Well if i died today or tomorrow and on the off chance there is life after death i would commit suicide again over and over until there was no more 2nd / 3rd / 4th lives... lol i would be screwed in terms of my sites, i guess after my banks canceled my accounts / froze / blocked my funds i guess everything would eventually just die off... and then some smarty with back-orders on my domains (sure i do have a few back-orders on a few of my domains) or i guess the domains would get dropped and some lucky person could potentially pick them up and almost start of where i left off (if they were smart enough).
No really you have an excellent point, after a bad run with amateur moderators / appointing admins who i hadn't sussed out properly.. You do live and learn (usually in that order lol) I actually appointed a admin from a competition site (without knowing he was the owner of my main competition site) he made out he was just a good guy with an interest in my niche, long story short he stole my mailing list, sent an email to all my members saying my site was closing down because i no longer care for the site, then hacked my site good and hard).. and within just a few weeks his site had 200+ of my members all signed up on his site.
long story short... there is one other person in this world i would trust with al my sites / hosting / license details etc and yet ive still not provided these details to him.. after seeing this thread i will get onto that now, because your thread is very very valid.. usually most off-topic forums are not worth reading...but this is a wake up call.
To be honest just over 5 weeks ago, i was very close to my death due to a perforated stomach ulcer (was a lot worse than it sounds) was away from the pc for about 2 weeks without having any online access while in hospital i got into a lot of strife / lost a lot of paid work / had a lot of online contacts worried about me / dumped a heavy load of work onto a friend who we have a 50/50 partnership in a website he had to take care of everything and i couldn't even get online to let him know what was going on... and i mean that was only 2 weeks, a death would cause unthinkable damage.
Wow Thanks for this thread, i needed that you know, not kidding either thank you this has helped me (provided i don't have a stroke in the next few hours) and i am sure this will help a lot of others also provided they act on it and not say "ahhh yeah i must think about that later" and never get around to it.
Haven't done this before (always thought this was quite / very GAY or at least very NERDY every time i saw someone doing it) but here goes:
