[/list][/quote]Anything else I should add?
Have fun trying to sell the company after this PR nightmare, win thread.
[QUOTE=CU-MattR;30549291]Brohoster was run a month behind on Softlayer bills because Jacob ran with company funds. Jacob is acting like a child. I'm selling the company because if I don't it'll end up shutting down.
The only reason I'm selling it is to keep it alive. Had I not put it up for sale, it would have been shut down at 10am GMT -5 Monday morning.
We've already filed police reports and had our lawyers start on legal proceedings against Jacob and Edward.
The end.[/QUOTE]
Imma go get a couple of beers to share with the poor officers that have to waste their time. Maybe I'll even invite a member of both political parties and share a few laughs. The only thing that is ending is your (my) company.

By the time someone gets an offer half of his client base will be gone. Or at least, they will have attempted to leave.

I really want to end my server with brohoster but I have nowhere to go. I know JWJ is starting his own thing but I've got no idea if/when that will be.

There have been posts showing where you can go. But if your just doing web hosting, really any host that is in your price range that has good reviews will be good enough.

That's right man, don't take the insults.No one can harm the greatest bros around.

It's a minecraft server, which is why I'm not too sure about where to go. That's why I had gone with brohoster in the first place.
Someone should have banned CU-MattR at the start of this thread, it would have been the best thing that ever could have happened to his professional career. I've read through this thread and this must be the worst most unprofessional approach to a business problem. This is just a blame(flame) war between a lot of upset employees and ex-employees. Say no more, form a press release, stop blaming people on a public forum and find a solution.

Fuckity fuck fuck
[editline]18th June 2011[/editline]
did I mention fuck?
I wake up this morning to see my thread has 500 new posts and shat my pants.
Just finished reading them all, holy shit.
What the fuck is this shit. I'm at work and I'm hearing that brohoster is going out of business, but I'm not seeing any official statements from the company itself. All I see is rumors and anger because jwj was fired. And from what I heard, their reasons for doing so were just. Can someone PROFESSIONALLY Explain what the hell is going on?
Oh shit fuck

As if they would listen to me anyway :v:. It's more about getting people to know about it than anything.

The solution!
The whole issue with firing JWJ doesn't make sense to me. They fired him and then went on to say that he requested to leave the company?

They wouldn't do anything anyway. Seriously though, just get the message out about them. I don't want brohoster to get hacked all my details are on there (as proven by reag a while ago thx)

He was 'asked to leave', which is just a polite way of telling someone to fuck off.
He was terminated.
I was let go.
