56 0 Posted December 18, 2014 As an FYI, the place where the Sanc is/was hosted may be in a money crunch. Things changed shortly after Rodney left their employ a while back. Katchop.com is hosted there, and despite the fact that I don't do much with it and it's pretty dormant, the Duptel folks keep sending me notices about the 'large amount of traffic' the site gets and they're always looking for more money. A lot of hard sell stuff. The site went dark yesterday around the same time the Sanc did, but then came back up a little while later. Conversely, Slantshirts.com doesn't use Duptel, I use the same hosting company that Duptel uses (thanks Rodney!). For 1/2 the price I get a more robust server, more bandwidth and their support dudes are on top of things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that I'm off the Rodney plan, I think I can go to a much more simple to use site for a lot cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TK0001 97 Posted December 18, 2014 Orgazmo doesn't know about Duptel Solopons? Man he really should (have) post(ed) more. Duptel Solopons is focking Sanctuary legend. It saddens me that he doesn't know. What it come from? I know Rodney posted a picture that had a tiny computer monitor on it with his company's logo, but I can't remember why or who initially read it as Duptel Solopons.

56 0 Posted December 18, 2014 First time hearing the name Duptel. Different from Digital Solutions? oh, and what's the hosting company your shirt site is on? Duptel = Digital. In fact, Rodney put Katchop on the very same server as the Sanctuary, so when it got torn down yesterday I went dark too for a little while too. Don't get me wrong, the Digital people are, in fact, really nice. It's just that I noticed a shift in their focus, and now it's all about getting the money. Slantshirts is hosted by http://www.nexcess.net/ and they are really good, especially with support issues. Also half the price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
