I am on vacation this weekend and when I go to check some stats I see that my cgi is not working, I then check my email and Strictly said that my cgi (ES and Scorpion) crashed their servers twice and that they turned off my cgi. I need a new host and I need a new host quickly. If anyone has any connections over at servint please get in touch with me. I am going to need immediate setup. I will be back on icq tommmorrow evening. I will probably miss most of the super bowl due to this error. If you are trading with ridex and mrplatinum please keep trades live. When I get them re hosted I will contact everyone to begin to send again. I have the outside traffic so rebuilding the trades shouldn't take long. Sorry if this has caused anyone problems. I know it has ruined what I would have liked to call a little vacation. Thanks again.

get in line. I used their sign up page, still waiting for them to contact me before I fax my CC info.

nick, mail them to be sure thay even got the application. I signed up 2-3 times before they even acknowledged it. So far they haven't made me satisfied, and they keep screwing things up. They sure seemed ok before...

Alternatively you could use a lighter load script http://adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/wink.gif

UCJ-C perhaps....

mutley, what do you mean "they keep screwing things up"? screw up bad or just little things?

nick, I signed up a week ago or so. So far they haven't activated my requested mail adresses. They also have randomly changed some TLDs on my domains and spelled one wrong. Nothing much, but irritating. Sure they are fast and cheap, and you get what you pay for...

I have an account with Strictly and will probably be shutting it down.

Four times in ONE WEEK, their server ran out of disk space. The /usr filesystem was 100% full. Of course, no one answers their phone so you have to send email.

My whole Scorpion DB got corrupted, and I couldn't even copy the backup into place because the filesystem was full.

This happened 4 times in one week. Pure bullshit. My server at ServInt couldn't be better. It's been up for 29 days straight and when I call, I get a live person who is eager to help.

just my 2 cents.

Why not get a script that only use CPU for loading html / graphics.... Like Traffic Trade... Then you can run if from free hosts if you wanted :-)
You can also move from one server to another or switch domain as fast as you can write the new domain name :-)
