It's actually very hard to find new and adequate swearwords to express my hatred for bArt.nl. This may in fact be one of the reasons that I'm inventing so many swearwords for the Gnomian language. I hope to come up with some that accurately describe the awfulness that is bArt's ISP disservice.------------------

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Ah, so maybe we should all send letters to bArt that they're doing great and stuff like that <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">Seriously though, we (yeah, I know) had one of our servers at the old bArt headquarters here in town - thank god it's offline now, 'cause for the last few months the only way to get in was to phone someone in Rotterdam & have him open the door. [For the geographically challenged, that's a two hour drive to open a door - bit silly really]Don't let bArt get you down though - if they're that bad, they'll go bust soon enough <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">d

Discuss: can you get any worse than an ISP that is incapable of keeping its phone lines open?Seriously, I want to switch, but my problem is that my email address appears in print in many places. I would have to keep my bArt subscription for at least a year, in other words I'd have to pay them for a service I don't use. I'd effectively reward them for their outrageous suckiness.And I can't afford the up-front investment involved in getting DSL... although that would save me money in the long run.------------------
