When i used it years ago i didn't find any information on the weird stuff that
was going on and I didn't pull tons of data.  I used them before these changes
and they were fine.  They became 'eternalseptember' and then they started
sucking ass.

If you say so, but i used their service and it sucks. it's better to do what i
mentioned before and buy a small block with another provider that will last
forever.

People that tout how great eternalseptember is are pretty ignorant and
usually scrubs.

Because I don't have time in my life to to do stupid shit like that. I made a
smart decision and used a better provider.  That's what people who aren't
morons do. I believe I did open up a ticket about one of their weird error msgs
but they never answered back.

Sorry to have offended you! do you have a horse in this race?
