just a query, but do you have any traceroutes to put forward on this board to show their downtime, they would be useful for future clients considering them. (or not as the case may be)

also ping results of lagged connections and packet loss would be good.

also anything to show the lack of support from them, i know this is probably private but if there is anything you can supply, their responses etc... it would be good to see.

Thanks :)

Don't know if anyone from duploweb hangs out around here. But I've seen the 9kd dude walking around.

But, back to duploweb. I too have fallen victim to their smooth talk and billowy eyes;{

Sure. . . I'd love to kick their #@$! ! !

I'll email ya and see what ya got in mind. . . . .





Thanks for listening

As for 9kd........

9kd.net Shut Down.

Date of shut down: June 30, 2002


For all the people who have signed up before June 27, 2001, we will continue to host your site(s) until June 30, 2002.
If your accounts have not been activated yet, it will be activated soon. We have to check instabill accounts manually because some new sales e-mails haven't been sent to us, and we did not know that you have signed up with our service. This service was never a scam or a fraud!
All of your payment database has been deleted. This means that you won't be charged next year.

We're very sorry for this. We hoped it did not have to come to this, but we have lost all the money and are still losing money now.
To the person who owned a hosting company and signed up intentionally to use over 50 GB of bandwidth per day, please do not abuse another new web hosting business.

We are now down to 2 support tech because we can't pay the other 2. We will still provide support until June 30, 2002.

We only provide 1 MySQL account from now on. However, each of your sub-domain can has a MySQL database of its own. All you have to do is request it here: support@9kd.net.

We would greatly appreciate it if you would request 2 or less Sub-domains per day from now on.


Thank you for using our hosting service.

Yes! I'm here and with you!! And very very happily with you. :D

I have lots of emails sent to them (no reply) and their webpages saved from their website before... it died (today).

Pleased to meet you Helper Ant and, by the way, stay away from this thread: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=13837. They might kill you!!! :D :D

(my last comment has to do with ants, not with duploweb, by the way)

I feel sorry for the customers of hosting companies that are shutting down because they offer more than they can afford (ie. 10GB of transfer for $20/year). Because being hosted by a company that is "dead" is not the same as being hosted with a company that is "alive" and growing :( But i remember a while ago when several members of this board suggested to 9kd.net that they should not offer more than they can chew :rolleyes:

Jona is the nickname of someone who -some time ago- was promoting Duploweb.
