Interesting. You make me wonder if Doug (the new blog post writer) actually works for the company or if he's even a real person.
I'm not sure where the O would come from, but if Doug and Jules turn out to be the same person, I'm calling him O'Doul's.

I'd also like to see this guy axed, but I can see why they'd want to keep him. Perhaps he holds enough specific technical knowledge that they have to keep him. What I'm unclear on is why Bernardo can't be invited back. Was his account deleted in such a way that it's unrecoverable? If so, they're keeping someone who deleted potentially months of a customer's work and data, and claiming it's within reason over one use…

> So let’s just recap a little; we have 1 account that is suspended with full access to a backup of their data and their domain names. We have another account that is fully terminated, with all data removed, due to severe breach of our terms.
The why seems to be swept under the rug in Doug's post.

TL;DR: I deleted all your backups over one swear word. Now I'm justifying it because profanity equals abuse.
which is illegal under an internet law I just made up. You could go to jail.

#35Again: enough. These people do not matter. We can stop wasting time talking about them. The travails of people who run into payment problems over $5 web hosting accounts do not constitute "Hacker News". This is a fake controversy. We do not need to evaluate what either side says; neither side matters. Flagged.

#391. Are there seriously smiley faces in this serious post defending your company? 2. From what I can understand, they suspended multiple accounts, one of which was paid in full. The paid in full account's owner cursed out the company on twitter. I assume everyone will agree with this statement, but I'll state it anyway: You can't cancel valid accounts! If the account is paid in full, and assuming the account isn't bei…

Thanks, but I'll make my own choice.
