Warriors- "you are a fricken disapointment"

BOY I HEARD THIS WAS THE PLACE TO GET GOOD ADVICE... seems like i was wrong.

Here's my post asking for people with a little more experience than me to comment on. 1 person did!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some advice on choosing hosting for 3 websites. I cant decide if I should host with Hostgaters VPS or host with Amazons EC2

(here's the deal though.. I don't know anything about cloud hosting)


This is my criteria:
Each domain must have a separate ip address... don't want to share with bad ip addresses.

Must have Cpanel ... (much easier for me to load Wordpress with Fantatico.)

Would like the ability to upgrade (pay more) as sites get busier.

What do you think?

Note: I only want to have one hosting account. One of my domains will be for my pizza shop which will pay for the hosting. Which will give me the ability to build the other sites without my wife thinking I'm wasting money on this I.M crap.

Thanks Eagle2

    Many warriors spend hours giving good FREE advice...For me, I didn't happen to see your post until this one. Not sure that I like being called a "fricken disappointment", though, in just your 2nd post...

    You may want to consider also GIVING to the forum....

    ...and, with that approach, don't be surprised if you get very few responses....

    P.s. Personally, I use bluehost and namecheap for domain registration...

      Exactly, calling the whole forum a frickin disappointment is unlikely to get a great response and if you think I.M is crap why are you doing it?

      You would probably get more help by thanking the person that took time to respond to your other thread, and ask for other opinions at the same time.

      Duplicating a thread is not the way to go.

      Seems like you are demanding and answer more than asking for advice/help.

      Do you think anyone here is obligated to answer anything?

      Most people here have their business running and take time out everyday to help out other folks. But you haven't been here too long and expect that as you make a post you will have hundreds of reply and.....

      you only have 2 post. SO from that 2 post, how many persons have you helped?

      BTW, if you are looking for a reliable host, hostgator is a good choice.

      Agreed. My rule is that I help 10+ people for each question (no not like a robot, I do it ongoing since I want my posts answered immediately).

      As for your hosting, I think you may be overthinking it. I had my hosting on a shared server with go daddy until I got 80,000 to 100,000 visitors a month. It looks to me that you are still starting out or low traffice sites (5K or less a month), so I would not be concerned as these details are gonna slow you down to start.

      Cheers,
      Mukul

      PS - As for calling us a disappointment, I would let it go as I am sure that part of your character has held you back time and time again and the results show and you wonder why no one helps or why people are just not nice (just sayin...).

      There could be a good reason for that...:rolleyes:

      To the OP...if you carry over this same attitude with your customers you might as well just get out of the game right now.

      I'm not being mean here...that's actually sound advice.

      Also, the ability to do your own research is a critical skill needed for success in IM. There are a ton of threads here regarding your question and if you had looked around a little you would have found some.

      The Warriors here love giving a helping hand to folks. Holding someone's hand...not so much.

        Bill,

        The OP had made another post before this. For some reason it got deleted. I'm not sure why as this is the duplicate thread. I would have expected this one to vanish!

    Hi,

    Like soldier stated above, this place is full of very helpful people. Sometimes posts are missed, but I am sure you can find out about your cloud hosting by looking it up on google. Usually if I cannot find the answer here I just google it. Don't assume no one is out to help you just because no one responded, that was kind of rude.

    I appreciate that your "fricken disappointment" heading was probably tongue-in-cheek and that you were feeling frustrated and wanted to attract attention. You've done so - but maybe not exactly the sort of attention you wanted/expected. Your tone would have been better and more widely understood, I think, if you'd been better known in these parts yourself. Welcome.

    seriously? You are angry because a bunch of people didn't immediately jump to do your research for you?

    Based on that and that you feel the need for cpanel because it would be "much easier" for you, shows me that you might not be prepared to put in the hard work that internet marketing often entails.

    Either get prepared to do some actual work or hire someone else to do your internet marketing for you.

      Eagle2,

      You have no doubt figured out by this point that you've not helped your cause with this thread. Joining a group and then insulting them because you didn't get immediately swamped with helpful advice on your first post isn't the most socially graceful approach.

      I've mentioned this recently in another thread, but you appear to have missed it: The fastest way to self-invoke the "angry villager rule" here is to post anything that even looks like it comes from a sense of entitlement.

      We now return you to your regularly scheduled lynching...

    Ok Eagle, I do think that an apology is in order as our friend x3xsolxdierx3x has said in his post on here! I notice that you have made only 1 post in this forum and calling us other Warriors a Fricken dissapointment wont get you anywhere! In fact I think that if you carry on you will get booted out!

    My friend Patience is a virtue my advice for you and other new members on here is to be Social, helpfull, give generously without expecting anything in return and you will see that you become popular on here.

    Once that happens you will find that people will be happy to help you!

    I only see one disappointment in this thread and it happens to be you, Eagle2. If you like to stay on this forum with a good reputation (although I'm sure it's a bit too late for that), I'd say you change your attitude and fast. 'Cause, I don't know for others, but you are on my "don't do business with" list.

      I also think not even attempting to defend yourself is ruining what little you have left of a reputation. Attracting the attention of Mr Myers on your first post is not exactly clever either.

      The irony is you've just pushed away one of your best opportunities to succeed in I.M

            Maybe Rob just wanted to give thanks being that it is Sunday.

            OK, so OP, are you going to scurry off into the night never to return?

            Or, are going to issue a sincere apology and put this behind you?

              I wondered if perhaps the OP had realized how ridiculous he sounded and was reluctant to come back into the thread for more wet noodle application - so I checked to see if he was still "here" on the forum.

              This result cracked me up (look at original date on the thread)...he was currently visiting:

              http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...-help-you.html

              He can get three hosting accounts - or one reseller account (separate cpanels) - pay for extra IPs (not necessary but he seems to think so) - so what is the big problem? How much help do you need to sign up for hosting?

      I agree with Les. All these posts (mine included) is giving him what he wanted... attention. It's the equivalent of picking up the crying baby. But I suspect he's already a spoiled brat. Hopefully this thread is deleted so he doesn't get his way and maybe he can learn something.
