We also have the typical "GoDaddy Sucks" responses. BUT, aside from one event detailed by CurrentlySober, no one else has said or shown anything to back up their stance to not use GoDaddy.

Sure, some people have said "search the board." I will admit that I didn't search, but in the 4+ years that I've been on here, I see mostly just "GoDaddy Sucks," and "only newbs use GoDaddy." Hardly everyone ever backs up their opinion with legitimate reasons. If you're going to ridicule someone for using a company for hosting, give legitimate reasons. Otherwise simply state that it's your opinion that you just don't like them. Just because it's not right for you doesn't mean it's not right for others. Otherwise, post some info to back up your "GoDaddy Sucks" claims.

It's funny, because when someone asks about other hosts, people share their stories. I've seen both good and bad for HostGator, and details backing up both sides. But I never see that with GoDaddy. It's like it's "status quo" to not use GoDaddy around here. No real reasons (aside from CurrentlySober), it's just "not cool." It's kind of retarded. If a bunch of you GoDaddy haters actually provide some real reason, that I'll change my view that it's just not the "cool" thing to do. Until then, I'll continue to think that the stigma of GoDaddy on here is just because it's not what the "cool guys" or "ballers" use.

BTW, when I shoot stills, I've been using a SONY camera for years. OMFG, it's not a Canon or Nikon! Blacklist me!
