Two Tragic Days

These past two days have been a real tragedy. I’ve typed this post twice already, because I accidentally closed it before saving. Two days ago, I woke up one morning, opened my site, and it had turned orange, with just one line of English saying: Your account has been suspended. Instantly I was in floods of tears. Why? So I messaged Chenye (a reseller for Qingyun Hosting), only to find he’d gone off on vacation, which made it even more tragic. He said he’d be back on the afternoon of the 16th, and that maybe my site had infringed copyright or used up a lot of the server’s resources. I said there was no way, and so I waited. In the meantime I wanted to buy another host, so I searched on Tencent Weibo and found someone. I told him my host had been suspended over a copyright problem (at the time I didn’t know the reason, I just thought copyright was most likely, so that’s what I told him). Then, right after I said that, he said, we’ve already bought it, we don’t want to add anyone else. I could tell right away, so what more was there to say? The guy just didn’t want the hassle. I told him I’d fix up my blog as required, but he was just one of those people who don’t want any trouble. Fine, no shared hosting then. People these days just don’t want extra hassle. Of course, everyone hates extra hassle…… Speaking of which, my domain is being transferred abroad, to godaddy. 49 yuan to transfer it out, not bad~ I’ve already mailed the paperwork and such to Xinnet’s headquarters in Beijing, but because of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday nobody’s processing it, so I’ll have to wait until tomorrow! Right now I really, really want to buy a host. I think bluehost is the best choice. Going in on a group purchase means sharing one account since you can’t create separate ones, which is bound to cause problems later. Buying it myself costs 330 RMB on Taobao, which scares me off. Now I’m really torn…… If I buy it myself I’ll probably have to wait until September, when I might have some money. The most tragic part is that after my account got suspended I moved to a host in China. I was going to move to Xirang, but Xirang’s bandwidth for the month had run out and the site wouldn’t open, so I moved to Zhujiwu instead. And the very afternoon I finished moving, Zhujiwu went down. Tragic. Zhujiwu still hasn’t recovered………… This afternoon it finally came back. Chenye told me my account had been suspended for using too many server resources, so I checked everything and concluded it was probably the plugins. I’ve now disabled some of them, and I hope there won’t be any more tragedies. Speaking of which, next Tuesday is my academic proficiency test, which is really important for me. Heaven bless me, I studied hard~ Let me get top marks on all of them!!
