    No 'technically' about it. Tim isn't a big fish of any flavor, in any pond. As for cult status and people wishing to associate with with... that has to be the most insane thing I think I've seen typed on this forum in the more than two years I've been here

    I think most businesses would be happy to print out Tim's resume if it ended up in their inbox, just so they could burn it.

    I don't usually take a swipe at people but Tim has single handedly reduced the reputation of the hosting industry via this forum a great deal lately. While WHT is a speck in the ocean of the internet, there are a lot of people who come through here. If they were jaded before, Tim and the other snake oil sellers around here have certainly convinced them the whole industry is full of sharks and liers.

    Not to wish bad fortune on anyone, but if Tim and his 'ilk' tripped down a set of stairs tomorrow, I don't think I'd shed too many tears.

    I'm flattered... But I still stick to my post. Even though Travis has lied on this board and his shady dealings with Tim leave lots to be desired, I also need to add another part to the grand equation; which is that I've known him for a very long time, before he even started in the hosting business. It's typical of Travis to want, I said WANT... everyone to congratulate him because he's so young and running such a successful business, that he's making the right mature decisions for someone his age and so on. Taking over EarHost could simple be another expansion of his ego boosting trip that he desperately needs. Who knows?

    Besides, Tim has no real capital to invest in a business, no tangible assets (e.g. servers), he doesn't have design skills, and his reputation is far from being angellic. Why else would you want to associate with him, apart from to get into the limelight eh?
