Holy crap, what's with all the AHBL hate? At the very least they have a responsive human and - last time I checked - they don't require an exchange of money to get off the list. I'd hazard a guess that "two weeks" includes the responsiveness of the other party. I unsuspended a domain yesterday because the other party just now got around to the notices I sent 3 months ago on their hacked content manager hosting phishing sites.

Definitely not what the poster was implying (one could argue outright stating).

I've never met anyone who quoted "It takes X long" when X was mostly waiting for you to respond. Why do you assume they would inflate their stats and make themselves look that bad in such a silly way?


People bitch and whine about free services more than when they actually pay for something. Sad.

That is not at all clear from the post above, or anything else in this thread.

Hell, I don't even see hate for AHBL. I just see .. indifference. Just 'cause I and others do not want to use a service doesn't mean we hate it.
