Hey guys,
I made a big mistake. I spammed my fellow domainers from my dreamhost account. It was a genuine mistake, but I appreciate that is not an excuse.
I have learned from my mistake, and I wont do it again. I have also been punished in that my dreamhost account has been closed. All fair and square, and just a bit of background for what follows.
My account has been closed, and they are refusing to provide me with a backup of my files. They are now not even replying to my emails.
I feel I have been punished for my mistake in losing my account, but this is now preventing me from continuing development of my various websites such as domaindairy.com which are used daily by domainers.
I have essentially lost access to hundreds of hours of coding, and that is really painful.
My position now is I need those scripts, so I am not going to let it drop. I am/have been trying to settle this amicably with dreamhost. It really isnt that much effort to zip up my files and allow me to download them. Then I'd be out of their faces. I know this is possible because someone in a similar position recieved this treatment (thanks google).
Based on my current situation of not recieiving replies to my emails, I was curious if anyone knew anyone at dreamhost, that could help me get this sorted, or anyone who had any better suggestions as to how to sort this.
Any help which leads to a resolution will get a significant reward. I want my scripts !
Thanks
Tom
