249 for 200 gig bandwidth what the fuck?

i am paying 250$ a month right now for my 20mbps dedicated

Well, the insults and humor may be as unimaginative as usual. But it's always good to see how true professionals handle themselves and this thread has a surreal element which is refreshing.

Is someone going to let the rest of us in on exactly what sparked this off? I didn't think jay was down on his post-count this month...

Still growing

You have to show me a program that does not mail out their own lists ;)

baddogs business is based on finding clueless noobs and setting them up with his elite "seo hosting" :1orglaugh

Cute cats! :)

Interesting.

Baddog earned his nickname young...

:D

hmmm GFy drama is entertaining

You mean, you've heard about these metatag thingies too? I wonder if they will work? Your thoughts on this matter will be greatly appreciated.

NICE, where are you getting that price from?

This thread is useless lol...

... without pics? It has pics though! Heh..

Matt

Whats the beef here? I always miss out on the excitment

Fake drama?

cogent bandwidth :thumbsup

LOL - I can't say I agree with anything your are saying is redeeming about baddog. I thought it was kind of funny you jumped in probably an hour after we mailed for you guys.

There are other programs that convert better for us, but becasue Nadar, Chris, and I are friends -- we hook you up.

We wouldn't cut your traffic - I was just kidding. :)

Well, like you... I know when to step lightly and not jeopardize a good business relationship, but at the same time, I do speak up for friends.

I consider baddog a friend... and I know if I was raggin on someone that you considered a friend, you'd step up and vouch for him/her.

Feelings tell you to do what's right even when logic might be telling you otherwise :thumbsup

That could be why everything he touches turns out to be a massive failure. Well that, and his grade school education. If I'm wrong, name one thing he's done in the past that is still around and successful.

www.contentshopper.com and www.pimpspromo.com are 2 examples.

do you have to stick your fucking nose everywhere? FO.

nice looking cock, could be a little wider though

Let us all hope that defending a friend is looked upon as a courageous act of friendship and loyalty, and not a reason to be shot down in flames in an act of pettiness.

Well he's a very stupid man, which is cool, but the problem is he thinks he's smarter than other people and he says it. It's funny at first, but when you realize he's serious, it's pathetic. However I'd say the main reason most people hate him is, every couple of months he comes out with or is working for some new bullshit program, and they're always aimed at making short term profits by taking advantage of the stupidity of newbies. Look at his new hosting for example. He's never offering anything of value that anyone with a clue would use, it's always designed to basically rip off stupid newbies. Some people frown on that kind of business practice.

Nice cock.

That is one big pussy! :winkwink:

UPDATE: Thread is currently a three pager.

i thought everyone in california was a hippie?

wheres all the peace and love?

Jay I had no idea that you got convicted of stealing that apple.

Anf how were you to know that it was solid gold.

Ok, so my story is off, but what does your past have to do with your present? Never understood that.

That's one of the gayest things I've ever read one man write to another ... :1orglaugh

woj is sleeping for sure

woj never sleeps

LOL, I love those cats :1orglaugh

Hey Rich, this is none of my business, but considering you are poking your nose into something that is obviously none of yours, what the hell, Ill ask anyway.

You act like you have a personal beef with Baddog. Its very apparent you have a shared interest in Jays vendetta, and I am curious to know why.

I explained the reasons in the post you quoted. He's stupid, and thinks he's smarter than others, and his entire career is based on fly by night programs designed to take advantage of newbs. It bothers me. The guy's a fucking clown shoe, that's all there is to it.

First of all, those are fairly new, neither more than a year and a half old. Second, they're extremely far from successful, and as I said, designed for newbs who don't know any better. Does anyone here who's a serious, known webmaster ever use either of those two "services"? Didn't think so.

I like Lloyd because he never lies and he makes people prove their points.

Well I suppose this is what I get for taking a couple hour lunch today.

The few times that I've met Baddog he's been a gentleman, good for conversation and it's obvious that he works hard at what he does. I saw the thread where he thanked NatNet for their hospitality the other day and I'm sure it was well deserved. It's obvious that humility is one of his finer qualities although it doesn't seem yet to be one of yours. NatNet is tremendously hospitable to our industry and they're a fine group that does an excellent job with hosting... and hell, NOBODY throws a party like them!

I've got a whole bunch of respect and thanks out there to NatNet. Want to pick a fight with me?

Poking fun at his business model? Come on. It's about the customer, silly. At my hosting company just as at every one of my competitors we all get requests from clients that are looking for large or diverse IP assignments. What they do with them is their business and I'm not to be the judge of that unless they are doing something abusive in which case I would make that my business.

To suggest that he's praying on newBs is rediculous! Of all the clients that I have who have unique requirements for their IP space the vast majority of them are veterans. I am sure they would like this thread because as far as they are concerned, the less people doing what they are doing furthers their opportunity.

We had a chat in San Diego about GotWebHost and I thought the idea was teriffic. Some clients like to be spread out across multiple providers, data centers, C blocks, etc and it seems his product is capable of doing that. To suggest that he's not a real hosting company is absurd. If they are supporting and maintaining their clients at multiple colocation facilities all the more power to them! That is a big undertaking. If I had a client whose needs were exactly that and we couldn't provide a solution I would gladly refer them over. Is the business brilliant by design, will it be around for the long run? Only time will tell! I hope for his sake that it is a tremendous success. If he works hard, smart and does right by his clients then there is no reason why he won't have his place long term with his niche product.

My point? Well, we haven't done business yet but I think Baddog seems to be a good person that is committed to his clients and his own business. Having multiple businesses and revenue streams isn't a crime, it's one of the best qualities that entrepreneurs possess.

This thread is mean-spirited (unless I'm missing some impetus for it) and lacking any real substance.. It seems to only be accomplishing the goal of providing you with some visibility and most likely him with some new business. If you don't like him, this was a bad thread to start! LOL

It's not the people that post in GFY threads that are always the ever important ones... there is a silent majority that watches and makes their own decisions as the flighty ones eat each other alive.

Cheers,

Brad

hey - that's MY job
