    Support? For a 2-3$ per year vps? You should not buy it if you thought that any kind of service like that will come with support. Read their TOS

    See this service as a game, test, hobby or something like that. Even LES from @Anthony cannot be used as anything more than that with expectations (even if my experience with LES is great and I actually host sites there). With 2-3$ per year, there cannot be real support or stability.

    Also, I do not know mtwiscool but, hey, from what people here say, all the drama happened about 2 years ago. He is a troubled kid that is growning and maybe he is trying to learn from his failures. Skylar from Crissic had a major failure with his previous venture and let many people pissed off, but he stood on his feet and now he owns and runs one of the best LET services out there.

    Anyway, mtwiscool -from my point of view- is not trying to harm anybody by selling yearly vps costed 2-4$ per year! Do you think that he is trying to steal your... money and run away?

    He was initially banned to protect him from himself and others. He then decided to appeal that ban by making a number of serious threats towards me over IRC and via tickets, after which I told him he's never coming back here as long as I'm in charge and that any further communication would be sent to the police. I haven't heard from him since.

    So why is he allowed to spam the IRC channel constantly?

    Probably because the IrC channel is an unofficial le* channel.

    Even if a few in charge here has powers there its a different "world".

    Anything goes in the channel.

    I believe he's banned from the channel under our control, if not, please flag it for an OP there.

    Other than William, there aren't any active OPs there. He has been spamming the channel with his life story for weeks.

    Not used IRC for years, maybe should look in if I can remember how IRC works. What is the channel?

    Yeh, don't join from your home IP. Get ZNC or IRC Cloud or something. irc.freenode.net / #lowendbox

    Please do not give your personal information to any operation involved with Matthew Morgan. He gives out access to WHMCS willy-nilly. An SQL dump of the WHMCS database has been obtained and I know of atleast two others in position of it.

    Images removed.

    So you said that you would help him and then stole his WHMCS database? Is that what you are telling us?

    So who took advantage of this kid?

  • Nice try Matthew.

  • So, correct me if I'm wrong, mtwiscool has autism. He makes threats, and then he buggers off after someone threatened to get police involved, he's 18, registered a company, he got hacked, and from stuff I've read, well, I went over briefly and there's a lot of crap about him.

    Did he even inform his clients that the website was breached or? I'm guessing not.

    He did send out the following mail at 22:20 GMT yesterday.

    You need to click forgot my password to login to your accounts due to a admin given details out(left screenshare on).
    All passwords are md5(salted) and we have locked the admin out.
    They is no payment details prosseed by the website so thoes can not be leaked.

  • @foetti said:

    covering passwords with md5 wtf

  • I swear some people are proper cunts.

    Granted, Matthew shouldn't be running a hosting business, but someone taking advantage of him like this is pure shithousery.

  • So who hacked Matthew's hosting business?

  • @Chuck said:

    Based on the above it might not be a hack, he appears to give people access to things quite freely.

  • Regardless of whether it was a hack or not, why the heck are we allowing it to stay up on here?

  • LeeLee Veteran

    I have removed the images of his WHMCS installation.

    "Aspergers" is thrown around way too much in this thread. First of all have a read as to what it actually means. It's more or less a catch-all term for a set of uncommon behaviours that turn out problematic in daily life, and there is no conclusive indication that it is really an identifiable 'thing', nor any one symptom that is always present.

    Bottom line: "aspergers" in and of itself is not a valid justification, excuse or explanation for any kind of issues that somebody is having. Somebody may have behavioural issues of some sort, but waving it away by saying "aspergers" is not the correct solution to that. Instead, remark on the actual behavioural problems, and address those...

    And no, somebody doesn't "have" aspergers.

    @joepie91
    There was only one person in this thread that mentioned Aspergers and you mentioned it twice as much as that poster. I don't call that "thrown around". Do you know Matthew and what his "diagnose" is?

  • how about Matthew gets unbanned so he can tell his side of the story?
