@MichaelCee should not regret that. There is no way he could have known what will happen in future. Nobody knows the future. Most likely others would have done exactly the same in his place, concerning how many fans NexusBytes had (and still has). All an owner can do is either manage a business themselves or sell it to someone else hoping they might do better. Unfortunately things don't always turn out the way we want, like in this case where NexusBytes failed expectations.
Can anyone disclose what actually happened to Jay? I'm not asking for details, but is he ill, injured, out partying, got another job or just sick and tired of the hosting business, or did he just disappear and nobody knows where?
I mean, if he is ill or injured I wont hold it against him, but if he is just on vacation partying somewhere it's kind of a dick move.
I think someone in this thread mentioned that he still responds to facebook messages or something like that?

Everything has dedicated machines behind it. It is why datacenters were created in the first place: to hold servers. Usually businesses deadpool not because of physics and mechanics related to dedicated servers, but because of bad decisions and greed (sometimes from owners, sometimes from datacenters, sometimes from politicians with their electricity prices).
Regarding the word "dude", did you just assume and generalise the gender of all owners which have business related to hosting? How dare you?!

Yes.

There are no women on the internet, unless proven otherwise. Women usually have better things to do in life rather than hang around on hosting forums and BBS boards.
It's a state machine driven by entropy.
If it's up, it shall fall down.
If it's running, it shall stop.
If it is working, it shall break.
If it's stong, it shall crack.
If it is draining, it shall clog.
...
Through life, we fight entropy every moment of our existence, just so we prolong it, as much as possible. The universe or as people call it "God" wants to take it's stuff back. But not today.

I'am bafled about how people reacts. Data is going down the drain, money lost and everyone discussing about owners mental health and "I hope he is okey". So exit scamming is tolerated if you are "nice person".

Note to self: start a host, be nice, and no one will be mad when I deadpool, take the money, and run. Seems foolproof to me.

If only it were so straightforward
I suspect that the background story (as far as we can guess, a story involving mental illness) is anything but "take the money and run"
Not to mention that at this point, there's probably very little money left (hence the imminent deadpool)

People don't want to come to the realization (myself included...) that, at the very least, Jay didn't do his due diligence in appointing someone to run the business in his stead. As a business owner it is your responsibility to appoint someone to cover for you if you get hit by a bus and die to continue the business as an obligation to your customers.
Given his track record and behavior from what I know based on his conduct here, this is unusual for him... that is why I and some others feel sympathy. However the bottom line is that we are all still being hung out to dry regardless.
Cheap dedis are my drug, and I'm too far gone to turn back.
