"HostRocket sucks ass", while a tempting thread title, isn't so work friendly, so I'd be against it.
How about "Natter 13: HostageRocket has 13 letters. COINCIDENCE?!" Or is that too long?
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Ooo! Dropped by on a hunch and am delighted to see we're up and running again.

BTW - are we planning any serious payback to hostagerocket?
At the very least we can spread the news so that others can avoid being put in the position we are.
But, are we so satisfied to have escaped them that we rule out legal action? I mean they did get some money for us for upgrade to "semi-dedicated" status that never worked right. And we had a lot of down time during hostage negotiations. And we lost data the during the first hostage negotiation.
So are we going to at least consider taking them to small claims court to recover some of this damage? At the very least might we have one of Buffista lawyers or lawyers to be write them a polite demand letter for compensation (one that does not include any overt threat of legal action, other than being written on legal stationary) amd then decide whether actual legal action is warranted depending upon the response.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How do you know he didn't, huh?

'Cause I voted, and my name isn't on the list.

Firefly 5: In case you forgot, HostRocket sucks ass
Lacks.. poetry.
I'm large with the Firefly We're Still Flying love.
Because we are, and it is. And it's enough.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I'm gonna be contrary, and admit I don't like "Still Flying." Because it's not, and I'm still bitter.
Cool with "If wishes were horses" or "Too damned pretty to die."

(By the way, thanks to ita and everyone else who worked and toiled and dealt with crazy morons to get this site back up.)

I think we just need a thread that says: ITA IS A GODDESS AND HOSTILEROCKET CAN BITE OUR VIRTUAL ASSES.
Or words to tthat effect.
