hi , its just something i want to share and want to say that you never should take
and maybe you can use this to to know how safe you need to be those days
here goes my story
my first master reseller was from kryptonitehost.com
after 1 month the problems started (my first suspension for no reason )
after a post of 7 to the support :S then i got 1 single answer back ( your unsuspended) after 24 hours ...
after downtimes of 8 hours and more , so they desided to just kick my reseller of there host ( no warning , NOTHING )
when you make a post over it and again a couple of hours later ( 12 - 18 ) then you get the answer that it was mis using the server (server crashing to mutch becouse a MYBB FORUM !!!!! )
so , searching a new host to start on ( founded a good 1 now )
ok , after that was done then i got exept a lot of downtimes (betwean the 6 @ 8 hours a DAY) , no problems anymore ( every reseller was deleted , EVERYTHING whitout a SINGLE warning )
so i used the host only as a mp3 player (what els can i use for it , if it is all the time down )
now today , after a 12 downtime (and some serieus server problems whit corrupt files ) they desided to delete my mp3 map whitout a SINGLE message to thell it
thats not all
the file upload WAS 60 mb (php file ) but they changed it back to 2 mb so you cant do anyhting anymore whit it
and now its time to w8 on my response i gave to them ( a little flamable support ticked )
so now the final rating of this host
if you want to wast your money , then just trow it away becoues that do more then giving it to Kryptonite hosting
final rating : 0/10 (was 1/10 becouse the 60 mb upload)

How much were you paying and what were the specs of the account? It is possible your host was overselling, that is giving you too much for too little, then once you start to use the account they cannot support it.
Also, were the MP3 files you were hosting copyrighted? That can get you shut down, depending on where in the world the host is. :)

i just paid 60 dollar for 1 year :) (whit free domain)
the mp3 files are copyrighted (not all of them , some are mixed by me ^^ ) but as long you cant download them is it 'normal ok '
the spects i got is the same like i got now :) on my other host (for 70 dollars , and whitout problems )
its a master reseller/unmetered unmonitored (yea , its a kind of overselling but they change the hard drives when they get 80% full )
i readed a few revieuws over that host and the score was the same ( from the 6 revieuws was there 1 good revieuw , all the others says that they spended there money on it and are forced to change like i needed to do )
now (again .. ) i was again offline whit my website (complaining over 2 mb upload i got now instead of the normal 60 )
after i made a post of more then 500 chars , then i get 1 simple answer back (i cant have it , its something like , ' get lost , there is your answer' )
so far i saw the server and the whois lookup ( shared ip ) then i saw around the 1200 clients
isnt it normal that every 'node' got a differend ip ??
the system are p4 dual core (X4 or 2X , need to see it on cpanel) (the 1 i got now are 8X so its the double)
it all started whit my forum , from the moment i installed my forum whit a few mods
then the server started to crash and to break down and then i saw what kind of support it realy was :S (after you made a ticked of 5 then they change of support )
the strange thing i got now is that i cant acces my music site and that my friends can acces it (something i cant have eather , if i cant acces it then it is offline :S)
its from the moment you use 2 differend hostings company's that you realy see the difference betwean 1 that try to help and 1 that just stand there for the 'money'
its hard to explain , the best way is to do the same to see it on your own :S (like it is always whit everything ^^ )
the reason why they suspended me was for spamm mail ( zero spamm tollerance) but it was just 1 mail every 15 min to my email (wrong configured cronjob ,that isnt spamm ... and when you need to w8 24 hours before you get a reply .. )
then the reason why he deleted my hole website (powerchaos.info) is becouse the forum let the server crash (that was the only thing to that dint load :S and when i load it then it crashed for a couple of hours )
so they just forced me to move my site , you can understand it to that it isnt posseble to host a paid client on it when it isnt online like it need to be
if the server goes down for maint then it take up to 15 min and it is back (no1 knows it )
but when it goes down for 4 hours , then online for 2 hours , then back down for 4 hours ....
then you got some serieus trouble
so thats why i dont recommerd them , for the same money you can get a better hosting (and you get the same , master/unmetered/unlimited) exept the domain name then :)
whats the best way to break down a business ?? , when you get suspended for 24 hours ... (as fresh started host then )
ok , i think that this was what i wanted to say (its a lot) and a reason why :)

For an unmetered reseller with 1200 clients on one server, assuming all the other clients have the same or similar packages to yours, then that is most certainly overselling. The host probably freaks out whenever someone starts to use even a tiny bit of resources. The whole server is probably like a house of cards, one user starts to use their account too much and the whole server comes crashing down from too much load.

that explains it why it is most of the time offline
but its specily the support that gives me trouble
here is a previeuw of it
its not a real Question , its just something to show
hi,
i got a little problem whit my website,
it shows a 500 error :S
can you check it please and thell me how i can fix it ??
Thank you and Greets From The Crasher
that was the Question and now the answers ..
hi,
check your file permision
if you got more Questions then feel free to contact us
admin
hi,
it seems that you used a wrong file permision
try it to change to 644 for php and see if the folders got the permision set to 755
if you still got problems then , then please provide me then whit the pass/username so whe can check it on the server
regards,
admin
this is just a previeuw , its just to show the difference of answers you get from the 2 differend hosts
the first 1 doesnt realy helps you and the second 1 does helps you ( file perm 644 .. )
then the last thing i hate
when the server got some trouble from insite reason (like upgrade , ... wat els)
then the first server doesnt warn you
the second send you a email if needed so your always warned
the thing you need is support , a bad support makes a bad server
a good support on a bad server makes the server better
a good server and a bad support makes the server bad to (depends on the problems then )
a good server and good support lets you stay there for ever :)

Um, if your host is American (and probably most European countries have this, too), this is against the law. You can't even provide the music. And I bet there is a way to somehow download the music off of your site anyway... :( Unless you have artists' permission, you can't put it on your site.
But this Web host seems pretty bad, unless you're really hogging its server resources. Do you have thousands of clients with their own forums or something?
Yeah, ive even found a way to download songs from last.fm which I only managed because of a dogey media player plugin. I updated the media player to the latest version and I can now :(

i use itonly for a flash mp3 player now
and yes , you can download them if you know the map where they are stored but then its still hard (if i want to put a emty index.html file in it ^^ )
the files ares strored like ./map/track 18.mp3 or like ./map/this is the song name of it (whit spaces).mp3
so only if you know the name then you can download it :)
and for the hosting i use my other server becouse i cant trust this server :S
@ajof , if you still want to have the songs you play from last fm , then i suggest to check your temp dir :) (they are stored there , until you close the player )

I use linux so its not quite that simple.

hehe , linux :)
my faforite program where you cant play games on ^^ (windows games , whitout whine ^^ )
they got a own temp drive ... (min 200 mb )
i dont know how hard it is to work whit linux becouse i installed that only 1 time and then i deleted it again ( internet dint works :S )
but i know that linux would be a lot better for me ( then my name isnt right anymore ^^ )

To tell you the truth, I'm still using Windows, and I probably will continue to unless I will eventually host my own site. Windows is just more common, so it's more universally accepted. Ubuntu hasn't reached that stage yet.
Ubuntu hasn't, but Linux mint has stopped me going back to windows at all like I always did with ubuntu.

ive been hosting with kryptonite hosting for a long time. I also have a master reseller. the service is great. your probably just abusing the server
hence your you do post "the crasher" as your signature in every post so its probably you causing all of your troubles lol

hmm , i aim wondering how ti comes then that they kick me from the s
thats weird

hmm , i aim wondering how it comes then that they delete my hole website whitout a warning , that the server crash when i try to open a simple mybb forum (less modded then i use now on my other host)
that the website is 25% offline of the time that i try to acces it ..
that it takes long to get a reply if you dont flame .. and some more stuff
the name i got is to do whit my comp :P (its still crashing all the time , and cant fix it whitout re installing ... its time to change to linux lol )
if i see the revieuws over webhosts (i needed to do that before ) then i see to that the average rate is 1/10
so i aim not the only 1 that complains about it
now the problem i got again (but i refuse it to report it ... i just ignore it )
is that my website doesnt works anymore (http://Www.dehost.org) the php upload is changed , and probaly ffmpeg is unistalled from the server (cant convert any vids anymore )
so , the only thing where i can use for it , is to store my 'illigal and legal ' mp3 files on it
and in some way , i aim realy abusing the server now whit my upload script if you want to know it (figured out a way to upload as mutch as you want and its a heavy procces )
but i cant use it to host some1 on it ( not a client that pays for it ) and specialy not when they suspend you whitout a warning ... (and a reply after 12 topics and 24 hours later and some flaming later )
so i got my reasons to say it , and i aim sure there are some more that will do it :)
