After almost 2 years as a customer at Communitech.net (CT), they have locked me out of their message board. My account is set to expire on the 26th or November.

I posted a message to a thread the other day that was started by resellers who had resold accounts suspended without warning due to a run away script. They couldn't believe that CT would do that and not simply disable the script and warn the customer.

I simply stated that CT would not change that policy and if they wanted a web host that did not do that, they would have to leave like I did.

I attempted to access the board this evening (it's directory is password protected) and my logon information had been deleted.

I didn't bad mouth them...I simply stated a fact - CT isn't gonna change. Their policy is to suspend first, ask questions later.

So you can add me to the list of long time customers that would suggest my worst enemy try their services.

Seems rather childish of them to lock someone out because of that, but ive heard of alot of hosts doing that.

Now why does that not surprise me in view of recent articles and events concerning CT.....

Unfortunately, all too many hosts are like bratty children throwing temper tantrums. They shut down even business accounts with no warning if you complain about the poor service and a multitude of other invalid reasons and unbusinesslike behavior.

As much as I despise the unecessary and petty litigation that goes on in the U.S., I think a massive law suit with heavy punitive damages is called for to teach some of these businenesses that it is high time they started acting like a business and that they can't close sites on a whim or tempter tantrum.

Hit them where it hurts, financially. That just might put the scare into most of the rest to shape up and put some adults in charge.

Really nice how they do things over there. I'll never recommend them.

Hehe.. if they only knew the Chicken was after them!
