Hmmm. who are you? as in name...

[sharpenews]

Hey,

My name is Nick.

Thanks,
SharpeHosting/SharpeNews.

[GommeInc]

The shoutcasts are quite interesting.

[:Woof]

Hmmmm... i think i worked for you :l
Did u own a site where we could dj if so i workked for you then. as a dj :o as Anti-pod

[sharpenews]

Hey,

Yes, I did own HabLive. I've now moved onto Hosting.

And I remember you :8

Thanks,
Nick.

[:Woof]

Lmao so do i get a free deal? :D rofl!

[sharpenews]

Hi,

No sorry.

Thanks,
Nick.

[:Woof]

Omg was a joke :0

[T0X!C-uk]

I love how you have copied stuff from www.lc-hosting.com hence the same text and layout from the shoutcast prices

[BlueTails]

The shoutcasts are quite interesting.
I Agree, The Prices Are Very Cheap, Well Done, If It No Scam :)

[Steven.]

I love how you have copied stuff from www.lc-hosting.com (http://www.lc-hosting.com) hence the same text and layout from the shoutcast prices

Good notice, though, Lc-hosting's template was made by a tutorial on zymic.com :) so you could blame zymic =P

[Numinous]

Thats pretty funy because I have 1Gb space for £14 a year and a Domain for £2 a year so thats quite a bit cheaper than what your selling.

[sharpenews]

Hi,

We didn't copy from LC-Hosting...

I will tell our designer to change it if it's bothering you.

Thanks,
Nick.

[T0X!C-uk]

Hi,

We didn't copy from LC-Hosting...

I will tell our designer to change it if it's bothering you.

Thanks,
Nick.

Its not bothering me all im saying is that the layout of the text is the same its basically the same word for word apart from the prices are different

LMAO ive just rang the phone number on the site and when answered it sounded like some kid with a high pitched voice or it was a woman and they must be just redirecting to a house because they answered like you would your house phone

[splintercell!]

erm 2gb for £120 a year :S Or go to ax and pay like £20 a year "/ also no need to keep going


Hey,

My name is Nick.

Thanks,
SharpeHosting/SharpeNews.

[:Blob]

I host shoutcast free..

[sambates]

The thing is that ax-hosting.com and lc-hosting.com they are so unreliable. Sharpehosting servers are always up and if they do go down we reward our customers with a free month hosting or something like that. I was once hosted with both of the above companies and lc-hosting.com went down 3 times in one day and ax went down 2-3 times in a week. They do not deserve to be a webhost with this poor uptime rate.

Regards
Sam

[sharpenews]

Precisely.

I was with Ax-hosting once, in 1 day they went down 3 times.

I have no problem with LC-Hosting, and they went down once, whilst I was with them (That was a month).

Our servers always up, and as Sam quite rightly said, we reward our customers with free hosting, their money back etc, if they wish.

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

You have been saying that these hosting companies have had a lot of down time. No company can offer 100% uptime. You say your servers are never down. do you have any proof, that they are not down while you are a sleep? What datacentre do you use? I don't think you knew this, but hosting 100 listners @ 64KBS will make you go over your bandwidth limits unless you are unmetered. If you want qualitity shoutcast, you should visit www.streamsolutions.co.uk . I have dealt with them in the past. They have a lot of skills, and are dedicated. They have MSN bots to control every, and they also offer ON DEMAND for shoutcast.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

Edit: http://www.streamsolutions.co.uk/pricelist/ Use this to calculate the costs. (I am not Stream solutions staff)

Edit: I reccomend you do not buy from there. They are having trouble findind who their datacenter is. First it was the planet, then i told them it was Beyond The Network America, Inc. Then the owner said it is, so i asked for a site. Then he said he cant find it, but it is savvis. Here is the chat transcript anyway: This is a transcript of the conversation you had on SharpeHosting Support Center's website on Tuesday 02nd of August 2005 at 05:19:19 pm

[Bond-King]

Hey, I Made Www.HabJam.co.uk & Sharpehosting did most of it e.g the web hosting the layout the radio the stats everything. i have been with them for about a week now and i know its not a long time but they are a great company and not let me down once. sharpehosting are not a scam, they are a great company, great people and their staff are always happy to help and give u friendly advice.
full stop.

[sharpenews]

We charge for ALL installations, configuration and styling for all the above.

The scripts, ect we use are free, and if the owners wish to use them, and not pay us to install them, then they do not need to pay us, but some people are new to the web, and they may not understand how to install these things.

I had this problem, when I first came into Websites. I got great help from GfxFusion, they installed DJ Says, Cutenews for me, I paid.

And thank you Bondy :) Your a great customer.

[AspieDude]

Also, SharpeHosting are up 24 hours a day, With us aspies being nocturnal, and my site being with SharpeHosting at http://tdn.sharpenews.co.uk, I can clarify that greatly.

However, I installed most of my scripts for free... But self-installed ofcourse, Thus Didn't have to pay. I can understand Nick being a bit confused sometimes, But cut him some slack, His learning curve is fast, He's learned PHP, how to manage a host, HTML, MySQL, FTP, Javascript, etc. In a space of 9 months. I took 2 years to learn some of that stuff alone.

Anyway, yes, SH is great, thank you,
Chris.

[AspieDude]

DJ SEZ (yes, the original name for DJ Says) however was kind of my idea, I designed a small PHP announcement script using a MySQL Backend, althought because of the **** that back then was "freehosting123.com", it was constantly down and there were a few numerous errors. Uh, not quite sure what they're using for DJ "says" now, wether it was cutenews or their own script, But I was the start of this trend, just to let you know.

[Scriptermone]

The thing is that ax-hosting.com and lc-hosting.com they are so unreliable. Sharpehosting servers are always up and if they do go down we reward our customers with a free month hosting or something like that. Sam

Everyone says that :l and ax-hosting is better and cheaper than sharpe hosting
and also, they always give like loads more bandwidth when theyre updating something like Cpanel or theyre having a down time ...

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

If i was you, i would read that transcript. They know nothing about hosting. They don't monitor their uptime either. If i was you, stick with AX, LC, Alloy.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[AspieDude]

Ad Hominem and Strawmen.. Tut-Tut...

[LTADMIN]

I have never heard of them, so i cannot add them.

[AspieDude]

I have never heard of them, so i cannot add them.

Uh.. Ad Hominem and Strawmen are acts of over-excersizing predujice and fallacy, not habbo names. I'm suprised with your intelect, you hadn't known that.

[bmxwatson]

These guys are all clones
Look
Newbies= Post = 1-10
Good things:
None yet
Bad things:
Stolen stuff from diffren hosting, 3 catergroies in design (dosent look right), Your shoutcast costs. Ive seen some what done. And very expensive and a rip of. You could get 2 gigs for about the same price on your site for 1mb
Sort yourself out!!!

[icebox12]

Well it's not a bad flash begining ect.

But I must say this, and I suggest you get rid of it a.s.a.p before I have to report it to cutephp - you are not allowed to sell anything other people have made as it doesn't belong to you.

Under the catagory Services, you have Radio Extra's which states:


Do you want Radio Stats, Media player bars, Dj says, Cutenews and requests and shoutouts. Then you have came to the right Place.

For all these above it will cost:

£7

Order

For two of the above it will cost:

£3

Order

I've changed the color of in red which bit you are not allowed to sell, and the rest you have most probably downloaded from other sites and put them on your own to make more money.

You aren't allowed to do this.

[sambates]

We are not selling them we are installing them. Get it right

We are not over priced at all. That is why we have 30 + customers already and we have only been open a couple of months. The hosts you lot use are a laod of rubbish because they are always down. We have not had any downtime since we have opened. Why dont you keep your ****** comments to yourself. What have we done to make you lot turn into idiots.

[Edited By Partie2] (Forum Moderator) Please dont double post just simply edit your last post.

[sharpenews]

Ok.

Read all your comments, and thank you for some of them.

I went through and changed the things that YOU LOT thought were stolen. So, don't moan about that (ShoutCAST Layout). The cutenews was a mistake,and we have now taken the service off. The rest of the scripts, we did make ourselves, like the radio stats.

I've gone through, and looked at other hosts prices, and I think ours are reasonble, and our current customers think the prices are very good.

If you spot anything wrong with the site, please let me know, but just tell me, and dont say "Oh, you stolen it".

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

Looking at your poor site, chatting on free live chat software, and you not knowing your own server details, i would NEVER buy from you. If any one was buying, i would stop.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[sambates]

We do know everything about our server. You are just a sad man that goes around being an idiot trying to know everything when you dont. You try hosting with ax or lc. There server is always down

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

Well i asked you for charts, and you couldn't provide them. If you know where your servers are hosted, please give me the name of your datacenter.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[sharpenews]

Look LTADMIN,

Our customers are very happy with our hosting and services. We do not scam, our design is perfect for us, we are getting a better Live System, and we know everything we need to know about our server.

One more thing, Why did you ask me for root access yesterday? As if im going to give it to you.

LC-Hosting, AX-Hosting, AlloyHosting, FrictionHost etc - go with them, Im nor SharpeHosting is stopping you.

LTADMIN - You've annoyed me, you seemed to know MORE about the server then I did, and to be honest, you seem to hate SharpeHosting, So don't bother coming to us nor using our site.

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

I didn't ask for root access! I simply wanted the ips to all of the 3 fake servers you have. No host would give root access.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[bmxwatson]

U lot r clones

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

Why do you think i am a clone?

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[sambates]

We are not clones. If you look at bottom of sharpehosting it says owned by sam bates and Nick Coates. I am Sam Bates and the user sharpehosting is Nick coates. So just stop taking the **** for no reason.

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

Well looking at that post, you look no where near professional. Swearing at possible clients is not the way to sell.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[sambates]

No i do not swear at clients. I am only swearing at you because you are completely inculting our company and it is completely unfair on us. We dont put our website here to be insulted by someone like you

[LTADMIN]

Hey,

Poor downtime?? Your site isn't working.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

[sambates]

We have not had any downtime at all. And the site does work with a new template

[smurf-you]

Hmm... your clones from the same I.P.

Stop trying to fool people with your tricks.

1. You're advertising from a habbo forum - that suggests your children or that you cannot pay for actually advertisements (Not always children)

2. Your making clones to make you sound better by said "They don't scam there the best and i love them BLAG BLAG AND MORE BLAG"

3. The template you made for that person looks very UNTIDY. Not worth 7 pound.

4. Your actually template for the site looks nothing like what a hosting company website should look like, it looks un neat and looks as if you have no colours in mind.

5. You have no prove of your uptimes, list of how many users signed up, how many visitors, no nice graphics, and no prove that no one has signed up yet.

6. Your aiming at "Habbohotel players" straight away i got the feeling that it was unproffesional.

If i were you i wouldn't bother trying to bribe kids to buy your over priced hosting deals from a most likely a cheap re-seller.

You've got bad name and bad rep so far so i would try somewhere else, we'll stick to BETTER and SAFE deals at LC - AX hosting and few others aswell.



I'm sorry but this is most of our opinions.

Thanks - WildDart owner of many sites.

[Tomm]

Personally its the worlds c******* hosting I have ever seen

[мϊкэ]

god im sick of these new hosting sites posting here saying theyve got the best prices around! when if they look at the last 2 threads there prices are cheaper!
they should have like a seperate sub-forum for advertising hosts!
