    I had many servers in the past but always got Fuc*ed over by not reading the TERMS OF CONDITIONS!!!! you guys should really do your homework b4 you buy any server. Here is what it says in this sites TOC.


    You may not use your virtual site to publish material, which Pro****Hosting.com determines, at its sole discretion, to be unlawful, indecent or objectionable. For purposes of this policy, "material" refers to all forms of communications including narrative descriptions, graphics (including photographs, illustrations, images, drawings, logos), executable programs, video recordings, and audio recordings.


    So if you bought into this guys scam Youve just been dooped. <_<

    All Im saying is that if you choose to buy a server so you can host files just be carefull cause if it sounds to good to be true then it is.Make sure you guys read the sites restrictions and TOS (or TOC)
    There is plenty of sites out there that are good, But there is also lot that are free. Just do your homework and compare prices. :)

    that form of "material" is subject to being viewed with the possibility of being deleted if those who run the site find it "to be unlawful, indecent or objectionable."

    That does not mean that they will just delete your files if they pertain to the "narrative descriptions, graphics (including photographs, illustrations, images, drawings, logos), executable programs, video recordings, and audio recordings." Just that they are subject to be viewed by the public and as the host of your website they have every single right to remove anything you put on their that they do not approve of.

    EVERY SINGLE hosting website has this ability to, at their sole descretion, remove your files if they find them "to be unlawful, indecent or objectionable." This is reguardless if it is within their TOS or TAC.

    If you want a truly free website where you can host anything, unlimited bandwith and such per month and everything. Download the appropriate servers, PhPMyAdmin, all the other stuff (if you would like help i can try to help you find all the files you need) and set it up on your own computer or an older computer that you dont use (a server really doesnt require too much) and you can use a simple free subdomain redirection site such as www.cjb.net to get your site a URL.

    It is quite simple to avoid this, no porno, no nudity (some anime renders MAY be considered nude), and no .mp3s. Not too extremely hard to avoid.
