This is not a plug for P$ so don't move it and don't ban it from this spot. It's a question of why couldn't LSjapan stick around when others just like them are doing well. Theirs was just called a warranty, it was actually a P$
In all the years of testing I've never accused anyone of 'taking the money and running' , until now.
Like many others I just went ahead with the P$ route. Really doesn't matter who with, just that it's been freeze free, has alll the DN channels, signing up was less than 8 hours......and it just plain works great.

Now the point here is that there are several good P$ spots, so why couldn't LSJapan do the same? We paid for it with the 'warranty' (which was really a P$) in fact more than I just paid for my current P$ provider.
Were they simply underfunded, did they get scared, or was it truly a scam? It would be interesting to find someone in the know who could track them down and pay them a friendly midnight visit. You know, they just may be in a country that wouldn't miss them anyway.
Just some late night thoughts. And did I mention, CHARLIE, IKS is alive and well..........

I guess you could have joined the other 500 threads talking about the same thing.... :innocent:

but i'll be brief and say ... this is the not the first time this happens...

many other similar services just dropped off the face of the FTA earth...

TWO clues to watch for always ...

one is the legal documents about DN and their prosecuting the service in question.

two... the take over of domains by DN...

if both happen at roughly the same time... you can assume that the service is done...

if u been in the FTA game long enough ...u'll remember similar cases... and i won't list them coz its a lengthy list:D

Interesting, posted a speculation on LSjapan running with the money last night and the thread has been removed. So who works for who on here?????????????

Couldn't be due to my mention of having gone the pay route, as others are openly discussing setting up P$ in numerous threads here instead of the P$ forum. So why.....makes you wonder don't it.

If it had been posted two months ago or better, it might have been a new observation or viewpoint. Timing is everything. :)

While you are at it, take a look at rule #8. The third sentence is what applies here. :)

Not removed ... just moved as stated above...
When/IF u get to be staff here ..U can decide where a thread belongs..
Until then.. Best not tell staff here what to do or your threads/posts WILL possible disappear...
Review the site rules before typing would be my suggestion .. Thanks

This is your second thread on the same subject and it is moved here,,, Stay with your original or the next one will be eliminated and you will be carded.
