If they've gone out of business, couldn't part of the problem be that nobody has heard of them in the first place ... ?

Wouldn't that mean that we hadn't heard of them?

Wouldn't that make it rather difficult to name them?

;)

Just a thought.

haha.
I was just surfing ****edcompany.
They wouldnt list petty crap like webhosts.

But as the first guy said.. if they went bankrupt after not too long, odds are nobody has ever heard of em.

But visit ****edcompany for a laugh,
(Warning, its a bit crude)

FC's always an interesting site to drop past - I'd stay away from the forums there though. It's worth a chuckle the first time, but reading some of the 13 year old drivel that comes out of 'supposed' techs and business people becomes a little disturbing.

For something a little more mature about the top end of town hit up your local news agent and pick up e-Company Now magazine.

Yes, stay out of the public forums on FC unless you have a strong stomach, they are full of trolls, flamers, perverts, sickos-a surprising amount of whom are actually adults involved in high-tech and business. It's basically a game now, with arcane rules that change daily based on the whims of the great god Pud in all of his many incarnations.

Things are different in the super-secret elite forums, where hand-picked members, enjoy first class amenities and discussions of serious topics of interest to all. Or so the legend goes...
