Shit happens. Hit delete and move on.

I usually would Urb mate - this webmaster has over 60 sites listed.... didn't want to delete them without giving the webmaster a chance to explain if it was deliberate or not.... will give her another 24 hours.....

jennym · 2003-10-12, 12:07 PM

Like SS said, some hosts have several "data centers" to distribute info. If one of those "data centers" is down, then some of the info will not be available (this is why the page will load, but have a broken image sometimes). The host will also allow that custom 404 (missing) page, which could be located on a different "data center". I have never had a problem with this submitter, and I will wait a little while before I remove any sites.

I actually saw a thread on revsharehosting doing this recently... looking for it.....

Free hosting is free hosting;(

Sumrpal · 2003-10-12, 08:59 PM

Ok, this isn't freehosting. That's real domain on a paid host. Owned by a guy, Brav (Michael), who lives mostly in Vancouver, commutes sometimes to Calgary (I don't know why).

It's a holiday weekend in Canada. He may be off doing the weekend thing, I don't know. I sent him an email to his ISP address.

I've known him for a long time and I can't believe that this is trickery in any way. I can't guarantee it isn't, but I find it hard to believe that it is cheating in any way.

Just my 2¢ Cdn

Surfn · 2003-10-12, 09:06 PM

To someone who has had to endure more than their share of cheaters over the years this raises all kinds of red flags for me.

Cleo · 2003-10-12, 09:06 PM

Damn I thought Brav was a woman, oops. |ohhhhh|

Actually I thought this was the same person who spells their name Brave who I do think is a woman. I just thought that they sometimes left of the e. |confused|

Anyway it doesn't make any difference.

You're right mate, that's what I'd have done.

While I'm thinking about it, someone was posting about useful features of a link list script??? Well, how about a temporary category to place suspect sites without deleting them?

jennym · 2003-10-13, 10:06 PM

This seems to be working fine for me now. I refreshed about 30 times with no problems. What about for everyone else?

doublep · 2003-10-14, 02:41 AM

I had a couple of vague emails from the webmaster regarding this - this was the last one I got after asking him what the issues were with his host... "Something about it not propagating to the new server. So sometimes it came
up, and other times went to a 404/missing page."

:/

urb · 2003-10-14, 09:09 AM

This thread was started 3 days ago. So when did propogation start for him?

How does it look when you refresh now mate??

Sumrpal · 2003-10-14, 09:20 AM

It all works perfectly for me now. The other day, as I clicked through his freesite, I would occassionally get that 404 page, but I just clicked on every link in the site and everything came up fine.

I think he needs to wait a little longer between the time he uploads the site and submitting. Give it time to propagate through all the server mirrors.

The site he subbed looks fine now mate... havn't checked the others he has listed but I will do though... thing I don't understand is why would anyone change the DNS info without putting up the files in the first place... but there you go.. I have decided to let it slide this time, for now... benefit of the doubt and all that...

urb · 2003-10-14, 12:04 PM

Glad to hear it's all sorted.

But I would go back and check in a few days. You never know.

I don't think he changed DNS info. Revshare has the site on several data centers....as he said, it just wasn't propagated to all servers for some reason.

Surfn · 2003-10-14, 01:34 PM

Damned freehosts

I'm not really sure what he did either... like I said, he was a bit vauge in his emails to me... anyway, his sites are still listed

Brav · 2003-12-01, 08:00 PM

Hmm, never saw this thread last time I was here.

I don't think I recieved your e-mail Sumrpal but one of my old ISP e-mails is gone. Thanks for the kind words

The problem was what SS had mentioned, only way I knew how to explain it was that all files had not propagated. This was in no way intentional.

Sorry about that everybody.

urb · 2003-12-02, 08:58 AM

Ignore this post.

I'm going offline until my brain is back into gear.
