Everything on one server, no backup whatsoever?
You know they can recover hard drives. Take it in.

It's all my own damn fault for keeping shitty backups, and getting abehind on a payment. Amerinoc switched to their new payment ticket system, I kept sending in my payments directly, which apparently means they weren't tracked in the system. I always pay by eCheck which added and extra 6-8 days for payment to clear. Used to get a lot of leeway with Phatservers and hosted with them for a long time. If I got behind a month, I just doubled up the next month and it was never problem. Now you get automatically wiped after 45 days overdue by the system with no human review. Combine my month behind, with the pyment not tracked by the system and my eCheck setting me back, I surpassed their threshhold and everything got shitcanned. Apparently there's some old backups kicking around, not sure I even care at this point, but I'll see what's left over.
I got a solid $80k/year job right now doing track inspection for CN. I only planned on working til the end of summer, but with this turn I think I might just bite the bullet and kiss the net goodbye and run with it. I dunno. Pretty much put the nail int he coffin of my internet career though. I haven't even started totaling the total value of what I've lost. If anyone followed what I was saying about my poor money management at the end of last year, they'd know I made a lot of money in a short period doing some mainstream stuff, and spent it all very poorly on investments which were left half finished and unusable until they were finished. Pretty sure all that is gone, along with a lot of other stuff. I have rough backups kicking around for a lot of stuff, but it will take a lot of time to put it all back together and get things back in order. Don't know if I care to do it. Poor management on my part sunk the ship. |

Before this gets out of hand...there is waaaay more to the story then "Amerinoc doing wipes" Nothing has changed here, Just a client 4 MONTHS behind on his bill and his server getting yanked. We stil have backup and offered them if he paid up.

that's why i have all my shit in a few dif baskets now. no one host, no one registrar, one one site, no one niche. had a similar - but not the same - experience a few years ago that taught me a hard but valuable lesson.

I take full responsibility for what happened, but I still feel fucked knowing that you guys knew my server was done when I sent the first half of the payment in. After 2 years of hosting, you couldn't wait 2 weeks for me to pay off the total owing after I had already sent in half the amount owing. Wait until the payments are all clear and cool, then tell me everything is gone aside from some old backups. No one told me anything about the payments needing to go through the ticket system until the latest email I received. I can see why you needed to be quiet about my shit being gone. You and I both know I wouldn't have sent the second half of the payment in had you told me you already cleared my shit back at the first payment. Either way, to clear the air. I still think you guys are one of the best hosts out there. Great support, and fair prices. Just feeling a little dinked right now. Guess we'll see what comes out of the backups. |

It was 3 months I owed for. One of which was covered a couple weeks ago. No situation I haven't been in with Phatservers in the past. I always paid up in full, things never went wrong in the past. I got comfortable with it, and they choose to tighten up their ship. That's all, entirely fair on their part. I lay no blame on Amerinoc or Phatservers. Would have been nice to get a little more notice of the fact that they were tightening up on things, but hey, if I never got behind I never would have hd to deal with it.

I'm getting a huge deja vu feeling. Didn't this happen to another fellow in the past year or so? Sorry, but four months is quite a while to be behind. It looks like they still have your backups for you, at least.

Like I said, i don't really care at this point. Everything is squared up now. I'll see what's left of my backups. But most of what I have that was actually turning a decent income were newer projects built since around the time of the old backups. If there's anything leftover that seems good for anything, I'll probably just liquidate whatever is leftover and call it quits.

Why are your backups so old? My host does daily backups. If I find out they are not doing them it will be their ass.

The backups are from February, which will save some of my older stuff, and I'm not sure how much of it yet. There's only a handful of projects I really want to see saved here, and most of the heavy work went into them starting January/February, so I dunno what will be recovered. I never chose to pay extra for backups. Again, my own fault.

It'll take a little while to sink in, but I'm just gonna get comfy and settle into my new life as a track inspector. I think it'll be best for me in the long run anyways. Now I'm gonna go drink some beers and have steak with my crew, forget about this shit.
Good luck everyone. Keep on top of your backups, manage your business like a business. Don't wind up down the same road I did. At least I'm not bankrupt. ![]() |
