Brohoster: Proving their Excellent Services Yet Again

[QUOTE=helpiminabox;30559960]The question is, will there be any clients to transfer by the time the "sale" takes place?[/QUOTE]
I would be since I changed the email I used to log into bro.brohoster.com :( Matt has never gotten to me about that.
He was to busy talking to his lawyers and making up lies to support his clients.
Just catched up with the thread. He's trying to give it back after having singlehandedly destroying it. Let's see who will buy this crater.
I feel for you JWJ, you're in a really vulnerable position and handling it like a champ. This thread is both saddening and reassuring proof that backstabbing and being an asshole doesn't work. Reputation is by far the most valuable asset of a business. Too bad Matt didn't realize this.

We can chop it up and sell the pieces as souvenirs.
I hope the buyer(?) is informed of the situation, I'd hate to see them buy a prominent hosting service only to find out a scandalous dilemma lost a noticeable margin of its userbase and the guys who created what it is (was) and were working the hardest keeping it afloat were fired under reasons that no one who knows their history would consider plausibly in character so you could turn and sell it.
after all, that's probably the most real call for contacting lawyers we'll have all through this, minus JWJ having grounds now to sue ya back for unlawful practice given he was lied to about not being able to sign whatever contract that was and you took the domain out from under his nose, fired him for reasons he presumably can deny with intent to sell the company knowing full well the two guys you just fired were the only thing capable of holding you back- even if they WERE for selling it, you'd have to share the profit, even face jwj taking back ownership somehow because you knew he had a good part in it all.
This is provided matt is indeed full of shit as he's more or less proven himself to be.
I will produce the movie guys don't worry we got this
it involves a lot of ham-fisted keyboard typing though

I order that Brohoster be hung, drawn, and quartered.
Don't actually do this because I'm not a judge and if you did the police would probably be very unhappy with you
eagerly awaiting JWJ's new company
Regarding thoughts.pdf, I'm really not sure who or what to believe. The stuff about Andrew turning in the past week sounds [i]very[/i] fishy, but maybe Jake isn't as crystal clean and innocent as we like to believe. Particularly the overloaded servers claim. It'd be interesting to look into that.
I would suggest to everyone to not immediately bandwagon to Jake's side, but to consider both sides and most importantly, [i]take everything you read with a grain of salt[/i].
Just my 2c
What's the best Minecraft hosting service out there right now? I need to find a new host.

In JWJ defense, Brohoster servers worked well when he was in control and went down hill fast after Matt took over.

Aye aye to that, I have aired my concern to a couple of parties within the last 12-24 hours.
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;30559911]Hey, Hexxeh uses a Mac and he's been a bro around here so far.[/QUOTE]
You are right, I apologize. I guess Matt wanted to be like Hexxeh and bought a Mac with his 600.000

I wanted to believe Matt wasn't that bad, then his former employees spoke up, then he told Jake how he "will own his ass" and started threatening people.
[QUOTE=Marlamin;30544050]I've gone ahead and told the #bukkit / #minecraft IRC channels. Let's get this party started.[/QUOTE]
Excellent.
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;30560128]I wanted to believe Matt wasn't that bad, then his former employees spoke up, then he told Jake how he "will own his ass" and started threatening people.[/QUOTE]
this. I don't care if he was cornered and getting desperate, telling people you're going to own their ass and send the SWAT team after them isn't really "guys this is a misunderstanding please I mean no harm"
It's all a misunderstanding let me just get my lawyers and the SWAT team in to help calm the situation.

Okay, I know I said I'd not post again, but now I'm just wondering where this whole swat team came from? People are quoting it as if I said it, which I never once did.
So, Matt, if it's just JWJ playing up and being lazy and a dickhead, why has the whole former team rallied behind him and joined him for his new company?
Your story doesn't match up, and never has.

What he basically did / is doing is essentially a huge "come at me bro" to Facepunch and for that matter the internet. God have mercy on anyone that does that.

Good bye Matt
You just can't stop lying.

I'm not taking sides in this drama, but those voicemails were supposed to be private between Matt and Jake. Sure, it was probably a dumb thing to say to an answering machine, but I can understand Matt's anger at the Brohoster smear campaign that Jake's started (whether rightfully or out of spite, we don't know).
Don't jump to conclusions in this matter (although it is a good idea to prepare to abandon ship)
