You know they both say "I like rackshack" right? Also I think this topic has been beaten to death a million times..

Looks like he's joking around, but with all the RackShack threads lately, it's hard to tell. :(

woooo go blue go blue.
heh i dont see that robert owning the forum will change much. ive seen how his head works, he sees a bad post on his forum and he writes a polite and professional reply, not delete it. the man understands that he only has to delete one post to loose all cred whatsoever, whereas he can write a nice reply and stand his ground and gain respect. the changes he is making are justifiable, you may disagree with the decision but you gotta agree there is a reason and its not egomania.
yours on the fence ;)

Cant really hold that against Rackshack, people choose to come here and rant or rave about Rackshack on their own free will, which brings lots of other posts good & bad. I personally find complaining about a host everytime something happens to be in bad form, posting about them should be to share experiences, not to just slam them every time the opportunity presents itself. :confused:

Kinda the 'heads on both sides' coin. OT: Anyone know where I can get one of those double heads coins? I want to use it at school so I can say, "Ok kids, if it is tails we will go to lunch early! Awwww shucks, it's heads!"

*Thread has little point anyway, so I was hoping no one would mind a little OT question

The numerous RS threads don't surprise me, combine a large ded server company, the specials they've been running recently, non-perfect track record/support, and the purchase of WHT, it's to be expected.

I haven't been around for a while, so I haven't seen much talk about rs.

I kinda feel two ways about it. Sometimes, they are the best and sometimes they are the worst. But I gotta say that they are the cheapest for dedicated servers.

However they do make it extremely difficult (or impossible) to change ownership of a server.

I've got a RaQ 4i with them and now I want the Ensim but I can't transfer ownership. I have to cancel the server and buy another one from them (it also means that they'll prob sell the server I'm on and charge another setup fee).

Gosh, I think they must be making millions from this!

So I'm sticking with the RaQ despite it's horrible control panel.

Chicken, are you a teacher? From what I picture, you look a little like Bill Gates ;)

It'd be funny if the kids said they wanted heads instead of tails. What are you going to do if they did that? I guess you could spend time arguing with them :D

Those little two sided coins aren't cheap! I'm thinking of using some glue on two actual quarters. Third graders, I might get away with it, heh.

Ohhh and yes, I've removed one post (and edited posts quoting it), that was far beyond the, "I have this problem..." -some of you saw it.

My old teacher had one of those two-sided coins, it always seemed to come out when it was time to figure out if we had a quiz that day.

Ohhh I could get a lot of milage off of it, so the 10 bucks (with shipping) would still be worth it. Most say, "Tails never fails" (something I can't recall saying when I was a wee egg), and their strong point isn't probability. Works in my favor :D

With your post history, my 4 year old sister would have a little more credability then you at this point. I'd say no offense meant, but i can't think of any way that wouldn't be offensive to people, but you've earned your reputation, noone stuck it onto you.

I personally think RS is something that the BBB should have on their radar, but hey I'm biased as I got the shaft, and had to get the credit card company involved to get my money back eh...

Porky. You should have a bit more respect for those that post on this forum, and stop kissing the ass of a peddler. Being a Canadian myself I thought you would have more self respect then to defend the wrongs of every new friend, and stick to the facts as we are known to do in this great country of ours eh.:rolleyes:
