Paid for a month's stream rental and the owner took my money and closed up shop.

I paid fora stream rentalwith aplace Ihave used formonths and the owner without notice abandoned his land and left.  You can't even find his stream rental place in sl searches anymore.  I filed a fraud complaint but it hasn't gotten any notice... any ideas?

Hello again, Dakota.

Ouch!

This sounds like an unfortunate case of 'one of those things' and you have done all you can I feel.

Unfortunately, sometimes people have very little notice when a company (and this happens in real life too) or organisation goes belly-up, and there are often casualties along the way.

As you have already filed a fraud complaint and nothing has come of this, I do feel you must write off this bad experience and try to find a new rental company, or purchase some land of your own.

You will see here on the forums some regular advertisements for long-standing rental companies. Maybe you could take a look.

Pssst. Dakota is talking about a stream rental company (as in SHOUTcast). Other than that... I agree.
