The website seems fine for me? Anyways, with the amount of shit I got when I purchased it a long time ago they deserve it.

Ok, I am go into further detail than most will on this post;

As you know Jay (Grim Hosting Ex owner) sold GrimHosting to Zack (Plox.Host owner), by the end of all the issues occurring throughout the sale Zack had officially taken over full ownership. A few days later Jay decided that he "didn't" like the company and where it was headed even if it was nothing to do with him. He contacted a black hat hacker whom of which I know, and together they were continuously shutting the GrimHosting nodes offline. Zack was getting rather fed up of all the issues that they were causing and was going to switch all servers and everything to Plox.Host, but before they knew it Jay had contacted the hacker yet another time and got Plox.Host defaced and shut down before Zack could even do anything to stop it.

To conclude this, Zack purchased GrimHosting for a large sum of money to get both of his hosts shut down and destroyed. I don't particularly know what Zack plans on doing with the multiple clients he has waiting for their servers (50-60+ clients wanting aound 130gb worth of servers)

I understand that this may result in a lot of hate for either Jay or Zack but personally, I feel the hate would not be necessary for Zack as he did nothing wrong except bring new things to the clients that he had. But unfortunately, he had one issue which was Jay.

Thanks very much for reading this!

The ploxhost.com one was taken, however you can access their real page at plox.host

It's super sad to see people getting "hacked".
Of course, everyone would say "They could have better security" and surely, they could.
However, this has to be quite a bad situtation to be in, both as owner and client.
I would suggest moving your service(s) to somewhere else right now.

Just to be clear, we were not hacked our domain was highjacked, and name cheap has been giving us a hard time getting it back. In the meantime, we have a new domain plox-hosting.com, or you can use plox.host.

As for the old domain, some scammer made a copy of our old site and stated false information as a sick joke

We also have nothing to do with grimhosting what so ever GrimHost even has a separate CEO from PloxHost. We are not related in any way just to clear that up.

We will also be making a post explaining more on what has happened.

Security is our number one priority as well as keeping our clients and our data safe. We have ways of detecting threats and a whole team dedicated to this. We would have never lost our domain name if we had not used NameCheap, they had an issue on their end that enabled our domain to be put up for sale and taken we had no control over it. We had contacted them more then once and there risk management team are the worst in getting back to us. We are currently taking legal action to get the domain back just going to take time.

Our original name plox.host is fine and it's the domain that most people know us by.
