Default Hostgator Being Acquired by EIG (ex. iPowerweb)

This sounds like a loser for Hostgator customers, but the people who own iPage.com, FatCow.com, justhost.com, NetFirms, IPowerWeb, Bluehost, FastDomain, DomainHost, eHost, PureHost seem to have now added Hostgator to their list.

I have never had any good experience with the gator. Tried them once and they were over loaded, slow as snot and incompetent.

They deleted one of my scripts once and then later told me via phone support that yes, that was a mistake, we thought your script kind of looked like one that was causing problems.

I do realize they should protect them selves and their other customers but in this instance it was just a bunch of high school type junior admins being stupid.

I could go one with about 5 other stupid things they did to piss me off before I had had enough and closed my account.

So, how are these guys going to go down hill now? Far as I am concerned they are already at the frigging bottom.

Actually it is kind of a good thing for me as I own a small web hosting company. The more stupid crap they pull and the more over loaded and slow they get, the more people eventually get tired of them and look for something better.
