I think you are stupid if this isn't free. It costs some time, but you get host with very good features, like cpanel and fantastico. And compare to some people here I know nothing about computers, but I'm only a week here and have already hosting. And you do not only get hosting space, you also get help. And I need much help, and they give it to me. There such nice people here and that'... read more.

Astahost : Your Service Is Not Free - astahost : shouldn't call it free

atruthful webber
astahost : you should not call your service free as it isn't - as you demand 50 posts then in fact you are trading your service for people's content. I'm not giving you lots of content to get a bit of space. I only use free services, not paid ones that stupidly lie and pretend to be free. On yer bikes, you wrong'uns, you ignorant time wasters..............................

then why are you posting here?

it is in fact free in the sense it doesn't cost you a dime, it is quite easy to post here, so I don't really see a problem

Ignore him smile.gif What more can you expect from an ignorant fool who don't really have brains enough to contribute something meaningful other than random junk?

He's talking about not sharing his content here - but he misses out on the whole spirit of this forum.. To help each other out with computer problems and get help in return. I don't think there's NOT a single person on this board, who hasn't received anything back in return of all the time and posts that he/she's been devoting. This is, apart from the great free hosting services offered by OpaQue. Besides, he doesn't even even have the decency of pointing out some of his so called "Totally Free" sites which offer the range of features that our host offers. And he call's himself a "Truthful Webber" - irony or just flat-out display of having never developed a cerebral cortex advanced enough to be called a full human?

The attitude displayed is nothing short of "pedantic" - and a gross disregard for so many thousand members who happily intermingle and help each other out on this board. He's alone the Know-All - bow to him folks tongue.gif He's come amongst us... be terrorized wink.gif What more do I need to say ?

You know, as an afterthough, I think he's one of the people who came in, in the past few days, and applied for hosting without making even a single post. I rebuked a few of them before denying hosting. So he probably came back to rant it out here - but obviously, he won't see that he himself is at fault for being denied hosting. Lol.. what a fool.

m^e

P.S. I know what to do with this post - moved to "Comments & Feedbacks" wink.gif

Think before you post. This froum does not need slatering. If you are going to slater it, at least have some exacting evidence to back up your comments, if not, take a HIKE off a cliff. (A little extreme I know).

Your not actually paying anything are you. Its kinda like saying a girl is a ***** if she wants you to spend time with you before you sleep together.

But, Yes, it is true. You dont get anything for nothing, that just dosnt work, people might have tried but in the end it dosnt work. If you want pay quality webhost then you have to give something for it. Here you give some time, you might even enjoy it. But if its such a pain then just go out and work, get some money and pay someone to host you.

Some people find life puzzling and never understand why others work or pay bills. Why people make commitments and feel that buying is wholesome but trading is divine.

That when they try and fail it is their short coming and not others they blame for causing them to fail.

Usually people like that spend their life in institutions. I hope you have not reached that stage seek help.

Actually, most other hosting sites are not free either... For example, the ones with ads/pop-ups/frames gives you space, but you are actually giving them money by advertising them or their sponsors. There are sites that don't have them, but they are usually really crappy. Downtime and data loss is what you have to pay in order to get the service. This service may consume some of our users' time, but quality hosting is what you get in return!

It's really not that difficult to make a few posts every few days and it does not cost any actual money to use this service. Very few other places privide the quality of service that this site provides. Is it really that hard to make a few posts in return for really good service.

Why you don't just check a dictionary for it? Check the word free and you'll find this:

Free: something you don't pay any money for

So at least the dictionary says Astahost is free.... personaly I don't care what you think, I just like Astahost like it is.

Well if you look at it that way then no free service is free. They all want something for their service, whether it is an email address (so that they can sell it to spamers or email you ads), put ads on your site, or even force you to participate in surveys. Thankfully Astahost does not do any of that. Sure they want their members to post in their forum in exchange for free hosting, but I don't mind. I would rather do that then have ads forced onto my site, or emailed to me, or even pay money that I do not have.

However, warbird is right...

  5. Why Its So Hard To Get Hosting At Astahost
    Feedback and some suggestions (24)
    I think the reason why its so hard to get hosting here at Astahost is because of its technical
    nature. While many of us who haven't got hosting yet (me included) know a fair bit about
    Computers and other technical aspects there isn't much need to share it here, since the
    auidience is made up mainly of people with the same amount of knowledge or more. Most of the
    tutorials to be written have been written I think. Many helpful tips that would benefit people, we
    all already know. To make "quality" posts you must not just be technically minded but be the best of

  6. Astahost Can Have A Wiki?
    As the first stickied thread of every forum (6)
    I was just wondering if this was feasible after what Mark420 or someone mentioned in one of the
    threads around here. Each of the forum section would have a Wiki, which would have eventually
    contain a good summing up of all that happens in the forums. Once members participate in a thread,
    solve a problem, discuss, or come up with something, we could put that info in the Wiki of that
    section almost summing up and polishing all the information the thread had gained. That way, some
    one wanting to search the knowledge base would really find it easy to get what they need. ....
  7. Ideas To Improve Astahost
    My thoughts as an experienced webmaster (8)
    One thing I see wrong already is the title, "Free Web Hosting" on the main page. This just screams
    unprofessional and tells people that Astahost shouldn't be taken seriously. I think you should
    change the title to, "Astahost | Quality Web Hosting for Free" or something of that sort. This
    greatly improves the standards and shows people how great the hosting here is, while the current,
    "Free Web Hosting" sounds like typical web hosting you can find at any other crappy free web host.
    Because who wants "Free Web Hosting" when they can have "Quality Web Hosting for Free?"....
  8. My Thoughts On Astahost
    various comments as an Astahost User (4)
    I have been on Astahost for quite a while and decided to make an honest review on my thoughts about
    this host. Astahost is a really nice web host. I found that the product itself is comparable to
    paid hosting such as http://www.rydia.net . But the neatest aspect of Astahost, in my opinion, is
    the kindness and flexibility of the staff members. Honestly, if you go to support in ANY other free
    web hoster, they just say "too f&$$ing bad, CASE CLOSED!" But the staff members here work hard for
    you . And as though the bandwidth isn't enough in Astahost (which it is, by t....
  9. Holy Crap! I Didn't Know This About Astahost!
    :: -30 credits = off with your site :: (13)
    Holy crap, I'm going to complain about Astahost. From a poster here: QUOTE Once your
    hosting credit reach a negative number, your site will be taken down. Once it reaches -30, your
    account will be terminated and all files will be deleted. So as long as you don't get down to
    -30, all your files will still be intact. OH CRAP!!! I am NOT secure with Astahost. What if I
    croak? Or get kidnapped? Run over by a car? Struck with lightning?!!! I want my site to be here
    after I die! Lets see, I'm 14, most people live to 100 so: 100 - 14 = 86 I can only maint....
  10. Praise For Astahost
    Free webhosting was never this good (2)
    Just one week ago, my account with Astahost was suspended out of the blue. I wasn't out of
    hosting credits, so it's not possible that I'm suspended due to a lack of hosting credits. I
    waited for days for my account to come back, I PMed the admins like Nilsc who replied that my
    account was suspended due to "higher cpu usage". I thought, this was it, that's what you get for
    free web-hosting. I thought my account is terminated. Then I emailed OpaQue, and he kindly took
    time to restore my account despite him being busy with setting up a new server over at Co....

    I'll be checking in every now and then), but I'm going to leave to go to Xisto Group's
    paid hosting service, I'm looking at all of the plans, and developing some original scripts for
    my site, then I expect to create my hosting account there late August- early September. But you will

    Well, I didn't find another place to post this... As all (most) of you, I started posting here
    becouse I wanted to get hosted, but now I feel like a part of this forum. It's like a huge
    family. You guys want to make a quality forum with quality members posting quality posts. I think
    you are on the right way to do it. Keep up the awesome work /biggrin.gif' border='0'

  14. The Name Game
    What's the basis for the name Astahost? (19)
    There's usually a story behind every name. Sometimes the message or the story is obvious
    othertimes it isn't. What is the story behind the naming of this domain Astahost? Mine?
    Hashbang is a shortened version of #!/bin/bash (hashbangslashbinslashbash). I choose this some time
    ago and have used it in other online forums. It reflects my passion for *nix systems and using the
    command line. I don't always use the bash shell but I find it's the most user friendly. And
    what is the story behind your own login name here? cheers hashbang ....
