i guess likewhoa is gone for good
 

i never heard an official announcement..

i think its fucked up to go out like that and not make any public announcement.

i have some pretty funny/fucked up stories from the last couple of weeks if anyone still wants to hear them, especially since i got a chance to speak to nick and his father face-to-face as i picked up servers from him. :glugglug

plz tell.

WTF are you waiting for. stories plz.

What's going on with them?

like whoa

I'm wearing my Like Whoa shirt right now...

:pimp

hows it going buddy you made 50 cents yet?

im all ears,hurry up though cause its sleep time :/

I worked for LikeWhoa last summer, and got fucked for a good amount of money..

Well, heres the story.

I'm sitting outside the new facility (equinix) and nick's dad is there, as well as a few other people, one i recognized, a past employee and NOC technician..

well my friend goes up to nick's dad, and asks about a $1000 check he received that had bounced.

Nick, my friend, and his dad argue and bicker about it, apparently nick and his dad are blaming Stan for running away with the company money (which I and everyone else pretty much know is 100% complete bullshit).

So my friend asks his dad something along the lines of this- "How can you not pay me, your son is driving around in a brand new CL 55, i had to ask a friend for a ride here" -

his dad said something along the lines of "nick and likewhoa have no money, i pay for that car"

(they were speaking in russian, i needed someone to translate) :)

Anyways, my friend goes to nicks dad "you see that guy over there, nick owes him XX dollars from last summer"

so his dad asks me my name, i told him how ive known nick for a while, worked hard for him, and proceeded to explain how I had proof his son did illegal things and the only reason I hadn't dropped a lawsuit yet was because I suspected them of going bankrupt.. i said a lot of stuff to his dad, i told him I saw the PDF file to the VERIO lawsuit, and it was no secret how LWI did business..

well, his dad - this very successful millionaire - had the most stale look on his face, and did not say a word to me, 5 minutes later (we had to go around the building to the loading dock to pick up some servers) i see nick sitting on the curb like a little boy and it looked as if his father was scolding him..

to think this guy was on the board right before all this bragging how much money he had, and abouyt his new CL 55 pissing on me and everyone else who talked shit about him.

fucked up shit.

oh, and on a side note, last weekend im driving with a friend to go shopping, and nick calls me to let me know if i needed to pick up any boxes, to do so by this past wednesday or else he would be charging a COLO fee, when i asked how much, he said he didnt know, he also told me he wouldnt be doing business under LikeWhoa anymore..

for those of you who didnt know, when they moved into their new facility, they could only deal with one provider from what i hear, it didnt take too long for LikeWhoa's reputation to reach the provider, and they turned him off for one reason or another, and after that, they were pretty much fucked.

30cents? You need to multiplie that with ten for me ..$3 bucks yesterday..and I think I break that with horse lenghts today.

:2 cents:

Biggy2,
I can't believe you are still thinking about them.
I was hosted there and I was trying to move my sites before they finally folded. When your host stops answering emails then it's time to haul ass in a hurry. Don't ever make that mistake again.

You're right though, they should have emailed an annoucenment or posted on some boards. At least you got your servers so that's one bright spot. We all lost our money though, I was only a couple days into my new billing cycle. I guess that's why they bolted so I couldn't ask for a refund.

So tell us your stories.

there is SOOO much more though, you guys dont even want to know :)

WOW

where do i sign up ?

p.s
im serious

p.p.s
no not really :)

tell us bitch:Graucho

god Im fucked up..Im almost worse than Manny..

I need some sleep..:helpme

btw, www.ISPrime.com :thumbsup

Fast as hell on support..icq, blink and I had hotlink protection..wow!

:thumbsup

you guys shouldve seen his dad's face when i told him how i tried calling the office to resolve the situation, but i would always get excuses that he had just left the office..

so i tried calling on friday afternoons when i knew he was doing jack shit, got the same excuses..

then i would ask some friends who still worked there, and they would tell me that he was playing video games in the other room..

is that a slap in the face or what?

In my sig!

please do it :)

Thats fucking funny Biggy..more plzzz

:1orglaugh

More dude, I still got half a 40 to finish.

honestly, there is SOOO much more, part of me wants to post it, the other part doesnt.

payback's a bitch...

one thing, i never forget anyone who fucks me, the people who know me will tell you..

i can either be the nicest guy in the world, or the world's biggest bitch :)

man..what a fuck up :1orglaugh

Sad ending to the story. Like Whoa (minus the mistakes) had a ton of potential. It could have been a monster.

I say post more! :)

SPIT IT OUT!

Yeah, I Agree! Why not?

no popcorn required, no one can get ahold of nick.. :)

and hes the only one who would post defending himself..

i think its kinda hard when he knows everything im saying is the truth 100%.

the fact hes offline almost 3 weeks now :)

i got another story coming.. give me 2 minutes to type it up :)

just cracked open a coldie

HURRY UP!!!!! :)

Really it's 3:30 a.m here and I need my beauty sleep!

When I signed up with likewhoa I was like "I finally got a place to leave my sites and let them grow".
I thought it's time to focus on other things now and then BAM!!!
I was fucked. Man was I ever in the dumps. So I feel ya.

alright. this is pretty fucking funny, well not funny for the employees.

from what i hear..nick took a trip to hawaii semi-recently with his girlfriend (the company problems were imminent at the time) -- they went to hawaii.

apparently nick withdrew funds from the company account while he was on the trip, this was at a time where employees were owed money, and were working while owed money.

how fucked up is that, to owe your employees money, and then to withdraw money from the company account while on vacation (not to mention he had a partner).

yo nick, your vacation i guess was apparently more important than people paying their rent and food bills.

I also want to mention most of the people who worked in the office weren't well off by any means, which makes this shit 100X worst, since they truly did need the money!

gee, now why doesnt it surprise me that the providers were never paid..

paybacks a bitch.

this fuck was on the board boasting about his CL 55 and how much money he had, i wish i had his dad saying how he paid for the CL 55 on tape.

nothing but a pimp wanna be

fucking wanksta.

the more i listen to that song by 50 cent, the more i think about this little bitch..

download it "Wanksta" - by 50 cent, for those who don't listen to hip hop :)

What a sleaze bag. I'm sure he'll be back with some other business most likely another hosting business.

He'll find some sucker to become his partner so they can get a provider. He'll be a silent partner who spends the cash while everyone else starves lol what a pig.

Keep feeding us.. MORE!

He came to Hawaii! Damn!!! I live in Hawaii.
You mean I had a chance to kick his ass and missed it.
DAMN!!!

true wanksta. :321GFY

the truth is, this is only SOME of the stuff.

the former employees who worked there longer could probably tell you more.

i wish stan, dennis, ben or any of those guys would come here and post some fucked up stories about nick :helpme

where the fuck is herb kornfeld when you need him?!

I a curious, as prevously you stated there was an employee/employer relationship in the past.

Could you provide us with an overview of the LikeWhoa facility.
How many boxes did they own and operate.
what was the capacity of the boxes.
Routers? Switches? Location(s) etc.

I use the same control panel and hosting management system for my own in house hosting, as they did.
