Those 36 hours that we're credited with are from some guy who didn't pay his bills. Yes Choker, when someone doesn't pay their bills, we cut them off whether they're running your downtime script or not. Now because we're running our business properly, we get "check marks" from you.

I now have pissed off clients and questionable potential clients because of your "helpful" site. You're damaging my business because of false information represented by you.

Here's a scenario for you: say I buy some traffic from you, straight United States traffic (this is hypothetical, I don't know your regional restrictions.) Traffic starts coming to my galleries and I notice some Chinese traffic coming in to (some Chinese site took my gallery and I didn't notice it) my gallery. Now I'm pissed off because I think you're sending me Chinese traffic. I build a quick site to rate the various traffic brokers I buy from. Right next to your link I put a big fat notice "SENDS CHINESE TRAFFIC". I proceed to show all my friends. You lose business and current clients.

How happy would you be?
One other thing... I believe there are 3 "Choker monitoring scripts" throughout our network of 400+ servers. And 2 of those scripts are from the same guy, the guy that we cut off.

Now somebody please explain to me how Choker's setup could possibly display an accurate representation of "uptime"...
