I signed up with my reseller package without any problems.
I followed everything that I was supposed to do and everything worked fine.
My site(s) are available and the main pages pull up fast, that’s important!
Resale Account creation is instant, management is a snap, etc.!
So far everyting is going along to my satisfaction.

Issues:
I did not receive my forum activation for 5 days, even after contacting support and emailing Justin directly. It isnt a HUGE deal, but I was unable to view the reseller forums, etc, while trying to setup my sites, oh well not that big a deal but worth mentioning since everything else was automated except the forums.

SPAM>>> My account has received a half-dozen spam emails already. I do not know if this is an issue related to the host or if people are targeting the IP’s associated with HostGator. This is not a good thing and I hope HostGator finds a way to keep spam to a minimum and shut down the people that are doing it. I am curious as to why I have received spam so quickly on a new account… maybe HostGator support can find a way to stop it.

So anyway… the only negative things are what I have listed so far. People like to look for the negative, so there it is from my point of view.

However, everything else “did what it was supposed to do” and I cannot complain. If you are new to DNS and hosting then it may be different for you, but for me this was a piece of cake. I have the WHM & Autopilot working and I am impressed with the abilities of the software… I know its not related to HostGator, but HostGator provides the software tools as part of my account. My sites pull up fast, everything is good to go… I hope it stays this way too!!!
