    vpsBoard Random Downtime

    Backups run every two hours so, at even number hours (EST) it lags for about 30 seconds. So at 00:00, 02:00. 04:00, etc this happens. Otherwise I've not really noticed any performance issues. Last week there was a day where I had to restart nginx/php a few times, but that (for me) is semi-rare...

    Child labor in the low end segment

    It wasn't aimed directly at you, it applies to many. Step 1: Buy a domain name. Step 2: Buy a cheap oversold VPS or reseller account. Step 3: Install WHMCS Step 4: Tell friends at school you started your own company and are a CEO. Step 5: How do I work this thing? That's the process for...

    Contract Workers (1099 Status) vs. Real Employees

    This is a good thread, and something most are not a 100% clear on. (Myself included) I was under the impression that to be a contract worker, it meant that you could only work for a limited amount of time as such and without a set schedule. Is this true? Last Fall I did some temporary work for...

    Child labor in the low end segment

    The major issue with this, is that child-labor laws were originally put in place because as America became industrialized you had lots of children working in factories, mills, and mines with their families to get by. It was hard, grueling work that posed risks to a developing child and prevented...

    Adam "ET" Ng Attends the High School Prom

    Hmm... I think child labor laws in the industry is worthy of it's own thread, if this is what this thread was supposed to be about then it started off poorly. The web hosting industry is huge, I'd say the vast majority of providers are staffed by people who are old enough to drive, buy...

    Ideas and suggestions for vpsBoard

    That's already a feature. Go to the offer section, click, "Create thread" or "New Post" (or whatever it says). There is a post template, because people were unable to read the old sticky thread that was clearly labeled, "Rules". Some people still ignore the post template and just remove it...

    PayPal Business US Verified Requirements

    IDK, to be honest. I'd imagine you'd have to actually be 18 and have verified your identity.

    Requesting photo ID via email OK?

    I'm a paranoid one as well, though my main concern is how the data is stored after I submit it. Do they keep it on file indefinitely? Do they remove it after verification? Is some random employee who works remotely storing it on his laptop that later got stolen from a Starbucks? I don't mind...

    PayPal Business US Verified Requirements

    I've been business verified for years, and have actually applied for the PayPal business debit at least 3 times in the past 3 or 4 years, or however long it's been an option. In the past they'd deny it immediately. However a couple months ago they wanted me to update my information, and when I...

    YouTube radio or streaming playlist script?

    YouTube radio or streaming playlist script?

    I'm looking for a script that will allow me to sort of start a internet radio station of sorts, based on YouTube sources. Additional sources of media support such as SoundCloud would also be ideal, but not needed. In short, just looking for something that will allow me to make playlists or a...

    [Newbie] What are the vital things after setting up VPS?

    Hey there, welcome to vpsBoard. Luckily for you, cPanel makes managing a server quite easy. Even when you encounter issues or have a question, the software is in use by so many that if the official cPanel documentation fails to cover it, then you can rest assured that the question has been...

    GreenValueHost forced password reset - Security breach?

    Were they using free or paid CloudFlare? Free or the $25/mo plan is useless against attacks. And if they didn't change their IPs then CF won't be of any use anyhow.
