Well, it's late... I'm tired... let's do something fun! :)

I'll give away 5 free hosting accounts for WHT readers.

Do not email me or PM telling me you want one. Just each person (1 account per person) post here and say you want it... that way once five people reply the rest will know whether the offer is still valid.

You'll get hosting for 1 yr. with the following specs free:
100 megs storage
1 gig bandwidth
10 pop3 email accounts
1 mysql database
only 1 domain
5 subdomains
hosted on a Raq4

bandwidth over 1 gig is $2/gig (no partial gigs).

no setup fee.

It would be nice to have a button or banner or just a simple text link back to us, but it is NOT required. I won't ask directly. If you like the service and appreciate the free account and want to put the link then great. If you don't want to put a link then no problem too.

No adult content (I do accept legal adult hosting but not for these free accounts). It's not likely that a successful adult site would need just 1 gig bw anyway.

i want 1 :D

Me too!

Count me in :)

*waves his hand*

Me too!!!

It looks like rastoma has 5 new friends!

Funny, just yesterday I was telling my wife that *sometimes* it really does pay to stay up late at night (and not just so I can be awake to chase out burglars, or take down plate numbers of cars that run into our yard, hit a tree, and take off)! :D

Many thanks, myvirtualnet!

Aw, am I too late? :( Should have read this board first...

Yep, the 'ol being in the right place at the right time :)

A most generous offer, and congrats to the lucky few.


Lats...

Wow! That was fast.... took just an hour! And I thought no one would see it until today sometime :)

I'll be emailing or pm'ing the 5 shortly.

Sigh... Guess I'll have to wait until next time someone posts a free for a year offer... :(

:P

Maybe Chicken should kick in a little bit of cash for freehosting deals, given how many members it tends to generate ;).

I appreciate everyone else who has interest in my service and has been contacting me but this was just FIVE accounts I decided to give away... It was just a promotion.... I don't give out free accounts every day. If I'm able to do it again I'll post it here. In the meantime if any wants to email me or PM me I sure don't mind :) But please stop being disappointed because I'm not giving out any more free accounts right now.

Mods, please don't get upset with two posts right after each other... this offer is over so I'm not trying to push up the topic.

I've only received 3 replies from the emails I sent through WHT to the 5 people above. Since the 5 replied within one hour of each other I was have thought I would have received replies back from everyone by now. It's no problem.. I'm not in a hurry... just making sure all 5 did want their account.

And I'm sure now on everyone who is who by looking up their info here on WHT. So the two of you that hasn't received your account yet reply back on HERE (I can't verify through just an email that I don't see on file anywhere that it's really you... so don't anyone else try and sneak in and take one of the accounts :) and let me know you're still interested.

Again, no hurry..... It's there when you want/need it.

More accounts, please Rastoma :D I like you :eek:

BUT THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!! I MEAN IT!!! Compliments or not, no more for now!!!! :D

4 more accounts as listed above... one for tencongty, one for lats and and for toe.. and ONE MORE for the next person that replies.

If toe or lats doesn't want one let me know so someone else can get it.

Original terms as listed in the first email applies... accept for these last four I really want a link on your site... it can be a small text only link... or small button or banner if you have room.

Again reply that you want it and I'll contact you afterwards.

OK, I guess there's still one left? If so, can I have it? :D

Sorry spade.. I can't do any more right now. I'll be going against what I've been preaching lately and offer some low priced accounts soon so keep an eye out.

Unless one of the guys up top of this thread ends up not taking their free account then you're next in-line.

Or two? ;)
:D

If for some chance two people don't reply, can I get a free account?
:D

Just FYI, I haven't had an email from you (not complaining).

Yes..please let me know. :bawling: :bawling:

Thank you rastoma, for your kind and generous offer.

There seems to be people in greater need than myself at the moment, so I'll humbly decline.

Regards,


Lats...


p.s. Nice promotion

If you decide to run this promotion again sometime in the future, I'll be interested. :)

OK... kind of you not to waste the account if you didn't need it.

Unless I lost track, Kyle Babich was next so email me Kyle with your domain name.

Am I missing out on something?

I'm not sure what problem with email you're having.... email me at hostmaster@myvirtualnet.net with an alternative email that I can forward your account details to.

Thanks Rastoma, I was send a email to you.

If I have missed anyone's email please contact me again.. I think I have everyone setup but just want to make sure... these late hours can make it easy to miss things sometimes :)

I have emailed you, but it's taking you a long time to answer... I know my account is a "difficult" one, but at least reply to my emails!

www.tencongty.com is working, www.tencongty.com is 1 of 5 free webhosting of Rastoma

Errr, it's coming up with the default Cobalt home page :confused:


Lats...

see agian please (it is a demo)

I have replied to all of your emails Daniel.... I'm sorry that my answers don't agree with your friends's answers, but a subdomain on ******** is not a regular domain name. On these free accounts I'm using name based hosting and you cannot forward a ******** domain to a server using name based hosting. If you had a dedicated IP # or an existing domain name then you could.

If you don't have a means to pay only $9 for a year of registration for your own domain name, you can send me the money, either via postal mail or Paypal and I will register a domain for you. I'm not giving out sub-domains on any of my domains at this time.

I don't know what else to offer. If I'm wrong technically, please someone correct me.

If you need further support please correspond via email as I have answered all yours coming in (except for a repeat of what you're asking for that came in while I was typing this).

update - 2-3-02 I may have come up with a solution. I'll email you directly.

Exactly. It's not nice to ignore users...

lonesail, you do realize this thread is almost two months old, right?

Besides, he is handing out free hosting, you can't expect too much.

Peter

Hi...

I want one account

Me too please ...

:D :D :D :D

What exactly do you mean? I think if you do a search on my username you'll find out that I don't ignore users and you'll also find out that I go above and beyond standard support.

And besides replying to a 2 month old message, what is your purpose is saying something like this? You see I have something to offer that competes with you and you're going to spread seeds of negativity?

Well please by all means do that... I encourage you to. My reputation stands on it's own. It won't bother me in the least.

Well my customers, whether paid or receiving free hosting expect the highest level of support which I give. If you have read the entire thread you'll see where I answered that user.. and I had replied to every email he sent me privately within 4 hours of receiving it. He didn't like my answers I was giving him about using the free hosting account and wanting to use a cjb domain name. If I have ever missed a mail it was by mistake.. never on purpose. I treat all customers the same.. whether they have free hosting, they pay $5/month or $50/month.

Ummm.... everyone whose asking for accounts... I would like to help you, but this was an offer a couple of months ago. For some reason someone had to reply to it to try and discredit me and thus brought it to the top of the list again.


Oh what the hell.....


The two users above that has asked gets whatever I originally offered in the original message of this thread.

I'll give TWO MORE to the next two people or post HERE.. not PM or email.

And if you see two more names please don't continue to ask... as much I'd like to that's all I want to do right now.

Thanks.

Please?

And yes, ******** names can be used as name based hosting as they offer a space to put the IP to resolve to. I've hosted a few sites this way and they work just like regular domains :).

Sign Me Up !!

Ok.. that's it.... last two :)


I'll send everyone a PM with further details later today.

And now it's your job to tell everyone how wonderful I am


:D

j/k

OK, now I become the bad guy. Oh well.

Um no.. Lonesail is the bad guy not you :)

:D You didn't feel that you were a bad guy when roles were reversed, did you?

I'm glad you finally realize that's it's "bad" as well as extremely annoying when someone who has no business doing so posts messages in an old and irrelevant thread about subjects that have long since been buried and done with. Hopefully YOU're not going to do it in the future AGAIN.

In retrospect, I probably should have let it go, though. Oh, well.


P.S. You might want to ask moderators to lock this thread... ;)

How 'bout just chilling out and not getting so bent out of shape over tongue in cheek comments.

*me, me!*

heh no actually, you've inspired me a little rastoma.. i may offer a similar deal myself real soon, seems a nice thing to do :)

That's nice HostIt!

Could you please pick me ?

Rastoma did not pick me. :(

This thread is funny. Enjoyed reading every bit of it.


:D

Thanks Rastoma, my free account on your server is good worked with all your services and uptime.
