of competition and will always be, simple as that.

Like I said, I'm here to give out some greats deals, and they're here for the taking!

[Brad Mitchell]

Hi Choopa folks,

Welcome back to GFY!

Best Wishes,

[Andy CHOOPA]

Hey Brad,

Thanks, glad to be here.

LOL OMG thank you I have not laughed so hard in a long time. Your comparing the illegal theft of content to the moral disagreement the industry has with right wing Christians? Im not pointing fingers at tubes I'm pointing figures at companies that have no problem profiting from theft of the very companies they are trying to do business with. At least right wing Christians don't call us moral degenerates and then ask for donations. You sir are the bottom of the barrel.

You may say your not ripping people off but your no different then a pawn shop that profits from selling stolen goods which is still considered a crime. I can only wait for the day you get nailed as co-conspirators in a copyright infringement case.

[klaze]

Choopa is no different than the people providing a safe house to Osama Bin Laden.

How's that for a stupid comparison.

[Techie Media]

Welcome back Choopa gang. I have multiple data centers in 165 halsey st, as well as our nely built offices. We should get together sometime.

So what are you telling me the owners of Choopa own a tube or 2?

Pointing fingers at tubes is no different than Christians pointing fingers at the whole adult industry for stealing the innocence from all the 18 year old girls the biz makes into porn starlets.

That makes no sense.

Do Bars give Beer away for free?

You are hosting websites that will host another businesses' content for people to view for free.

If I run a paysite my major source of income is someone paying me to see my content.

If they can see that content for free I AM NOT GETTING PAID!

If I don't get paid. I can't pay my bills and feed my kids.

You are supporting people that are taking FOOD from the mouth of my KIDS!

(I don't actually have kids or content)

We don't rip anyone off - this industry is full of competition and will always be, simple as that.

With your unethical form of business you are helping to support the people who rip other people off.

Like I said, I'm here to give out some greats deals, and they're here for the taking!

If I find my content on one of your hosted sites will you give me FREE hosting since i've technically already paid for it in lost sales?

[Andy CHOOPA]

Absolutely. Didn't realize you were so close. And Thanks

[klaze]

Actually if I owned a paysite I would have many sources of income.

All based on the fact the surfer is SIGNING UP TO MY SITE!

So since the surfer is not signing up to my site because he just saw one of my hottest videos for free on RedTube and got off.. I am not just losing the profit earned on the content but i'm also losing profit earned on cross sales, upsells, affiliate linking, etc..

So other people are losing sales not just me.. Anyone who does business with my site is losing sales.

Why do you constantly ask that stupid question?

This is the internet, people work in and support adult that you've never met at a show.

get over it.

You support choopa? after knowing they support illegal tubes that may host your stolen content?

[Robbie]

I asked who you were. You can't answer. That's an answer. Thanks.

*sigh*

Figure out what tubesite I said MassiveDollars was promoted on and you will find roughly 20 full length 30min videos from your Claudia Marie site.

Maybe if you didn't treat "newbs" like they were born yesterday i'd give you an actual link.

[ladida]

Were you with Aplus before Cyndin?

Really? OK, I'll show this to my boys at removeyourcontent.com and have them find it for me. Thanks. And I didn't treat you like anything. I just asked you who you are. But I guess you're just too damn good to tell anybody. That's cool. Carry on bro.
