Heh. Yeah, and so much for keeping ANY word they have spoken.
Server A, indeed.
"Grandfathered", indeed.
First it *was* billed as being grandfathered. (Back when it was Server A)
As in "from now on", as it was at Best.
Then we learn that 'grandfathered' to them is grandfathered for a year.
Then we learn that we're getting a 'new product specifcally designed for...'
Now we learn that they aren't ethical enough to honor what they said a
month ago and we're "grandfathered" for a WHOLE fscking month.
Verio thinks they are a bank. Change the agreement whenever they want,
however they want. "Agreement" is a one way word to them.
When the migration started, I mirrored my remaining site to another
provider. My DNS is already changed.
