Hormones can bite my arse.
I was in such a bad mood yesterday. I had a training class yesterday morning, so I was offline. When I got in, I started checking email and found out my new pet project was displaying errors. I just started telling people about my site the day before, asking them to take a look. I was really embarrassed when I started getting emails telling me that it wasn’t showing up right.
I research the error message, and found out it’s a problem with mysql. In order to resolve it, my host has to do something. Well, my host is cheap and has great up time, but the only way I can get in touch with them is via email. I submit a ticket, and don’t get a response.
I start researching new hosts – Is it too much to ask to find one with available tech support? I find one that seems decent and try to start an account. “Error: We detect you are trying to commit fraud. Submit a trouble ticket and someone will research.”
Okay, fine. I go to the link and try to submit the ticket, but the form requires a user name and password for an account. But I don’t have an account! You.Won’t.Let.Me.Create.One
Then, my ISP goes down. Guess I’ll worry about my website later. Since my pc was acting all weird, I decide I’ll see if I can figure out what’s wrong with it.. Virus scan, nothing. Spybot, nothing. Ad aware, nothing. Over 60% free space. Defrag is fine. Page file is fine. Still not responding well.
Calgon, take me away.
Alliance of Free Blogs - I found You Know You Wanna while searching for kitty porn. No, that's not a typo.
We were having the same problem and now it has completly crashed

I use freewebs.com and find it very good for my needs. I know very little html or webdesign, so the templates and tools they provide are useful to me. I’ve always found it very reliable too. If you can write your own code you can do that too. I’ve never had to use the tech support, so have no idea what it’s like.
