I hope I can make you a Troll tag

One day perhaps when you get promoted to an admin and if LET still stands.

AnthonySmith

@FAT32 thanks for the phat effort.

Neoon

@FAT32 You should get paid.

Second, some stuff that has been handed out, is a fucking joke.
Shared Hosting for 19EUR/y with 2GB Storage? on LET?

Besides, some people really put out decent stuff, props to these.
But some should be really ashamed what they put here.

Well he gave himself a $50 prize so there's that!

Seriously though, thanks for running the poll this time around!

Edit:

yes --> will PM you ;-)

Sometimes I enjoy doing stuff like this, it is like escaping from busy life for a while so don't worry. The efforts of Ant in the past years in LET and Neoon's Free NAT project are what build up this community too.

Of course, without the sponsorship of the providers, this provider poll will be less attractive, so I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank all the providers on sponsoring the prizes.

In addition, I am pretty sure other moderators are working hard on maintaining the community too, so it is not just myself but the team that brings the value.

HostDoc

Wow.
Today has been an aweful day and coming back and seeing this has really made my day.
This is the first polls we have officially been a participant of and I honestly cannot believe we placed shared 8th place best provider and 3rd most responsive It is an absolute honour.
Thank you to all those who voted for HostDoc. On a day like this, such news could not have come at a better time.
Thank you for trusting our service, utilising it and sharing your experience with others.
We have made some mistakes along the way, thank you to those clients who stuck with us through some of the hardest times.
Blood, sweat and tears have gone into the service we provide and it is a great feeling when you realize others have recognised the effort put into providing the service.

For the winners of our prizes, a valid account will be needed.
If you do not currently have one, you will need to create one and pass our fraud check. Once done please either open a ticket or PM here to add the prize to your account.

Thank you @FAT32 for organising this
