the world from behind her camera
Big chunk was lost!
May 2008 – November 2009.
All posts within the mentioned months were all gone!
The cause? My former webhost that was ALWAYS down! That saving my wordpress files (3 blogs, I was lucky to save but 1-complete file) became impossible because each time I would try to download files, I’d be cut off by the service. The database? Hah! I am not a newbie when it comes to working on database so when I was about to download all 3 blogs databases and found them empty, yeah, I was as dumbfounded as you (who understand database.)Anger wont do me any good anymore. Acceptance, I’m getting there. SHIT HAPPENS and that’s the hard fact.
But I am still waiting for this former webhost to refund my money. You see when I bought a hosting package from them last year, they had (still does) this strange looking control panel where subdomains files are placed together with the main. I was not used to such mess so I asked their costumer service how to go about it because I need to establish subdomains. The guy offered to do it for an additional fee. Later on I found out from his boss that I was not suppose to pay for that service. The money wasn’t refunded though..so I am asking for them to refund it back.
see how messy this is?
Website owners, have you seen something like this before? I have worked with German, Dutch and American webhosts in the past but this control panel of this ex-webhost is something else!
Well, I have been patient with this webhost for the longest time! Not to mention the frustrations and headaches, gosh! Monthsssss of sending tickets whenever my 3 blogs were down! Would you believe if I tell you that I would send tickets many times a week, at times even on a daily?!
Asking for them to refund my money back has been a headache as well. I have not disclosed YET the name of this webhost BUT I WILL and MY BLOGGER FRIENDS are ready to write about this host’s horrible service if they continue to ignore my emails and delay my money transfer. This isn’t a promise.
I will do it.
