I like how he valued the company at $325,000 when he can't even pay a $12,000 bill. But I could be wrong, I didn't read this entire thread.
that was a mistake, apparently

Your house can be valued $325,000 but that doesn't mean you can pay a $12,000 bill
Trumple, your server was been given a proper minecraft burial.

Or should I say cremations.
end of stream :v:
[QUOTE=Zivhayr;30584888]It's not him selling the company in itself. Firing two model employees (one of which created the damn company) for not doing a good job, and then pretty much ruining the company to the point of having to shut it down/sell it (without telling the clients or staff). A lot of people are currently not able to get their money back, too.[/QUOTE]
you can fully hate him for that, i'm fine with that. but for trying to sell the company you shouldn't be too angry about.

I don't really care about laws for this,
but when you are running a service for clients it is good PR to let them know what is up with their stuff
I see it as a slap in the face to all brohoster customers to say I am selling or shutting down without letting us know. He had bad business practices.

Everyone has TNT.

If he made the fact that he was selling the company public (and didn't block anyone who tried to say that he was from the facebook page), and gave us fair warning to back up the servers, yeah sure.

Too bad he handled the situation like a truly antisocial bastard.
That's part of the reason people are pissed off at him about.

Looks like a Sphere to me.

[editline]20th June 2011[/editline]
hell, i could even host it for you trumple
It is online. :3 It's just... not that cube. It's a fake!
There's backups, we just made about 300k TNT blocks and blew them all up. This is the end.. of the Cube.
[QUOTE=Indicium;30585373]Awww, I loved the cube. :([/QUOTE]
That's the old one :v:
The new server is still up and TNT free
I made us all an obsidian shield. We're in it, but the lag is unbearable.

[QUOTE=JWJ;30543724]He gave me about $5000 (at the time we were on the assumption that we would be business [b]partners[/b] and would work on Brohoster [b]together[/b]). And no, I doubt I'm gonna get a single cent of this. He didn't do a single thing for Brohoster and ran it (into the ground) for about two weeks, meanwhile I worked 18 hours a day for a year straight. Yet, he'll be the only one seeing that half a million dollars. I didn't care that he took it from me so he could run it, but I give a HUGE fuck about this.

Like I told people, this wasn't about 'poor work performance'. This was about Matthew getting thousands of dollars for the hard work of other individuals. He fired Andrew for the exact same reason, despite Andrew having twice or even three times as many ticket replies as any other technician on any given day.[/QUOTE]
sue him
It seems... A troll started to talk in this thread.
[QUOTE=ifaux;30584573]i know matt's a huge dick and everything but you guys are going a little too far. i understand why you're mad but christ guys you're overreacting. he tried to sell the company so it's financial problems don't collapse onto him, and he's trying to maximize the amount he could get for it like any of you would.[/QUOTE]
Why defend him?
He obviously is a dick, doesn't know what hes doing. Then hes traumatizing his clients by providing crap.
I noticed an obvious errosion of quality of service. This is what happens when PEOPLE GET GREEDY.
He deserves to have 100% of all the financial burden for his poor business practices. His customers deserve 0%. So selling the company behind their back, or without courtesy to let them know is HORRIBLE PR.
I don't think they have that many clients anyways now.
Why not just rename the company to HoHoster. Where we treat you like a ho with a big wallet.

Don't take it too hard. He didn't even inform us (the staff) that it was happening. We had to find out from JWJ... which is kind of sad in my opinion.
So was the company sold? :O

No update on webhostingtalk so I guess not.
[QUOTE=stuky4ever;30587105]So was the company sold? :O[/QUOTE]
If it has been, he hasn't informed us yet.
