Hi, My name is Jason Bell and im looking for some hosting. I currently purchase hosting from startlogic, but I have reached my 5gig diskspace limit and they only offer 100mb more. I run a gaming website, and basically all the space is used from our players ftp accounts. We upload game demos, music, game configs and such. We love to share our music mostly. I dont need a large bandwith plan, but I am looking for a 20gig plus diskspace plan for a reasonable price. I pay 8.99 a month for the 5 gigs I have now. I would either keep that hosting and purchase like an ftp account, or would switch the whole site to a new host depending on the terms and price. We just like having backups of files and sharing music, we dont use any where near the 100gig of bandwith we have. We have used 1gig of bandwith in 6 months. So if anyone knows where we can get hosting like i described or can make me a custom deal please post here or email me at intent70@gmail.com. Also I have a flash template I need to change the buttons and music on, if anyone would like to make some money on the side and know hot to edit flash templates let me know. Thank you.
 
Do u have copyrights to share music like that ?

Plus the best solution that comes to my mind is go with www.canaca.com they have exellent plans and ur ftp needs will be fullfiled only there cpanel is crap , but u need only ftp so it should be excellent. There 2nd plan is best for u.

Later.
 
Hi

I have just been in chat with another user via AIM, it looks warez to me & just wated to let you all know just in case he/she gets in touch with you.

Below is the transcript:


[09:01] Leetestetplayer: hi
[09:02] hdlivechat: Hi
[09:02] Leetestetplayer: I was browsing through some forumjs looking for hosting and saw you guys cared enought o offer messaging
[09:02] Leetestetplayer: excuse my typing lol
[09:02] hdlivechat: Yes, we try to give the best support we can.
[09:03] hdlivechat: No problem
[09:03] Leetestetplayer: im trying to learn the correct way to type, but i was wondering if you could give me a good deal
[09:04] Leetestetplayer: I am a gamer, and have a small site, however my team loves using ftp accounts. We have a 5gig of diskspace right now and it ran out
[09:04] Leetestetplayer: My current host will only raise it 100mb and I need alot more
[09:04] Leetestetplayer: I dont need much bandwith, but i need alot more space
[09:04] Leetestetplayer: say 15-20 gigs
[09:05] hdlivechat: What is your budget?
[09:05] Leetestetplayer: not sure ;p
[09:05] Leetestetplayer: Were sponsored by alienware and dell, this is the only thing I pay for right now
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: we like sharing music and game demos
[09:06] hdlivechat: What sort of files whill you be hosting?
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: ^^
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: music, game demos
[09:06] hdlivechat: Warez?
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: huh?
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: music we own
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: we send to each other
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: to share
[09:06] Leetestetplayer: like in our team
[09:06] hdlivechat: So you have copyright?
[09:07] Leetestetplayer: we have the cd's
[09:07] Leetestetplayer: if thats what u mean
[09:07] hdlivechat: Who are the artists?
[09:07] Leetestetplayer: we just want to share via FTP
[09:07] Leetestetplayer: not on a site
[09:07] Leetestetplayer: like the one we have now is an example
[09:07] hdlivechat: So you want to host the files on the server or just links to where there hosted?
[09:07] URL NOT SHOWN
[09:08] hdlivechat: 1sec
[09:08] Leetestetplayer: server
[09:08] hdlivechat: ^^ 404
[09:08] Leetestetplayer: oops
[09:08] URL NOT SHOWN
[09:09] hdlivechat: No, this looks like warez to us, unless you have proof that you can share them we cant help you, this is required by most hosts.
[09:10] Leetestetplayer: warez is a site where people can download illegal stuff correct?
[09:10] hdlivechat: Yes, its the music that can be illegal if you dont have the proof
[09:10] Leetestetplayer: I just want ftp space, for like 6 people to share
[09:11] Leetestetplayer: not a community site
[09:11] Leetestetplayer: startlogic runs the one u saw
[09:11] Leetestetplayer: but the only offer 5 gigs of space
[09:11] Leetestetplayer: ill give u my login if u want
[09:11] Leetestetplayer: to prove
[09:12] hdlivechat: Its our policy that you must prove that you can use them, startlogic can conduct its site & server as they like but I must follow my managers TOU.
[09:12] Leetestetplayer: i dont understand
[09:12] Leetestetplayer: im not transferring that data
[09:12] Leetestetplayer: i was giving u an example
[09:13] Leetestetplayer: u saying music period?
[09:13] Leetestetplayer: unless i send u my original cd's?
[09:13] hdlivechat: I know what your mean but your missing the point, we need proof that you can use them, do you have rights from Michael Jacksons record company?
[09:14] hdlivechat: or Weezer's
[09:14] hdlivechat: to use the music
[09:14] Leetestetplayer: it's legal to make backups of anything
[09:14] Leetestetplayer: i thought
[09:14] Leetestetplayer: or is it?
[09:14] Leetestetplayer: Im not a web guy
[09:14] hdlivechat: Well when you think if it this is just the same, you can download it but its still there.
[09:14] Leetestetplayer: just a gamer
[09:15] hdlivechat: for sombody els to download
[09:15] Leetestetplayer: Well im not sure what your saying, I have never seen that question on any server order form
[09:16] hdlivechat: Look at other hosts TOU & you will see that most dont host mp3's etc etc
[09:16] Leetestetplayer: Your a reseller and your responsible for what people host on your space?
[09:16] Leetestetplayer: I don't understand
[09:17] hdlivechat: Were not resellers, we own our own servers & we maintain our network.
[09:17] Leetestetplayer: Then you ask everyone what exact data they are gunna host and police it?
[09:18] hdlivechat: Most people dont host music that cant be playied, your missing the point, if you have proof that you can share them then its no problem but we can get in very bad trouble & so can you.
[09:19] Leetestetplayer: Alot of people in the gaming world have private ftp's like mine to share demos and music
[09:19] Leetestetplayer: it's not public
[09:19] Leetestetplayer: u cant just click on a link or google it
[09:19] Leetestetplayer: like warez
[09:19] hdlivechat: & most of them have dedicated servers. ^^^ we need proof.
[09:19] Leetestetplayer: what do you need exactly
[09:20] Leetestetplayer: ios what im asking
[09:20] Leetestetplayer: is*
[09:20] Leetestetplayer: startlogic is one of the top hosting sites in the world
[09:20] hdlivechat: You need proof that you can share them.
[09:20] Leetestetplayer: so u want an email from micheal giving his consent
[09:20] Leetestetplayer: lol
[09:21] hdlivechat: lol, that music is copyrighted by the record company & you must have permission to use it.
[09:21] Leetestetplayer: i bought it, i can use it
[09:21] Leetestetplayer: i can host and backup my music whereever i want if i pay for it
[09:22] Leetestetplayer: its not warez or p2p
[09:22] hdlivechat: it is if you dont have proof
[09:22] Leetestetplayer: i dont understand "proof"
[09:23] hdlivechat: wheres the proof that you can use it
[09:23] Leetestetplayer: i need to scan my cd's and post the pics?
[09:23] hdlivechat: so you want to copy cd covers
[09:23] Leetestetplayer: It's leagally knows u can backup music
[09:23] Leetestetplayer: known*
[09:24] Leetestetplayer: or else u couldnt burn cd's
[09:24] Leetestetplayer: from your originals
[09:24] Leetestetplayer: i dont see what your saying
[09:25] hdlivechat: Yes, you can bacup music BUT FOR YOURSELF & your only allowed to make 1 backup.
[09:26] Leetestetplayer: well i want to make a backup of my music for me then
[09:26] hdlivechat: lol, you already said you want to share it.
[09:27] Leetestetplayer: yes i do, but how can your company say noone is gunna share a file on your servers
[09:27] Leetestetplayer: you police ip's and content?
[09:27] Leetestetplayer: isn't me breaking the copyright law my problem?
[09:27] Leetestetplayer: unless your a reseller i dont see how
[09:27] hdlivechat: We do allow this but we keep close eyes on whats being shared & any content thats found to be warez, music etc etc then your account is suspended.
[09:28] Leetestetplayer: ahh ok
[09:28] Leetestetplayer: so you dont allow music
[09:28] Leetestetplayer: k thanks anyway

As soon as I saw the AIM name "Leetestetplayer" I would have said "sorry, I'm not interested in doing business with you" ;)

No one in there right mind will host your 20gig of warez for $8.99/month

You have used 5gig disk space
You have used 1gig transfer...

Something just dosn't add up there
 
Our plans are very flexible and is charged according to the amount of space or bandwidth you require. As long as your contents are legal, you can use it anyway you like within your account:

1GB Space: us$1.00
20GB Bandwidth: us$1.50
 
check out www.edatarack.com
for $5.95 you get 10GB disk, 150GB transfer
there's also another plan that gives more for $8.95 i think
i haven't had any problems with them, and the download speeds are quick! good for music and stuff
 
how does $8 a month for 25gb of space and 400gb bandwidth with free domain sound? PM if intrested.

Sounds like overselling and a soothing for ears only.
 
Ohm I think I got this guy on our hosting. Ohm I must check he hasn't uploaded anything to our servers yet. But if he uploads illegal files I will have to remove his account. But anyway can someone pm me the url again? I would like to check it out?

Ohm I did get this guy after looking over the info. And same email etc. But so far as far as I know no illegal files on my server I will check......... nope he not uploaded anything yet.
