I really think x10 could be a little bit better about how they treat their users. I am grateful for them offering free hosting, and the uptime is pretty good. I think the service here in general is good-great on a scale from crap to excellent, being free a solid "great"! The only complaint I have is that they are quick to jump the gun when it comes to canceling accounts for minor infractions.
I can sorta understand if they find porn or stuff like that on your site, since they are hosting it for free- but to cancel someone without any warning because of a missing ad is a bit harsh. It isnt hard to accidentally delete some code when fiddling with the html on your site, or making other changes - and it isnt hard to not notice it yourself afterwards, so a little heads up in your email would be nice before they suspend you. The reason I am upset about it is because, not only is it a bit over-authoritative, but when they unsuspended my account I started getting all kinds of errors in my PHP forum. I cant even post anything in it now and I have to pretty much go through it and save everything and redo the whole damn thing from scratch again. I find the phpbb3 a lot more complicated, even though they say it is supposed to be more admin friendly- the older versions were so much easier.
