Sorry guys, this really sucks - pages not loading (II)

Post by Luke »

Netfirms is doing such a fabulous job hosting this forum that I'm considering leaving for another host. What sucks is I've only been using them for 5 months and have already invested over $100 for a year of this crap service.

Really sorry about all the pages not loading, but hopefully, you won't hold this against me or the site. Although I guess I'm partly to blame for just signing up with them based on one member's recommendation.

If anyone has had positive experiences with a low-priced webhost, I'd be glad to hear your recommendations. I can accept the site costing hundreds to run, but when it's costing hundreds and not even running, well that's just stupid.

Just know when looking for a host, of the problems I've had with Netfirms.

Luke--

I'll look into some things for you. No promises, but hopefully I will have a couple of ideas for you very soon.

I don't feel too preseupmtious by saying that no one here holds anything against you for the loading problems here. We all love the fact that you have made this site possible for us Disney :herc: :pan: :donald: :mickeyface:'s to come together and discuss one of our passions. So much so that we're more than willing to overlook your apparent lack of good judgement ;)

Luke,

Yes, sometmies the pages don't load. It is not your fault and it is okay. We have a very nice message board here and you do a great job. We can handle a minor inconvenience once in a while.

I get a few more not loading pages but when I re-try it comes up after a while. No biggie. I just worry that when i refresh that maybe the entire site is gone.

Not a problem for me Luke. I'm with the force!!!!

anglefire... ;) :P

Umm... I know a guy who is a master webmaster (in my opinion), and he has about two sites running, or one about to be run, so I'll ask him when I get the chance about a good host! ;)

Oh, and soon, once I learn PHP and some other stuff, I'll be sure to design my own forums just for you luke! (a couple of years ;))

What's strange is we're having problems with the forum, not the main website. That's odd. :? I haven't gotten any 404 errors while browsing ultimatedisney.com, just ultimatedisney.com/forum/

Go figure.

Yeah, the site itself is fine and has never really had problems. It's the forum... :x

I'm guessing that there might be a problem with the PHP software or server. I'm not sure though. Just a thought.
