Hi
We are working on our servers due to an urgent hardware fault. We
are aware of these and
our senior programmers are looking into them at the moment. We
hope to have the site fully
functional again ASAP. In the mean time please bear with us and I
thank you for your
continued patience and support.
However, we did receive notice from a visitor to your page that
objectionable material was
being displayed. It is our policy to delete any objectionable web
sites from our servers
without warning to the owner. This policy as well as any other
policies can be found in
our FAQ file. Because you are a valued site owner and we did
award you a domain name and
100 MB of free space, we have reviewed your site and our team has
deemed it as acceptable
viewing material.
Unfortunately, this 'concerned visitor' may have been someone who
does not like the
content or the more likely scenario would be that they have a
personal grudge against you
and saw fit to try and get your site removed. I say the second
one is more likely because
I have the e-mail in my possession and it reads to myself as well
as the team as a
'personal grudge'. For legal reasons, we are unable to reveal the
author to you.
As I said, we took it under advisement, reviewed your site, and
found no fault. I would
suggest however, putting up copyright notices on you image pages.
Many fan pages have
been removed because the material is owned by another party.
I apologise for the problems you are experiencing and we hope to
have our servers
functional ASAP.
Regards
XXXXXXXXXXXX

Whoopee!!!
Can you believe the dude spelled APOLOGIZE wrong? Sheesh!!! I
took out the guys name
that wrote me the e-mail cuz I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate over
700 flames about
shutting a site down. So I take the e-mail to mean that they had
server problems AND
someone wrote a damn letter trying to screw me. I thought I had a
great 'relationship'
with everyone on the lists - I guess this shows me that maybe not
everyone can appreciate
the finer points of my personality. Oh well....screw'em!!! I
don't write for other
people--I write simply because it brings me joy, and if you get
joy out of it then, well,
that's a bonus for you. I say the list because I belong to about
9 of them (one of which
I'm a moderator for) and I only have about 2 or 3 real life
friends that know about the
archive and they are Kimber-friendly. *grin*
You know, this is the first time I've ever seen Fortunecity be
'fair' about material on a
website. Half a brownie point for them! Sooooo....I'm up and
running again and
everything seems to be 'normal'. Or, as normal as anything that
has to do with me can get
*grin*.
Thanks for all the suggestions on webspace. If I get screwed
again, I'm probably just
gonna run with simplenet - it's not a bad little service from what
a lot of you have told
me. You guys really pulled through for me and what can I say
*sniff sniff* I'm gettin
all bleary eyed! Seriously, thanks bunches!!!!!!
YOU GUYS ROCK
