I have recently signed up for a free hosting account at 000webhost.com, and I know that “free” comes with a few catches, or in this case 22 of them, but they really are something else.
They promised 1500mb of storage space and 100gb of monthly bandwidth. Since all I wanted was to install a phpBB board for some of my friends and me, that sounded like more than enough.
However, not 2 weeks have passed and my account got suspended with this message:
“Suspended (Unmanaged or abandoned website that allows anonymous posting. MySQL database is overloaded with thousands of junk records. To get your account unsuspended please upgrade to our premium hosting.)”
Let’s dissect:
Unmanaged - Not sure what this is supposed to mean, but I guess they are implying that users were running amok and posting child pornography and warez all around. Which they were not.
Abandoned - They probably want to say that I haven’t logged into my account frequently enough. I guess 10 times every day just doesn’t cut it.
Anonymous - Oh no, these people want their privacy. They must be doing something illegal.
Overloaded - “While we did promise you 1,5gb of storage space, but come on, you have already filled almost 3%!!!!”, I hear them say.
Junk Records - This one baffles me the most. I’m sure all other free accounts on 000webhost contain records filled with cancer medications, AIDS prevention techniques, ways to get to the moon on a bike and similar amazing information (TM), so our petty little chatting looks like junk. And “thousands” is somewhere around 5 thousands, not 500 like they made it sound.
“To get our GREAT AND TOTALLY AWESOME SERVICE to work again, please GIVE US MONEY.” I did intend to make an upgrade, but to hell with them, there is no way that I will pay them now. I just hope they will be fair enough to allow me to download a backup of the database before I abandon their unmanaged junk of a website.

I’m one of those people who just love making gaming references in real life. Making remarks about leveling up, graphics… I’m there. When I accidentally found out about “Level Up”, a new series about to come out, that’s set on doing just that - merging real life and gaming - I was like “HELL YEAH!”, but after I’ve just seen the pilot episode I’m all like “HELL NO!”Maybe you wonder why?Acting is horrible. I’m pretty sure that this thing is targeted at younger kids, so young in fact, that they don’t even have “poor acting” in their everyday vocabularies. So there’s an excuse to hire poor actors. It’s for kids. I guess the same goes for the script. (some stupid remark) (gamingpop culture reference) (insult 1 and 2 for LULZ)
Characters are totally stereotypical. We have 3 guys, out of which one is a popular jock and hides the fact that he’s gaming because it would RUIN HIM. Games ruin lives! Remember that. It’s 2011. and you can’t be popular andor have friends if you play games. There’s a positive message about gaming for all of you out there. Later on, somebody probably realized that they’re missing a female character so they add in a girl just to fill all of the requirements. Her weapon sucks monkey balls, by the way. All of them are, in fact, looking like cheap toys. Check out the visual aids to the right and see for yourself.The game they’re playing is obviously an MMO, with “tens of thousands of players playing”. WHOA! Tens of thousands! It must be the biggest game out there! WOW currently has 10.3 MILLION people playing. I wouldn’t normally complain about the subscription count of a fictional video game, BUT THEY SHOW AN ENORMOUS SKYNET-LOOKING SERVER FARM IN THE FIRST EPISODE. And we’re meant to believe it’s only one of many. WHO ARE THEY FOR? All those countless tens of thousands of players? Come on…. We meet the programmer who made the game in the first episode as well. No surprise there - they portray him as a Peter Pan figure who refuses to grow up and acts like a spoiled brat with no sense of reality. SO MUCH LUV FOR GAMERZ! Thank you Level Up!The monsters are lame. And inconsistent. Some of them are CG. Some of them are people playing dress up. You know what, Level Up? Either have all of the monsters CG or have NONE of them. This looks really stupid. Oh yeah, and the CG is awful, as expected.But, all that aside, my biggest complaint is about the show itself. It’s about gaming. That’s cool. But it’s trying to be edgy about all the wrong things. Gaming is huge today. It’s not for “nerds” and “no life geeks”. Almost everybody I know plays games, at least once in a while. And they’re perfectly normal people. Why succumb to the stone age premise and make gamers look like total idiots? If this show is being made for gamers, shouldn’t it send a positive message about them? Big bang theory fucks this up occasionally, but this one is out of the box obnoxiously wrong about everything. They are indeed making a show for gamers. Purely to take their money and give some neigh-sayers (hello everypony!) and parents more verbal ammo to shoot at gamers. Because games make you violent and prone to breaking law and the only use you’ll ever have from playing games is if, by any chance, games merge with real life and you have to kill a troll or two. This series is totally unimaginative, lacks interesting characters and story, misses the point of gaming and sends an almost completely negative vibe about video games. Why? TO TAKE YOUR GOLDS! ALL YOUR GOLDS ARE… you get it….
ONE FINAL NOTE: THE DISCO BALL JOKE WAS HORRENDOUS. Somebody actually got paid to write that?Don’t watch this shit.

My first attempt at making a home made Death Note. I’m satisfied with the result, although I expect it to start peeling off pretty soon.
I hesitate to write my name inside, don’t know why.

There aren’t enough reaction faces on the Internet to describe my reaction to this bullshit.
This has to be one of the dumbest attempts to sound “geeky” and/or “leet” I have ever seen. Maybe you have fun writing your little Kotaku articles using an Xbox controller, and I’m sure it allows you to capture all of your “bright moments” (in massive sarcasm quotes) just fine, but if you actually tried doing something serious with your computer you would ditch that GAMEpad (as in, “to be used for gaming”) and use a keyboard like a normal person.
Female gamers aren’t that rare anymore, can we finally move on as a species and stop treating them as something special? Because they aren’t. Not in any higher percentage than male gamers are. But yeah, to be a male in the gaming world you actually have to achieve something since growing breasts isn’t an option. Most of the time.
If I give this any more thought it will probably end up being even more of a tl;dr mess, so I’ll stop.

Fluttershy : How dare you… How dare you! Listen here, mister! Just because you’re big, doesn’t mean you get to be a bully! You may have huge teeth, and sharp scales, and snore smoke, and breathe fire… But you do not, I repeat, you do not! Hurt! My! Friends! …You got that?
