JWJ, I'm curious. Why don't you start up a new gamehosting/webhosting company? You have previous experience.

I am. Unfortunately I'll have to survive without any sort of salary and having to pay my apartment lease, but I'll be starting up a new company for sure.

Game hosting and web hosting? Or Just game hosting?
[QUOTE=Caesar;30525267]I'm glad somebody made this thread, because I need to vent my feelings on this company also.
Brohoster completely messed up my Garry's Mod server hosting. Both of my fairly popular servers have been completely unusable for almost 2 months now, and I'm still waiting for a refund. I usually have to wait at least 3-5 days for a simple reply to tickets, and this week in fact, my support ticket (the same one that I opened over a month ago asking for a refund which I still have not received) was actually automatically closed because nobody replied to it within 168 hours. I don't blame this on JWJ's departure, because to be honest, I never found him particularly helpful in support tickets.
I would not recommend them to anyone based on my experience. I actually have doubts if the people who rated brohoster highly [URL="http://www.gsprating.com/brohoster-llc/"]on this website[/URL] are using the same host as I use(d). Honestly, I think most of those very positive ratings are done by employees. I've no evidence on that other than my own opinion, though.
Their slogan is quite ironic, as "screwed like a ho" is exactly how I feel I've been treated.[/QUOTE]
JWJ said somewhere that their billing support guy had some life threatening condition.

I'm best with gameserver hosting but I might be able to offer webhosting too.
What the shit, that's fucked up.

Well, good luck. Hope you don't die from malnutrition or become homeless while trying to start up the company because some asshole screwed you out of your lively hood. :razz:

Nice to see you're going to sell my company for that much, you greedy little cunt. Also nice to know you fired your best (highest paid) technician too (Andrew, my right hand man).[/QUOTE]
Wow... I am actually surprised.
Way to communicate Matt...
Wow. This takes the definition of an asshole to a whole new level.

Wait, he didn't even tell the employees?
Holy crap - first he cuts the main man and then jumps ship himself.. What a cock.
[QUOTE=JWJ;30544597]Wait, he didn't even tell the employees?[/QUOTE]
This is actually the first I've seen/heard of it.
I logged on today to be greeted with Andrew asking if I knew why all of his accounts were gone which I didn't, I do now though as he's told me.
JWJ, I can't believe that after you built the company from the ground up and the asshole fires you and tries to sell the company for half a million dollars.
I hope you become successful again and start up another great company away from that ass.

I've spoke to Matt and he's going to try to put in the contract that all staff remain.

I wouldn't take that guys word after all of this. Especially when he uses the word, "try."

"try"
lmao
he's already selling the company for way too much, why would any buyer also want extra staff to pay?

Really don't know anymore. Everybody get ready for the burial :(
I'm hearing from the lines that the billing manager I hired (aka one of Matthew's best friends) is now high up in the company too.. Funny that.
(aka Mt. Nick above me)
The ball is rolling now the IRC has picked it up, should spread pretty quickly now. Bye Brohoster!

Burial time yet?
The funny joke is that a lot of brohosters customers are from here, and everyone is taking jwjs side, so bye bye new brohoster, no longer the bro of hosting

He was fired because he spent the past week not doing his job, simply refusing to do so half the time.
I'm also selling the company because I'm sick of cleaning up after YOUR messes that YOU left behind.

Seems you caused bigger messes than I ever did. I never once caused the sales to drop by 75% or caused the company to lose hundreds of servers in the timespan of a couple of weeks. The most I did was tell people to post reviews in exchange for upgrades. If you didn't want to deal with my messes, you should've let me stay at the company and handle them.

Yeah, nice try putting all the blame on him when you are the one selling everything.
[QUOTE=JWJ;30543846]I won't need to. Once the client base of Brohoster finds out he's trying to sell Brohoster and that he fired the best technician for no apparent reason, his client base will up and go in a heartbeat. At least he had the liability excuses to use against me.[/QUOTE]
no they won't
but i'm definitely not renewing my server for various reasons, and now this? haha, nope
