Urgent Alpha Red info
 
Just want to give webmasters fair warning out there if you didn't believe so already.

I have a small box there and I'm almost done moving my stuff!! :2 cents:

--------------------------

I can't give a statement with time frames on providers shutting
down. I will however recommend you back everything up and start
moving to a new host asap. This is an unfortunate situation but
I am doing everything in my power to fix as much as I can!
I am not an alphared executive. I do not want to see peoples'
business die. Move your hosting ASAP!

The clock is ticking down

Somebody hire this Jonathan Box guy asap

Lamis 10-10-2008 02:14 PM

I am moving out.

We will have a few days still. But it is a Russian Roulette.

I think we will survive the weekend, but not further than that.

I don't get it, why was there a big PR fuss about CWIE buying "assets" if the operation is going to be shut down anyway?

That fell through, which is a polite way of saying "decided to drop it like a hot potato".

I wonder how fucked over the mainstream clients are going to be when their shit is down and they're in the dark on why?

Without all the talk here on GFY the adult community wouldn't know how much trouble they're in....Are there mainstream boards with the same kind of AlphaRed talk going on??

If you're not out of there yet get out fast, Check out www.pacificrack.com I know a lot of people have moved there already!

I'm pretty sure that CCBILL wanted to see where all those cheques were coming from and when they got a peek, they closed the books and got the fuck outta there in a hurry, which is probably a good forecast of the chances of Microsoft winning this lawsuit. :2 cents:

Yes they did but you would be surprised how many are still on there and hearing this for the first time! We have gotten many requests to transfer sites and they are still coming in so the more the word gets out on this the better.

Regardless of where the webmasters end up hosting I hope they get their sites off before AR is completely dark.

webair 10-10-2008 05:48 PM

I also had 2 "Media" servers at AR doing about 160 megs. I moved them over to my main host TechieMedia. Techie had me moved and fully running in 2 days, (would have been faster if AR wasn't so slow). Truth be told I am seeing a 20% ish increase in sales so far. I think all the downtimes and just overall slowness of a garbage host using low grade bw really makes a difference. I'm thinking I should have done this years ago.:pimp

HomerSimpson 10-16-2008 11:55 AM

I used AlphaRed years ago and was never happy with their service...
(long waiting on ticket answers or hardware changes, constant hdd failiures....)
The only thing good was the price of bandwidth... but at the end you get what you have paid for...

fris 10-16-2008 01:24 PM

glad i never hosted with them
