    PHP itself is one giant bad language decision.

    "Threatening" them with PHP4 server shutdowns only makes them go away to other hosting providers that will over PHP4 to them.

    That's hard to believe, both that there are any hosts still tunning PHP4, and that there are significant rumblings over upgrading to current technology.

    In a day and age where staying on top of the latest software upgrades to prevent hacking and such things is simply expected, who the hell are these people that can't live without php4?

    I trying to figure out what kind of troll the parent is.

    It has everything to do with you being unprofessional for using PHP in the first place. You SHOULD have known PHP sucks, and you WOULD have known PHP sucks and there are much better alternatives, if you had done you research. -Don
