I just got the message as well that my account was suspended, yet it is their account that is suspended.

No clue what is going on, but might as well see how long they will be down.

kirby145
February 3rd, 2007, 19:43
Acoole or zlx will come here and explain eventually

rahvcap
February 3rd, 2007, 23:39
Let's hope we get an explanation! 4UHost was great, hopefully this is only temporary.

z|x
February 3rd, 2007, 23:46
Looks like all account have been suspended. I am not even able to access the Admin Area for creation of accounts.

Anyone PMed Acoole from here yet?

rahvcap
February 3rd, 2007, 23:48
I was just about to PM Acoole. I noticed even his personal forums www.wii-fans.net is down.

EDIT: Guess I can't PM him yet, don't have enough posts.

z|x
February 3rd, 2007, 23:50
hmm, might be a server problem then.

rahvcap
February 3rd, 2007, 23:51
I hope so, there was talk about restarting the server, maybe he decided it was time?

kirby145
February 4th, 2007, 00:15
Before this happened I pmed Acoole asking why the server had bad load, if it would be a good idea to restart the server or stop adding new users to make it better.

Today this morning swap used was at .01% and the other things were highly improved (we don't know how) because swap was at 100% the day before.

You can try emailing Acoole or getting him over her in some way. Because he is the manager of 4uhost completely.

rahvcap
February 4th, 2007, 00:17
I'm sure he will be here soon. I'm just hoping the damage is only temporary.

ezhost-anish
February 4th, 2007, 01:33
any way to contact him via messenger

z|x
February 4th, 2007, 01:35
anyone has his msn id?

kirby145
February 4th, 2007, 01:56
Nope we can't find him. But he does go to this forum his username is acoole... ... ... I don't think this is the end. If it is we can stck together

JonnyH

Well it looks like the host has terminated his account.

ezhost-anish
February 4th, 2007, 03:56
well we will wait for him to come here and say something then

z|x
February 4th, 2007, 05:01

What makes you say that?

Shadab
February 4th, 2007, 08:52
Well it looks like the host has terminated his account.

NO.
the account hasnt been terminated.
it has been suspended temporarily.

(i know this because:
i also know of a similar suspension faced by another host
(as it displayed the same error page),
& that was because some member had sent emails from his hosting account at random excessively,
ie he had spammed excessively.
That host had to pay some bucks (not much) to get unsuspended.).

i could only hope that this wouldnt be the case here.
As it feels very bad if you pay for something that we havent done.

z|x
February 4th, 2007, 10:14
hmm, the suspended page has changed. I hope this is a sign of improvement of the situation.

Shadab
February 4th, 2007, 10:20
hmm, the suspended page has changed. I hope this is a sign of improvement of the situation.

no. i dont see any change.

z|x
February 4th, 2007, 10:26
Before the message was to contact Acoole from 4uhost.info about the suspension. Now it doesnt show that message.

Hope everything will be fine soon.

February 4th, 2007, 10:30
Before the message was to contact Acoole from 4uhost.info about the suspension. Now it doesnt show that message.

yes,
now it gives this message:
"Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible."

well, we could just do nothing.
just wait and watch.

well bye. its night here.
hope the account gets un-suspended, tomorrow.

JonnyH
February 4th, 2007, 11:46
No this means they've suspended his account. This probably means there's a mistake which has hit the server or the host has terminated his account for whatever reason. It doesn't have to be temporarily, they maybe giving him a couple of days to get his files and go. You never know what's happened though.

PS: If you didn't know, that page is just the default cPanel suspended page.

ezhost-anish
February 4th, 2007, 11:50
yea lets hope everything turns out well soon.

rahvcap
February 4th, 2007, 11:54
Still down, I hope this isn't the end! :(

ezhost-anish
February 4th, 2007, 11:59
none of us have heard from acoole yet. so until z|x get in touch with him (He has to wait until acoole PM him somehow) or acoole himself come's down here and report us anything. we aren't sure about anything.

JonnyH
February 4th, 2007, 12:39
I wish you guys luck.

andrew johnson
February 4th, 2007, 15:23
i am was completely shocked and sad - i really loved 4uhost it good service but why the 4uhost went down without prior letting us know

but i glad z|x referred me to here to dissuss about it

so i hope all things will fixed soon

h0ster
February 4th, 2007, 15:27
You'll probably be waiting a long time. If it shows as suspended it means the server is up, otherwise it wouldnt show that page, you'd just get another error. The bills probably havn't been paid, if it was warez or spam, the problem would have been solved and it would be back up. I'd say the owner would have come here to explain unless it was gone.

kirby145

1. Acoole the owner has posted here before, he is a member.
2. I'm glad that all the 4uhost users are here together waiting :)

we hoping acoole would give a reason behind this then we will find new home for some people who lost websites through this bad day :-)

ezhost-anish
February 5th, 2007, 02:14
Can someone PM acoole from here because he has subscribed not to receive any mails and i don't have enough post count to sent a PM through the forum.

z|x
February 5th, 2007, 02:15
He has disabled PM's.

ezhost-anish
February 5th, 2007, 02:17
ohh wow.. this is like he sent all of us to Pluto :)....is he aware of the account suspension ?

z|x
February 5th, 2007, 02:34
Dont know.

JonnyH
February 5th, 2007, 03:02
To be honest, I think he knows it's down but just is ditching communication with all of you. If you don't get any notice in 24 hour, I personally would move.

Erm, I think he's allowed to. You're not very good at being nice to people are you? :P It's quite obvious to me that it's terminated, like I said a day ago only to get replies telling me I was wrong :rolleyes:

well if the account was terminated then the explorer would have shown such site doesn't exist but it's still on suspension mode. So there must have been some problem.

i'm still hoping that acoole might resolve this issue...

Ok, I dont want to argue with a load of people who have lost their websites, somehow that seems a bit wrong. I just think if it was a simple problem the owner would hve got in touch and explained not blocked his pm and vanished.

Good luck :)

Being the owner of a current free web host, I agree. The bill hasn't been paid, and it's either (a) not paid on purpose or (b) acoole is on vacation. It's been 72 hours now, and I know, that I'm checking my website daily.

I'll stick with option (a) on this one. It's sad, but I believe he's tapping out.

Well this is something which came to my mind, i remember acoole posting a thread about the payment but i think he said its somewhere in march and he put up the donation button.well he said donations isn't necessary as he can pay it.
So i think acoole must have done some miscalculation on the payment date and now cant afford and wont it look stupid if a host came and say that in here or i go with the option (a) posted by CNLucas which is also similar.

Let me guess, you think I want you to be hosted with me. Do you think with your attitude I would even want you to set foot on our servers.

yea hopefully.we will wait for him.

@ Jonny` and internalx : Please respect the subject in the thread, You people can sent PM and continue whatsoever.

February 5th, 2007, 16:01
Well, still no luck. I hate to say it but I am starting to give up. I'm setting up another account somewhere else now. I'll keep my eye on this thread, but it maybe the end of 4uhost.

andrew johnson
February 6th, 2007, 01:22
now i really bit cross with acoole - he let us down - he really should known
so why not restart in new host - 4uhost UK? that would make z|x happy again

z|x
February 6th, 2007, 01:32
I still have a feeling that he'll be back.

But if someone has servers or can help in funding for a server, I'd be glad to help.

incase is he doesn't come back, is there a anyway to get TSO DB and files back and as a matter DB and file of rest 230+ hosted sites by 4uhost as many mustn't have made back ups.

z|x
February 6th, 2007, 01:58
Acoole is the only one with access to the files right now. :(

4uhost was resting in Fine Spot Network server.
Didn't you guys received any announcements that Fine Spot Network is moving to a new server so you have to get your backups within a month?

February 6th, 2007, 06:16
nope, nothing of the sort. How do you know that it was hosted there?

h0ster

Because he owns it. As I remember, havn't seen Dayu around for a long long time.

Here's the copy of the message that was sent by our Admin weeks ago.

Subject:[Important] Server Shut Down
Sent: 2007/01/14 23:45


Important Announcement!


Note! You are receiving this email because you have a hosting account at Fine Spot Network server, if you have questions regarding this matter, please consult the reseller who gave you your account.


As we are getting to the second stage of Fine Spot Network Project, we would like to announce that we are ending the use of our current server which is a dedicated server we are renting from Liquid Web. The server will only be available until February 15, 2007.


After that date, Fine Spot Network and other Fine Traders' Projects will reside in our own server which will be located in our data centre here in Japan. Our own server is scheduled to test operate from February 10, 2007. We are anticipating a lot of downtimes during this process, so if you don't want your sites to be affected by this, please consider transferring your sites to other free servers.


You have one month to take your own cpanel backups. If you wish to stay with Fine Spot Network, please do inform us by replying to this announcements. No accounts will be transfered to the new server automagically.


At this moment, we are not yet thinking of offering any resellers in our new server, so if you have a reseller account at Fine Spot Network server, please understand that it will all end by February 15, 2007. VIP packages will be subject for refund, please send me a private message.

If acoole needs a resller, he can PM me, I have space. Someone pass that on if he needs it.

I just sent this PM to Dayu:


acoole
I could help him out, seeing as a lot of people are upset that he's gone. I used to get a reseller of you a while back. I have 3 vps's now, thanks for giving me the chance to try things out, much appreciated.

If you can email him and pass the message on that would be cool, as I understand you're not giving out resellers now. If that fails we could, together, try and help people out and I would take transfer of the accounts if they we're reasonable.

This is my main site now http://valve-hosting.com. We don't ask for posts or ads on accounts and give away a free vhx.cc subdomain. Our packages are all 100mb/4gb with an option to upgrade if ppl contribute to our community, let me know what happens.

Marc

I will give acoole some space if he needs it. Otherwise, i'm happy to take people and transfer backups if needs be.

;)

Ah, I just checked my inbox, and even I received the same email. No where was it written that it was from 4uhost.info and so I did not check it. I'm sure that even Acoole must have missed it and was not notified.

Anyway, is there any way to get our data backed up before transferring to the new servers?

February 6th, 2007, 14:49
Well looks like that was the problem, the e-mail was in my spam folder. At least I had made a backup the night before the shut down. I have already moved my site, I lost a member and a few posts, but not that much of a problem.

I wish you all luck getting everything set-up again, who knows maybe if 4uhost comes back I'll come back. Anyways, I found a nice host at www.ej.am . I decided to go the more stable route and decided on a post 4 host. The site has also been up a while so I feel safer there! :-) They have a package with no hosting also!

Jun Luzon
February 6th, 2007, 15:41
I just learned from our admin that 4uhost was suspended because it continued creating several new accounts even after the shutdown announcement.

Our broadband connection was delayed so our use of Liquid Web server was extended for a month or two. 4uhost account was just suspended so all data are intact and not lost, we even have a backup of it.

I am unsuspending the account in a minute now.
