Again, you can thank WestHost.com, our ISP. More corruption... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

WestHost.com doesn't seem to have any problems with their own website - who's suprised... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

Yeah, I'm getting a little *warm* over this entire web site debacle. It started the Sunday after the Reunion, so we suffered through 3 weeks of this BS. For what we pay, this shouldn't have been but a minor patch it up and go deal...reckon we'll get a refund? Hardly...

I hate to do this, but I'm gonna stoop down a little. Here's who our ISP is, and is the reason everything from this month's feature car to the forum is screwed up:

And here is JUST ONE of the trouble threads taking place on WestHost's own forum (you should note it's 42 pages as I type this):

We're not the only ones having trouble, but in my opinion they've dropped the ball on the customer service part of the deal. I realize stuff happens in the computer world, and I've spent many a late nights reading code looking for a missing ";" or 1 too many "." in several pages of software. But, you do it, and you move on. Sadly, we're stuck...

From a business point of view, this is completely unacceptable and could almost run a small company out of business if they relied heavily on their website for orders or sales. It appears they had no idea what kind of "upgrade" they were getting into and what affect it would have on their clients. Not only should their clients receive a refund for the time it was not operating properly, but they should receive a free month of service just to stay as customers. Hopefully they can get this fixed soon, but I have my doubts at this point in time.

FYI,"Ham" is hardly obsolete... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img] It is the only means of communication in times of disaster.Most weather stations use it for field reports in times of severe weather.One such group is Skywarn.It may not be as popular as it once was,but most public service events and functions require some type of "net control" to keep things organized and running smoothly.I have worked with the American Red Cross Disaster for years providing commincations in times of need.....
