they probably meant greater than the time paypal requires to not do a chargeback but less than the time the FBI catches up with them.

Has anybody been in the chatroom today? I have been in #cyberwings at chat.webmaster.com (java) and there seems to be people in the room, but nothing being said and no posts regarding moderation. have they changed chatrooms (again?)?

They are keeping it moderated to keep the so called "naysayers" at bay. You can venture into #wingtalk if you like, but there are still no answers anywhere. The only person that knows what is truly going on is Shawn. He is either working his can off getting this going, or lounging on a beach in the tropics enjoying the fruits of his online scam!

not

Wow. With dead-on gut instincts like that, it's a wonder you got taken.

Laugh if you want, but the proof is in the pudding. If you don't want to get raped again, you're going to actually have to do some work to check out your "hot deals." bsdwebhosting.net actually has a business plan which is what CW didn't, and which is why you were taken. They charge you for how much space you use, how much bandwidth you actually use, and how much stress you put on their servers. I have a small, personal website, with a low amount of email, and very little bandwidth usage, so, you can probably guess how I get by on a dime a month. Now, if you run a decent sized webpage, you might want to do the calculations, and they give you the figures to do that if you'd bother to do some research instead of relying on your emotions.

Of course, what you do with your money is up to you, and there's one contented dude sipping a pina-colada who's doubtless glad for that truth.

Just caught the end of a chat session with CEO a few minutes ago. Kind of amazing...

[18:45] <CEO_CW> OK everyone, the mod gates are now open. Let's talk.
[18:45] <Goober> CEO, can you tell me what's going on with reinstating accounts?
[18:45] *** Goober has been removed from the chat.
[18:46] <CEO_CW> OK, people, let's keep it constructive or I will have to close this down again.
[18:46] <BabyRuth> CEO, I think you and the interns are doing a great job and
[18:46] <WillWorkForFood_CW> Thanks from ALL of us. God thanks you too.
[18:46] <BabyRuth> You're welcome. Anyway, I was just wondering if we could do anything to help.
[18:46] <BabyRuth> I am thinking about sending you more money to help things out.
[18:47] <CheapLabor_CW> Yeah, how about it people? How about some free money.
[18:47] <MrPeanut> I am in. How do I get the money to you?
[18:47] <CEO_CW> PayPal will be fine.
[18:47] <CEO_CW> Any other questions?
[18:48] <NuttyBuddy> I PayPal'd you yesterday to get my account BUZZed and nothing happened until
[18:48] *** NuttyBuddy has been removed from the chat.
[18:49] <CharlestonChew> Do you think if we have accounts with you it will help us get into heaven?
[18:49] <LikinNLovinIt_CW> Oh yeah, there is no QUESTION. All of us here are very big on the lord.
[18:49] <LikinNLovinIt_CW> You did hear about CEO's new MEGALORD upgrade? It is a lifetime account
[18:49] <LikinNLovinIt_CW> that we will honor for transfer to anyone within church's in our denomination.
[18:50] <BigHunk> What churches are those?
[18:50] <CEO_CW> Sorry, that is currently confidential.
[18:51] <FreeLabor_CW> Please people, you are annoying the talent. I mean CEO of course.
[18:52] <MilkyWay> So how come you told us your accounts would be up on
[18:52] *** Milky way has been removed from the chat
[18:52] <MarsBar> CEO, I just wanted to tell you, from the bottom of my heart...
[18:52] <CEO_CW> Yes??
[18:52] Baba boowie Baba Boowie Ba.
[18:52] *** MarsBar has been removed from the chat.
[18:53] <CEO_CW> OK, that is it. I am shutting down this forum. In addition, I am powering down the
[18:53] <CEO_CW> servers for TWO DAYS because you people can't behave. At the end of that time, we
[18:53] <CEO_CW> will see if you can act like adults and we can continue the migration. Goodbye. CEO

Hmmm...DOesn't sound good.

I don't know if this has been mentioned... and I don't want to read 900 posts again to find out... but I think we should all give Kwad the money we were paying to cyberwings. Don't you think he deserves it?
Come on.... he keeps it fun in here, and if he'll keep it fun for $3 for life... heh, that ain't too bad... heck, even $3 per year.

Kwad Guy, since the majority of us are baned from the Customer Support Channel, (and we are true believers, "take my PERSONAL word for it..." ), can you please "UPDATE" us more often on the word of "G0d" please ? Hallelujah, and may the CEO be with you, Amen.

The latest from the Cyberwings chat room.

I log on tonight at 6:50 pm and I see this:
<vmb-ca> This is what is new: Jan and Geek have been working all day on the questionaire and Jan is testing it now

So I decide to join in the discussion:
<mccall> VMB - That's funny 'cause Shawn said on the 18th he was going to work on it all that night and all weekend if necessary
<Jan-CWStaff> mccall...and he has
<mccall> Jan - OK, enlighten me. Why is a form/questionnaire that complicated? Is it automated somehow?
<Jan-CWStaff> mccall....I really don't like to answer rudely phrased questions like that.....but we wanted it to be done right, so we took our time.
<mccall> Jan - I'm not trying to be difficult, or rude, but if Shawn's been working on it since the 18th, and now you're working on it, I just don't understand why it's not done

Jan never answered me and never posted again. So Shawn says on the 15th that the form will be available within 24 - 48 hours and now Jan says 7 days later that they've been taking their time. That's beautiful. Could you possibly be more contemptuous?

Anyway, I don't quit that easy. I tried another staff member:
<mccall> Apacapacas - do you have any info on the questionnaire?
<Apacapacas-Notabot> mccall- only that Jan and Geek are working on it.
<mccall> Apacapacas - Do you have a rough estimate on when they expect to have it available on the web site?
<Apacapacas-Notabot> mccall- no, I sure don't.

Then a few minutes later someone joins and asks:
<letian> any good news today?
<vmb-ca> letian: questionaire is being tested right now
<letian> ok cool
<mccall> VMB - any guess as to how long this testing will last? minutes? hours?
<vmb-ca> mccall: don't quite know
<vmb-ca> depends on how good of a job Jan did

Then they must have gotten nervous because at 7:13 they locked the channel again:
<Apacapacas-Notabot> Folks, I have to go afk for a few minutes. I am instructed to moderate the channel if there are no ops in the room. I'll be back as soon as I can.

Here we are now 2 hours later and the channel is still locked. So much for "a few minutes".


I can't wait to behold the magnificence of this form that's taking a week to prepare and hours to "test". Should be a doosie!

Why stop now when we're sooooo close to 1000? And to seeing CW back in all its glory?

Why give it up? Is it officially a scam? We need to make sure nobody fall for this ever again.

Until refunds are paid and websites are restored this is the only way to make this tolerable.

If you do not like it then stop reading, geez....

News Flash

(in Best Chevy Chase - Saturday Night Live - Weekend Update voice)

The Cyberwings User Questionnaire is still dead!


For all you youngsters who don't get the reference, Chevy Chase used to be a cast member on Saturday Night Live. Back when it was funny. He invented the Weekend Update segment, the one Dennis Miller used to do and Jimmy Fallon does now. They had a recurring bit where they would do a "News Flash" and Chevy Chase would inform everyone that "Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead". And if you don't know who Franco is, I can't help you.


BTW - The Cyberwings channel is still on double-secret lockdown alert.
