I am so pissed off... I got a good basis for my site ( http://www.browndotdesign.com/AttackingEcho/V2.html ) And was like ok i'll register me a domain name, and just link it there so i wont have to type all that crap. So I register attackingecho.com for 5 dollars wahoo!.... No

I soon find out that somehow when you link you forward that adress to your site, or whatever. Your somehow using their servers, and since i didnt pay the 60 dollars a year fee for the Nice little super server package, I get an add about as big as the AObanner+Navigation... permentantly at the top of the page

I contact customer service, and after an hour of battling with him, he says "well sorry for ommiting that detail"... What should I do

I don't really see the big deal. You didn't pay for the premium service why should you get the premium service. The banner doesn't interfer with your site. I say if it ain't broke don't fix it

Are you using them for hosting too? A domain just points somewhere. If theres a banner, its most likely a hosting issue, not a URL issue.

Thanks thordic your the only perosn here who isnt eating potato chips laced with pcp. No i am not using there hosting, they are FORCING me to use it, because they left out of the fine print stating that they do not allow ther domains to point anywhere

yea honestly, most domain name registers allow you to just input the address to link to, i think thats what echo means, is that he never wanted to use their ********* server and have a ******* banner on his page
