Fatwa Sam
Civilians

 
Default Last Chance To See.......

Just got an email from Redstation, the guys who host the Fatwa Sam website
for me.....

They've told me that the hosting deal should have actually expired quite
some time ago (about a year by my reckoning), but that somehow, it had
fallen through a hole in the system and no-one had realised the site was
still active.....

The upshot is that I've had about a years worth of free hosting from them,
but they've now realised this and are going to take the site down now....

Give them their credit though....They said they'd leave it up for another 48
hours, in case I want to pay to renew the hosting.....I don't, but it's
decent enough of them to offer.....I've dealt with hosts in the past who
would have just deleted it, and then sent me an email when it was too late
to do anything about it......

So this is officially it folks......The last chance ever to see Fatwa Sam's
Online Wife and Slave Emporium.....
As of 5-pm GMT on Wednesday 17th Nov 2004, Fatwa Sam's will be a thing of
the past.....I have to confess to being a little bit emotional about it, as
it's existed in one form or another since mid 1999, and I've had a lot of
fun with it......

you're not the only one <sob/> i'll never find someone to love me now

that makes it of historical significance. get the government to give you
a grant to keep it open.

Why not just move it somewhere else?

1. Haven't got the time on my hands these days
2. I've already milked the Fatwa Sam joke for all it's worth

As much as it pains me, I really feel it's time to put Fatwa Sam to bed....

I'll weep a wee tear on Wednesday at tea time, but all good things must come
to an end eventually....

tina does free hosting with your very own domain name. scripting/db
support may be an issue.
