Doesn't make sense. That's like going to court with nothing trying to win a case giving "I don't know" answers.
Domains and IP's have history as you already know. Even if I don't give a domain, I can show evidence that my work involved dealing with a specific host.
Again, has nothing to do with me and our usual battles, but like the other thread, if someone asks your opinion and you feel like company A is a good fit for someone, why not follow through to show that you support company A instead of having it deleted and complaining about it. You wouldn't support company A if you felt something was wrong with it....unless there are some other political reasons.

I can easily find a domain hosted with a host and the IP, I can say I am associated with the domain. It proves nothing.
The other thread? You mean the one where you insinuated that offering unlimited space and transfer is unethical and I said that many hosts become involved in unethical business practices, like pretending to be bigger hosts by using the words "us" and "we" instead of "I" and "me"? You could have just admitted there is truth to that statement but instead, decided to derail the thread because you are paranoid.

Your right, although if they were to contact the domain owner or host about you and they never heard of you.... I don't know what they do to verify the info, so I will leave it at that.
Yes, that thread. But of course you missed the point and in that thread and in this one...even though in this one two other people said the same thing.
Done

Curious, what date was this email sent on, and to whom? I keep fairly good email records & would like to investigate: I'm not seeing anything to my account received since Feb. 2012 and forward from downtownhost. Anything I receive regarding hostjury I forward onto feedback [@] hostjury.com -- where it's received by the current owner.

It certainly is. Though I'm gonna have to let someone else eat my popcorn for me. I have a tooth that for some reason the darn seed/seeds from some of the popcorn always wants to hit that painful tooth. lol
Until I can get that stupid tooth pulled out I'm gonna need a volunteer to eat my popcorn for me during this thread. Anyone up for it?

By the way, not sure why you are trying to deny this because the contact was done from that email address but filling a form of our site and using your name. Unless the "current owner" signup to our affiliate program under your name "David Mckendrick" with a paypal email address david [at] ***fusedonline.com or same name with paypal email address ***3less [at] ***3less.com
Both domains registered under your name
"Hi
When I tried to log-in I am getting a message that my affiliate account is marked as inactive. Is this by happen-chance or by design?
Thanks
David
"
What a liar.Last edited by Jedito; 03-28-2013 at 09:24 PM.

Fun fact: Many people can share the same name Jedito. It's often also the case where parents will allocate their name to their children. David (my father) & I are very different people -- he runs hostjury and I run fused & very separate. He has an affiliate account in my system and nets fairly consistent affiliate kickbacks, as he does with most hosts on his list. Both of us have very extremely different ways of running businesses & that's ultimately why we split the two up and went our separate ways many moons ago.
I imagine I could explain this for months on end and you'd still have trouble understanding it. The current ownership of hostjury & fused are entirely separate -- separate taxes, separate ownership -- and have been ~3,000+ miles apart for ~7+ years at this point. I do not, and did not have time to dedicate my resources to running both entities properly. I had the option of either operating hostjury full-time, or fused. I chose the latter.
I understand you're still frustrated that when I operated hostjury years ago, I removed reviews that your web designer (that you paid to design your current site) had posted & you can continue to reserve that right to remain angry for as long as you see fit. I don't see you calling out the hosting providers I worked for during those years (hostingplex, powervps/defender hosting, hostgator & a few others I can barely recollect) -- none of which had any bias or benefit from me operating the site at the time & in that same way: Neither did fused.
Anywhom: Stay angry -- it helps distract you from your business & allows me to continue to migrate your customerbase over to my servers one by one. It might suit you well to figure out why those clients are leaving the negative reviews and fix that instead of slinging nigh-decade old rocks on webhostingtalk.

Is fun how you still try to hide your deshonestity besides that example of a customer who still pay his bill to us over and over, forgetting (indeed, lying as always) the fact that you removed other positive reviews of other customers, I remember another guy from Argentina (Federico) who still is our customer to whom you removed positive reviews too, or Amy, you removed too, you added it back after that she complained here. I can see that's a patern of you about this, removing positive reviews and leaving bad (even fake) reviews.

And at the end, ran by you or your father, the deshonestity of the site doesn't change, hostjury is still a joke.Last edited by Jedito; 03-31-2013 at 08:58 PM.

This just in: David is an *******, and has been an ******* the entire time he's been here.
Glad to see nothing has changed.

I'm uncertain you see the irony in citing three other hosting review sites owned by competing hosting providers -- but I must say it got a giggle out of me
I suspect I'm not the only company owner who has stepped on a few toes, booted a few clients (cpu overusage, attracting attacks, spamming, badgering teammates.) and got a few negative reviews. Par for the course of operating a company but that's the nature of any industry.
In the meantime enjoy your day Jorge.

And, that's the fun part: only the user on designertalk was a legitimate client (one removed for spiking cpu usage -- at an unreasonably hour as well ).
The remainder are all fake (or posted under fake names) and I can only assume are posted by a particular competitor. I think that's what makes hostjury a great site: unlike some of the others you cited there is an actual reasonably prompt removal process for fake reviews that allows hosting providers to get slander/false information removed.
