staff, We still have no stats for december
| This site has not had any stats since the
middle of December. During the week of Christmas, nothing was
pressing so I let it slide. However I began requesting a
resolution for this at 8:44 AM 12/31/1999. Again on 1/3/2000
at 11:46 AM, I requested that someone find the problem with my
stats. Finally on the 10th of January, 2000 I was able to get
stats for this site from 2/4/1999 through 1/7/2000, with the
exception of December 1999. Today is the 14th of January,
2000, and I still don't have any stats for December. If
someone would like to speak to me about this and the other
problems this site has been encountering during the preceding
60 days, I can be reached Mon through Sat from 8 am to 6 pm at
910-327-3036. I would be more than happy to discuss my rapidly
growing dis-satisfaction with the service, or lack thereof, as
the case may be. |

- 12:43 PM 1/14/2000 Think they have it resolved. Unknown problem. Edward
quoted "Personally that answer is unacceptable, however, I can not
personally do anything about it it is the administrators of the
server."
Check back again tomorrow. Should have been resolved within 24 hours, we
are currently going into 72 hours since the current report was initiated.

- 11:02 AM 4/07/2000 SFC Offline at least five minutes, (I was trying to

Give Up on ValueWeb ever correcting any of the problems.
They are the root of the vast majority of the errors to begin with. Locate New
Server Farm, begin process of transferring sites. We never did get any of the
problems resolved, stats were bogus, I have printed & saved copies of the
stats page for sneadsferry.com for the month of March, one for the accumulated
totals through March 20th and another one for the final for March 30th. On the
3/20 report is a specific page that had accumulated 100 views through the 20th,
by the 30th after 10 more days of being viewed an average of 5 times per day,
this same page had a grand total of 78 views for the month of March. There is No
Possible way for a page to accumulate page views in reverse, if the totals are
going backwards, someone is screwing with the stats, period.
