No! They're banned from LET, also known as X3Host.
They scam?
Scam.
Just wondering why WHT still allow them to post offers on forum.
If they have a paid membership, WHT protects them until it gets too messy.
They're running multiple brands (my guess is 5 brands / "employee"), most of them use nulled WHMCS, which they share on their own blackhat forum. Cannot recommend them at all.
Paid or not, WHT is setup to be an advertising forum.
you can't criticize or comment negatively on offers
any member there can post an offer, and they only ban members who break WHT rules, so if you're a scammer but don't break WHT rules, you can post as many offers as you like
they charge outrageous prices to be stickied in threads. Practically speaking, your offer will scroll off the category's front page within minutes if you're not stickied, effectively making stickying the only effective way to post.
Hence, everyone spams their sig, which means the forums are filled with nonsense and people desperate to randomly comment
WHT is a great textbook case of how not to run a hosting forum.
Much like their expired SSL certificate?
I am thinking stay away from hosticated.com as you guys told it's a scam, also thanks for the information.
WHT itself is expired. Had been there since 1998 when Matt owned it. Left there around 2010, I think, where the obvious greed was becoming too bold.
May be we should stick on the topic?
The topic is done - hosticated = x3host = scam. Was there something more to be said?
Now we're into bashing WHT which is much more fun.
I think you have the answer? X3host was given chances to amend things but blatantly ignored those chances and were, therefore, banned.
thank for all the infomations,
LET, where people come to get the real scoop on hosting providers.*
*Mostly because we're surprisingly picky for people who want dedicated servers for under $5/month.
You clearly don't want to touch anything that Combozo, x3host, hosticated, or whatever that clown calls himself tomorrow, offers. He's an incompetent joke, but not in the funny sense.
Ah - And WHT is a shithouse full of shills and signature blinkers.
Dedicenter is about 50,000 times better, and I had a host down for nearly 2.5 weeks before.
WHT insta banned me for shilling, after posting an honest review of a vendor i'd been with for a while. Their reasoning "Looks like shill, must be shill". Cancerous forums and toxic community to say the least.
Raindog summed this up perfectly.

Holy Necro Mama Mia.
One question before I read it:
Is it optimized?
Yes, it is baptimized.
