Checking in from the
Web Hosting Talk community. This whole shebang rings loudly for the web hosting industry. We deal with people like this every day, trying to steal services and not paying for bandwidth, etc. Full support to the guys at the shop and their families as they deal with this mess. Truly hope it works out for them in the end.
Kudos to the TR staff and their host/DC for the excellent service. You should certainly give them a shout out for their great uptime and stellar servers! Also high five to the admins here for keeping things interesting despite the epic-osity of this thread.
