Yes i remember that deal... it was for life.
Whats with MT? I'm hearing so many bad things?
Have they been bought out?
- de4k0
i got the deal back in 2005, I've had no major problems with the service, and any minor issues have been resolved quickly via their cust services. I'm paying the same now on gs as I was two years ago for my basic ss, which is about £25pa.
I can't be the only one...

two words... media temple.
media temple is bullshit. i know alot of people on the web (expecially on this website) are way gay about media temple and how amazing they are. so ill either get bashed or erased for saying this.. but my experience has been that their service absolutely sucks. as the manager of interactive media at my company, i was in charge of finding a host for our projects. we went to media temple first, because they had what we needed, and were supposed to be the best. well turns out they are not. didnt want to work with us in fixing problems (they had alot of issues with their coldfusion services at that time), and were basically just assholes about it. something along the lines of "it's not our problem".

This is Jason Mcvearry here. As always, thank you for your comments!
I'm fairly sure there is some misunderstanding here.
Nothing is unsolvable, so

Hi'sss.
To be honest I've never hosted with MT. Their sponsorship stuff - ya it's cool..... they make a pretty (huge) penny off referrals from it too - so don't think they're just doing it cause they're kind :). I do remember though that back in the day when acta divina was competing for business in the design realm with MT, MT got all knotted up and started blocking emails from anyone that hosted with acta from coming into any MT server.... pretty dirty.
That being said. I'll skip out cause I actually find their prices expensive.
I use dreamhost, and have for about 3 years now - and they're amazing. I've only had to contact them once ever - and they fixed the issue in about 45 minutes.
I'm on the code monster package. Good deal for two years, plus -- all of your bandwidth and server hard drive space continues to grow every day that you keep hosting with them.
I started with 386gb of space, and now have 460gb.
started with monthly bandwidth of 3800 gb, now have 5331gb.
and they're solid. :).
Highly reco.

Unfortunately, the discount for 'newstoday' is no longer valid and is only applied to your existing service. Please note we do have the (dv) Dedicated-Virtual 3.0 available for clients. We are applying one month credit free, to give you time to migrate all of your files.

anyone have the DV 2.0... I will have to downgrade to the GRID if the price isn't discounted, does it work just as well?
- horton0
email jason, sounds like he'll set things straight.
- bunka0
will do thanks
- kerus0
you might want to wait until they get the grid working properly to downgrade. I have a really simple and fairly empty wordpress setup on my site and it absolutely crawls.
id imagine a bigger site might have serious issues. hell, ive had on an off problems with even my shell account. they have a lot of work left to restore the reputation they had.
tying to be patient but its getting kinda rough.
