Fanfusion is naughty
This is more of a signal boost than anything.
Never ever host fansites on Fanfusion

A tawdry tale of socks and harassment and spam and Domain names held hostage.

ETA: This isn't the first time, and Toya herself speaks up
Thanks to an anon on Wank Report, [info]pfeffermuse and [info]octavia for the tip.

"Nothing has changed, it just means that the site would be hosted here forever"
Right, nothing's changed, it just means they want to grab your domain and hold it hostage if you ever want to change web-hosts. Parking a site in their domain with identifying information and the following campaign is horrifying. Legitimate webhosts a) would not do that and b) would not have the time to do that because they're to busy actually doing serious business.


I recommend buying a domain from Namecheap (their CEO doesn't hunt elephants and they don't create any other drama I know of), and then getting some free hosting from www.000webhost.com/ Their free service is pretty good, so they're worth looking into also for paid hosting.
