I see the bind alot of you must be in, and as i offered you guys were able to use what i had to offer if needed on my cloud. I then realized it was really not much I could offer so i sent an email over to HFW to the manager I been dealing with since the start up of my first Dolphin site, and I got them to donate some free cloud servers if that will help some of you guys out, i know some of you had made payments to dosdawg and might not have to money to grab a new server at this very moment.. they offered up 30 cloud accounts free for a month, be it you use it to run your site till you find out for sure what you are going to do, or even if you just need to store your data for now, the offer is here
this was the response..... "We can do about 30 free cloud servers - "Start" plan clouds, details here: http://hostforweb.com/cloud/managed_cloud.html "
not sure how much if any this will help you guys, i know this is troubling times but the offer is here if you want.

good to see community pulling together to help each other on this one!

To be clear, Root Baron isn't necessarily closing (THS was winding-up in favor of Root Baron - clients were pushed over to Root Baron as their next invoices became due). It's John's choice to continue the operation however he sees fit (servers or no servers, evidently). I won't recommend a replacement host for displaced folks, either (for obvious reasons).

you saying you wont recommend a replacement host, and your whole post, was that just your way at taking a shit on hfw for just making a generous offer to help those people out that you guys put in a really messed up situation??
i personally thought this was a very very friendly offer for hfw to make out of the goodness of their hearts, you polly should had thanked them for offering to help in some way to those people you guys put is a situation like this!

I mean I won't make any recommendations in order to leave it up to former customers to head anywhere they like. Anyone who wants to take advantage of special offers or promotions from other hosts are more than welcomed to (and encouraged). I simply won't show a bias towards any one host. This isn't some sly attempt to keep business with John (clearly I don't like that idea, because I made that topic).
"You guys?" I'm the one who sounded the alarms and have been moving sites for free to other hosts for those who ask. I've spent these past few days restoring sites on new servers, rebuilding sites from outdated backups, and reconfiguring servers to be compatible with Dolphin. Because I want to see more misfortune, of course.
