[QUOTE=Lazore;30544891]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[/QUOTE]
Indeed, JWJ introduced me to Brohoster and I haven't had any problems with it. But knowing that the company which JWJ has put so much time in being sold and the staff very possibly getting thrown out as trash just saddens me.

meanwhile he blames us for everything
[QUOTE=JWJ;30544978]meanwhile he blames us for everything[/QUOTE]
THIS IS THE DARK ART OF MONEY!
edit:
tell us when your new hosting service is running :)
Now I sort of understand why I was screwed up over the last few months, which I blamed on Brohoster's staff, but clearly there were underlying issues in the company itself. Best of luck to all of you at Brohoster, and to JWJ. What is happening is despicable and I hope it works out for the best, for the staff and for the customers.
So, after I get my cash back from my mistake of a renewal, are there any hosts that anyone recommends that I can use in the meantime?
[quote=brohoster IRC] [15:01] <ClubUptime> Oh, and Jacob left the company financially fucked. In fact, he left it so fucked (under my name and credit) that if it's not sold (which it will be sold), it will all be shut down 10am monday morning.[/quote]

Burial - 10am monday morning
Anyone know of a good domain registrar with the privacy protection that's cheap?
I want to get my domain away from BlowHoster ASAP (as it's up for renewal soon).
Haha, it's funny how he's trying to blame the terrible condition of the company on someone who's been fired.
Just in case you don't know, Matthew - Softlayer will remove all of your great little discounts and benefits if you shut down those boxes. ClubUptime will get fucked too.

And FUCK YOU for fucking over my clients.

Namecheap, free private WHOIS and cheap SSLs too. Plus they have a rep of having good support and being ethical (unlike GoDaddy who try and add $50 of bogus junk to your cart).

Now JWJ, stay professional. "Forget you!" :v:
[QUOTE=CU-MattR;30544895]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.[/QUOTE]
Hey you little cumstain, now I've been with Brohoster for like 9 months now and to be fair i've put up with all the shit cause I'm a nice guy. But firing Jacob and then selling his company? Come on really you fucking moron. And as for Andrew he has been nothing but BRILLIANT in helping all my server problems, even dealing with shit when I whine through other people. The messes have been sorted out, why the fuck are you even selling it when there is nothing wrong. I should probably say some other stuff and I will but seriously lmao

I've been a OVH customer for a few years now, never let me down.
[quote=IRC][15:07] <ClubUptime> Either way, it doesn't matter. You guys can get as "conspiracy theory" as you'd like. The simple fact of the matter is that a bunch of money was taken which kept us from paying a due bill. I'm signing off before this gets out of control, which it inevitably will.[/quote]
[QUOTE=Lapsus;30545173][/QUOTE]
Firing the founder.
Screwing over the users.
Selling the company.
Ragequitting.
This seriously [b]is[/b] movie material.
But... but... but the site had so much potential :eng99:
Also I'll expect a full refund if the servers stop going.
Oh, you mean that measly $5k that you let me keep in my bank accounts the last time you tried to fire me? I hope you aren't referring to the google checkout transactions that I've told you about countless times coming into my bank account that you don't care about. What about all that money you threw towards those supposed Bronus contractors?
[QUOTE=Combine_dumb;30541355]Well I usually use Filezilla, so I don't know really if it has a track record of doing stuff like that or whatever. What would everyone else recommend I use or do?
Also, changing the sites IP worked, I can connect/load it now.[/QUOTE]
it happened with me in filezilla all the time
there's an option to limit the max number of connections. i don't do web stuff anymore so i don't really remember where it is exactly.
[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]
As the guy that moved my shit over to bh back when you were selling web plans, I'll be migrating my 2 domains away from Brohoster by the end of this month, and making it a personal effort that I see as many people as possible migrate away.
[url=http://twitter.com/#!/luaduck/status/82163688798298112]A retweet would be cool[/url].
Holy shit.
I've never been one to buy into the Brohoster stuff but this is terrible. I feel sorry for JWJ, having been treated like this.
I hope Matt somehow gets fucked over in this deal and loses it all, he doesn't deserve to make a half a mil on JWJ's accomplishments.
Leach: I think you missed the part where he says he's shutting down Brohoster tomorrow at 10am. I guess Softlayer told him he can't pay the monthly bills off over the course of the entire month anymore.
So, IRC is going mental, but there's something that I'd like to ask you JWJ.
Do you have any recommendations for a temporary host, for the clients that are simply waiting for you to start something trustworthy?
Also, I don't know about the other clients, but if you were to start a [url=http://www.kickstarter.com/]kickstarter[/url] or something to start something up, my current server fund would go straight to it, and I'm sure many others would pitch in as well.

Hooray, I get to migrate all my shit out via a netbook! :ohdear:

[b]Excuse me?[/b] [highlight]Excuse me?[/highlight] [i]I politely stated I wasn't going to cause any fuss by not saying anything publicly and that I wasn't going to do any screaming or shouting over myself being terminated.[/i] I don't believe you or my former fellow coworkers need any additional stress, but Matthew Rosenblatt, [b]you can kiss my ass.[/b]
You are the most unprofessional piece of shit, scumbag, motherfucker I have ever met in my entire life. You are more corrupt than what you portrayed Jacob Jervey as.
I worked my ass to the bone for that company, by Jacob's side, and even yours. I was working on issues during my college courses for this company, and went far beyond what was needed of me.
[b]The past week our issues has been in the sky rocketing numbers and while we had enough money to hire 10 new staff members, you sat by idle working on Bronus, something that will never see the light of day.[/b]
Don't you [highlight]dare[/highlight] accuse me of not working when I worked beyond my hours within the past week.
I love how everyone fails to publicize the fact that over Brohoster's entire life span, I have not had one official day off. NOT ONE. In fact, if you take the entire week that I have supposedly not done my job, you would have missed hundreds of days off I should still be eligible for, you motherfucker.
Not once have I personally told anyone within Brohoster or Club Uptime they were fucking up; I kept my talks strictly on issues of business that needed to be handled, but GOD DAMN - don't you fucking say a word about how much I have worked.
[highlight]I've worked at Brohoster longer than you have. Longer than anyone has, even Jacob himself.[/highlight]
Go to hell.
I [i]was[/i] going to buy a server from them... but now seeing this internal mess of a company I think I wont.
wow matt you're a god damned cunt

[QUOTE=JWJ;30544911]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.[/QUOTE]
We never lost "hundreds of servers" in the period of a week, nor did sales drop by 70%. Ever.
