If you’ve had trouble accessing BittBox in the past few days, I apologize. I’ve been with GoDaddy for over 5 years, and it’s had it’s ups and downs, but I just couldn’t take it anymore, so I got pissed and switched to (mt) Media Temple over-night. Here’s my story:

A few days ago I submitted a trouble ticket when some software on my GoDaddy server locked up, and a few hours later, they replied stating that they had resolved the issue, and charged me $75. Great……wait, what? My site doesn’t work anymore!

I hadn’t changed a single setting on my server and the BittBox homepage wouldn’t load. So I called GoDaddy again, and another 6 hours go by, and they tell me that it’s my .htaccess file that’s causing the problem. So, in a nutshell, not only was my site down, but I PAID GoDaddy $75 to f*ck it up. Awesome, right?

Anyway, that’s just one of many stories. I was sooo pissed, I didn’t even flinch. I immediately called MediaTemple and bought a new hosting account, and started uploading. After I was about 50% done uploading, I switched the DNS and this morning I canceled my GoDaddy account. I’m looking forward to this fresh start, and again, I apologize to those of you who were inconvenienced by GoDaddy’s incompetence.
