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.
I definitely agree with what you say
I merely meant that it's not a classic "take the money and run" scam

I agree with this, but at the moment it would make me a hypocrite to call him out in that as I myself don’t have an emergency plan set up yet.
So at the moment my concerns are Jay’s health and safety, and the customers involved right now, not in any particular order.

Bumping this thread to say that the NB deadpool appears to be more imminent than ever, so you should get off the ship while you still can ...
The generalization seems to be that if a location is still paid for, then it's still up, but the clock is ticking ...
Anybody know till when amsterdam is paid by chance?
No, but the end user panel doesn't seem to be working (no VNC etc.) now.

Perhaps this is a good opportunity to make a business continuity plan then
Cheap dedis are my drug, and I'm too far gone to turn back.
Going to say something unpopular here. What gets me is every one is now concered as to why there was no one in place to run it if something happened like it is a fortune 500 company.
News for you all that little store you visit daily that is run by the old couple bet when they pass it goes away. This is no different really even if you pass it on it is up to the next people of it endures.
People would have been pissed probably if he did pass it on because it is not the same when seriesn ran it.
Face it full in people shit happens in this industry and there is not a thing that can be done about it. Just protect yourself for the worse so when it happens, and it will again, you minimize the damage it does to you. That is all you can do.
Now as @Flying_Chinaman told me earlier I shall go back to my cave.

We're offering refugee plans for anyone interested, it comes with the first remaining term free, so in your case basically a year and renews at same price, same specs. I'm trying to set up a form, not just for NB but in general as something we offer moving forward.

Would anyone actually want to purchase NB? It's been thinned out dramatically and likely running older hw (if they owned) realistically it'd be easier to buy hw and throw some deals around to acquire the NB clients without a tainted brand at this point imo

Want to snag that VirMach hosting offer really badly but you paid annually for a hosting plan half a year ago and now you can only drool at our offer?
With our contract buyout special, you can now wipe that drool off your face.
Here’s the deal:
Purchase a VirMach Premium VPS plan on annual payment terms and we will provide service credits for the full amount for the remaining term of your current hosting plan or up to 4 months worth of service, whichever is the lowest.
Must be active with the current provider for at least 2 months.
We accept Karma donations for the last flan. 🍮 affbrr

It'll be aimed at refugee only for that, but technically it's up to us what companies we consider as qualifying. For example NB isn't technically dead right now but we'd offer it and let's say your service with them still goes on for a while, that doesn't matter (we won't ask for proof of the service getting terminated or anything like that.)
I'd consider any company lightly associated with JB as qualifying for potential deadpool based on our experience.
No purchase/credits, it's not a marketing tactic. You get what you were owed by other company then you can decide to renew or cancel, no money upfront. That'd kind of defeat the whole purpose of a refugee offer.
All services are moved to Texas.
Prices are increased 2x.
I wouldn't say all prices would change. Some things might stay the same. Who knows what the future holds.
But we wouldn't move everything to here in Texas.

NexusBytes for sure didn't receive anything, their email addresses are automatically set to respond with "we don't read this, open a ticket". I forwarded that to namesilo and have not received a response, the domain has been in the account since September is when I requested a push
