You're never going to win our hearts or minds here. MT is dead to me now.

There is no one web technology professionals hate more in the world than GoDaddy. I can't think of a vendor I despise more.

Also I'm an MT customer of 8 years and probably referred tens of thousands of business to MT over the last decade. Dead to me. Thats how much I hate GoDaddy.

"There is no one web technology professionals hate more in the world than GoDaddy."

By the way back in the day, before there was a godaddy and during godaddy's rise to "power" that crown (as a despired domain registrar) went to Network Solutions.

I wonder how many HN'ers are aware of that?

What was weird about Network Solutions was that they were much more expensive than their competitors, yet much worse than their competitors. I didn't know anyone who used them, and I'm surprised to learn that they still exist.

Seriously? Network Solutions was the original domain registrar.

I still don't like Network Solutions but it's so rare that I run into anyone using their services it has become a non issue.
