Teacup.

OK, I don’t know whether I have whinged and whine (if I wasn’t whinging and whining, what else would I be doing?) before about me not finding the “suitable” LJ account to cross-post my entries. It’s kinda worrisome that I might lose all my entries since Teacup started. But yesterday, inspiration struck! It was like…thunder crack. I’m not going to post the journal account until all my entries are cross-posted. I’m so excited that the account wasn’t taken.

In other news, remember the AshPink rant I made? Well, a whole month and nearly two weeks later on Twitter, we are told about free hosting until May 2010 for paid clients. Note we weren’t told what the fuck happened until somebody else asked what the fuck happened. Turns out the server was revoked. Great. So can I have my money back now since I only got nearly two months worth of my YEAR-LONG PAID plan? I still have the receipt.

On a lighter note (I want some sort of compensation APHost, damn it!), I finished all my exams just this Saturday gone by. This course, I just need to pass it. It’s so nerve-wrecking. I remember one question totally got me stumped. Something about skin lesions by Atherosclerosis, I think. Only this morning, the answer hit me. Something about fatty dots, fatty streaks, fatty pools and all that. Cue head/desk.

Will edit this post once all entries have been cross-posted successfully.

EDIT: I present to you, Boateng! Inspiration from the one and only Ozwald Boateng. ?

I really didn’t want to do this, but I am extremely pissed. Like usual.

So, a couple of months ago, I bought myself a domain and a shared hosting plan from AshPink. It was a small plan, mainly to host a few projects that would take the load off Teacup’s server. It’s all fine and dandy until a few days ago when I tried visiting my domain and I get a “Page Load Error. Address not found. Firefox can’t find the server at ______”.

OK, that’s fine. All servers go through some downtime. I tried going to their main website — 404 Error. Support website — 404 error. I remembered them having a Twitter account. Googled long and hard and finally found it — APHosting. Their last upate on this downtime was more than a week ago.

They say their server is working on their side. Yeah, that’s great. What about on the CUSTOMER’S side? How about that?!

So now, I’m stuck with a YEAR-LONG PAID plan, which doesn’t fucking work. I mean, seriously. The best they can come up with is “The Oreo server is still working at our end…”

The web support address on their Twitter profile doesn’t even work! The least they could do is, oh jeez, I don’t know, PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE WAY FOR CUSTOMERS TO CONTACT YOU?!?

EDIT: I just did a quick check on whether their server is actually running using SiteUptime, their result was Failed.
