I agree. This place is dead, or almost dead. I really liked the hosting too, it seemed fast, and nice, and being able to post-to-host.
But I can't deal with the ownership problems anymore. Way too many of them, and they don't seem to know how to set up the apache server correctly.
Not to mention there's only one guy answering tickets, which can take a week. He was very nice, but no one wants to waste this much of their life
just on server crap. I've never, ever had ownership problems with any other host, including many free hosts. First time I've run into it, and can't solve the
riddle. It's just Joomla for crying out loud! lol. Yea, I tried this out for a week, but it was a pretty large waste of my time. Onto something bigger and better!

how did you try out post to host if you aren't even earning any mycents yet? stop spamming this forum and making up stories. this place is for serious discussions only

KnowledgeSutra/Trap17 is not falling anywhere. This site runs mainly due to our guests and a BIG part of GUEST module was lost. I have now re-created that module and I expect traffic to come back to normal in the next 2 months. This way I can attract free web hosting members. Only with new members coming into the forums, this place will become automatically lively.

Considering BuffaloHelp, I understand he has been a bit busy, but I am sure he will soon find time and be back at the forums.

I expect the traffic to the forums to rise soon. The only thing remaining is to attract new members And hope the old members drop by soon due to low mycents.

so how do you plan on attracting new members after pissing off the old members. magic? what secret do you have under your sleeve. you lost half the old members when you changed your domain name, and you lost another half after the forum went spammy and unmanned except for 1 or two mods even THAT wasn't enough for all the spam we were getting.

i see you've been busy lately. that's a good thing. i hope it is not just a phase but i don't think you will be getting back a lot of your old members. i hope i am wrong. i would just concentrate on getting new ones in what i hope is a new and improved forum in all areas of business and common sense and caring enough about the comunity that it doesn't get abandoned again

I find it interesting that this topic string has popped up again,,,,

given that I have a vested interest in Computing host, and have been an active contributor to the forum both in the last 12 months and 3 years ago.... I can understand Anwii's frustrations with the drop in activity and the ongoing battle with Spam.

It will be a definate loss to this community if many more of the active contributors leave for greener pastures, however I find it very difficult to continue to contribute to a site that last week had no activity for 3 days...

Durring this same time I was despirately trying to resolve clients issues with hosting and yet again there was no support at all...

Its just such a real shame as I've send many clients to host here, and as of yesterday, 3 of my clients are no looking to relocate to more sustainable hosting solutions....

A real shame, i was a member or Trap17 and am hosted here and in computing host, unfortunately when it comes to client support, i can no longer see a reason why I should endure the greif that hosting with xisto continues to offer...

Hopefully things settle down and return to the service levels I expect and was recieve over the past few years, becuase if they fail to improve I will have no other option than to find a hosting solution that does not cause me or my clients any issues.

Lets hope that things look up for xisto, KS and Trap members... It would be a shame to loose such a great community....

cheers

I am afraid I have to agree.

I, too, have spent nearly four happy years here, with great hosting features, a great uptime of the sites, great and helpful support and more.

Then, about this forum itself, it used to be full of competent, knowledgeable and helpful people, and, more often than not, if you ever posted about a technical problem here, chances were you had a bunch of answers in less than half an hour.

Now, most of those people do not seem to be here anymore, spam is growing quickly here, the forum is incredibly slow to load and as fr the Xisto hosting, I have had two tickets where I had a reply the senior management was looking into my problem, and after weeks of that, the problems are still there.

No, things have defnitely changed here and at Xisto, and certainly not for the better.
