Fatty's getting a bit blustered by the fact that (rightly) everybody loathes him. Let's see him squirm out of this one (squirm is hyperbole/sarcasm, somebody as fat as him couldn't squirm anywhere. Probably for the best)[/QUOTE]
fat squirms if you oil it up and apply pressure
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;30555098]Matt is hiding Episode 3 inside of his fat stomach?[/QUOTE]
Gabe gave ownership of Valve to Matt, Matt fires Gabe and all the best employees and sells Valve to Activision. And he's fat.

I'm literally imagining Matt being oiled up by two chinese ladies, saying [I]"Hurry up, girls, or you'll be in trouble."[/I]

Steam shuts down the next day, all of your precious games are gone. No warning was issued.
I'm off for the night. Good night everyone. It's been an eventful day for sure.
[QUOTE=CheeseMan;30555073]They weren't until the fourth-fifth page. It was a p. level playing field to begin with, you're literally just upset because your server will go down, which is a shame but it was going to fucking go down anyway, either due to people leaving Brohoster (which would have happened due to this thread or not) or Brohoster becoming increasingly bad (and being blamed in JWJ some more). And you call us selfish.[/QUOTE]
How would it have gone down anyway? He was selling it to keep it alive, was he not? He said that it WOULD have been shut down if he didn't sell it.
I'm just reading his posts. I'm not speculating, and I'm not jumping to conclusions. And don't even sit there and act like I'm being selfish. I'm thinking about the other people just as much as me. If I was really just "selfish" I wouldn't pay for a damn server at all. I have other people that play on my server and I want them to have a good time.
All I see are people flinging shit in this thread.
hey JWJ, i'd happily do some web design for free for your new company when it gets up and running.

Telling people how to get their EPP code so they transfer their domain is totally shit flinging.
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;30555090]Your server was fucked to begin with without Facepunch's involvement. At least you can be decently informed about it now.[/QUOTE]
what?
Informing people of Matt's dumb actions is also shit flinging.

Yeah lets take everything I say literally. Come on.
[QUOTE=T2L_Goose;30555236]what?[/QUOTE]
Did you hear about BH being on the verge of shutting down beforehand?
Wow, lots of internet drama. When it comes to web hosts, there are a lot of fish in the sea.. time to move on to better things, no?
So T2L_Goose, I am not allowed to be unhappy about my bought service, because it will cause trouble for your stupid Minecraft server?
Yeah you're right Matt sucks whatever. Carry on guys.
[QUOTE=AGMadsAG;30555340]So T2L_Goose, I am not allowed to be unhappy about my bought service, because it will cause trouble for your stupid Minecraft server?[/QUOTE]
I bought the service too. I just see no reason, as a customer, to be angry right now.

Except not all fish in the sea are reliable.

Because without warning, your server is going to be shut down on monday.

let's sum this up:
matt is profiting hugely off of the work that JWJ and others put in place. He intentionally fired JWJ and forcefully took rights for things so he could officially have the capacity to sell them- just before turning around and selling the company, so no one of any original value to the company could deny him the notion.
He then shows up here to state JWJ and the other guy (sorry keep forgetting names) were lacking in performance, despite the most dedicated people in the company. He also starts swearing over the phone at JWJ, threatening legal action against him and EddyTT for shit like NDA agreements and (redundant) recording clauses and the like.
I think the big concern here is the money and legal battle, not necessarily the servers. How exactly is selling a company that has only 4k clients for 500k going to save it? Where is the money going if someone else buys it from him, because as far as I can tell he was looking to sell and run so someone else could deal with what was apparently already a dangerously low business income.

When it comes to Minecraft hosting, there [i]was[/i] nothing comparable to Brohoster.
[B]Matt. A (fan?)fiction by Cheeseydoodles.[/B]
[B]Part 1.[/B] Trials and Tribulations.
Matt glared at the screen. He shook his head violently, causing his grease-lathered ponytail to slap against his neck resoundingly. A cacophony of oil and the lack of showering, and he was the conductor. He didn't stop shaking his head as he slammed his meaty fists onto his (relatively dated but otherwise decent) keyboard. His glare successfully contained the hatred of a scorned deity, set on destroying their former creations through whatever method possible. The only problem is, this particular god only had the power of dangerously unhealthy weight. His white, pursed lips , and soon his mouth burst open, as if Moses had parted them through another (more tangible and powerful) god's aid. And what came out of those lips was nothing short of a speech that paralleled Nostradamus. For years to come people would regret not hearing it.

As his enraged diatrabe reached a climax, the sound he made increased to a shrieking, then suddenly stopped. He panted, face lying on his keyboard, effectively ruining the message he was typing to try and redeem himself [I]("JWJ has ruined this company from the start")[/I]. His eyes hardened, became solemn. He looked over to the drawer next to his desk. His hand, in a surprising act of agility and dexterity, darted to the handle and ripped the drawer open. Hundreds of cardboard figures sailed through the air and landed on the floor. Matt cursed himself under his breath and quickly collected them, and then placed them in a uniform line, all pointing towards the screen. All the cardboard figures were pictures of men in suits he had printed onto cardboard and cut out, with toothpicks as supports. He pointed at the screen, smiling with malign intent.

Apart from Matt trying to keep this under his hat without telling you. Also the fact that there is a good chance that by 10AM Monday morning, Brohoster will be shut down.
All of this without warning.

Thank you.
This is all I was looking for, guys.

Oh yeah, I should totally just accept, that my shared hosting plan hasn't been working for months.
How can i NOT be angry right now? When Matt is fucking over the guys and brohoster, that i originally put my money in?

zuckerberg is the white guy
[QUOTE=JWJ;30553572]fyi their CEO just up and disappeared a couple of weeks ago and fired all of their employees, so you're more or less in the same boat as brohoster clients[/QUOTE]
Umm, I have been talking to a few of them in a chunk loading ticket as recent as 6/18/11 9:32 AM.
