"Error 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED): The server refused the connection." The page is down.
They do not serve https for the site, what else are you expecting to see?
Not running SSL should be considered a bit of a Faux pas.
Sorry, and I really don't mean to be a grammar nazi, but it's "if I were". It's a subjunctive.

> I have no simply no trust left that this will go well (which is why wanted to take the refund). Hindsight is 20/20, but lifetime service claim sounds too good to be true anyway. Besides, was that 5-6 years of hosting for $500?
It seems quite reasonable when you consider that they used the money to bootstrap their operations: Take some money upfront to buy the servers, and in exchange host a bunch of people for free, covering the operating costs from other income. It was ~6 years in total duration for me (though used on and off). I recognize that buying monthly hosting for an entirety of 6 years is not cheaper, but it's not what I bought. I…
The early adopters didn't just buy a product, they were essentially angel investors.
It's every bit as ridiculous as sending Ron Conway an email thanking him for his help but informing him that his equity has been "discontinued", since the investment was a long time ago and no longer convenient, but warmly offering him a refund for his portion of the round.

It's not a load issue. Disable HTTPS Everywhere.
It wasn't that either. It didn't work for me, and for many other people. See the thread for simple `curl http://whatever-joyent` failing.

"lifetime" "unlimited" "forever" etc products should always been looked at sceptically for that reason. Anything that is either finite or requires up-keep cannot be offered on these terms, it is just impossible. I actually avoid unlimited products on purpose because I think a lie is a bad way to start doing business together. Be it web-hosting, broadband, or anything else. I would prefer they just be up front and the…

Anything that is either finite or requires up-keep cannot be offered on these terms, it is just impossible. When a company is offering "lifetime", "unlimited", "forever" et al, the most likely reason is it is cash strapped and is hoping to raise some cash with these lucrative schemes.
