    Robert Clarke DDoS'd Brings the Internet Down...

    RobertClarke spreading factually untrue BS about other providers earlier... Screenshots of another hosts ahhh revenue.... weird stuff.  Trying to pass them off as another host's info... Question is, why did Clarke post the screencaps of the provider he did  [claimed to be GVH] since such...

    How can we make the Daily Server Deals website a better experience for you?

    Once upon a time, long before LEB was stolen by some a$$hole$ from Buffalo, the originator of the site had similar disinterest / lack of momentum.  To get LEB moving they ahh, manually injected offers that caught their eyes for a long while.   It's a very typical approach, necessary. Frankly, I...

    What do you consider valid justification for IP space?

    But I need IPs for my front ends for every e-device... and I want them on different subnets....  Privacy.. Oh wait proper SWIP should include personal end information.  Shh...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    Well let's think about this rationally. Say I order a VOIP line and pay for a year.  Then 3 months in I decide to make a call.  No dialtone, call won't go through, etc.  I then have to go to support and determine this inactivity thing booted me.  Did they render the services under the agreement...

    (Newb question!) How to divide a dedicated server into VPSes?

    Well I'd be a bigger fan of Digital Ocean if it didn't have Marc "Conehead" Andreessen's entitlement money behind.  Same fellow who sh!t talked Edward Snowden as a traitor (while blathering on about what revelations will have on sales at US companeis from foreigners - i.e. I WANT MORE MONEY F'...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    They've done a few models as far as I know. First was like $1 per month on the smallest plan. Then they offered it at annual reduced cost pre paid. Then they rolled out $35 lifetime. I never saw a free offer.  Unsure if they did such.

    (Newb question!) How to divide a dedicated server into VPSes?

    It gets no easier than Proxmox.  Order server, install Proxmox, use the web interface to allocate VMs as needed and adjust resources. Other approaches are provider-centric, more cumbersome, more technical BS to deal with. Just order enough IPs with your server for your containers otherwise...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    Well if my VPS is running and shutdown and doesn't come back to life, that's a terminate.  I mean container still there and all, but effectively offlined until I go hoop jump. This is different than a perma terminate where they crumple the container.  Symantics I realize :) Very strange...

    Passwords and Storage!

    Well why disclose the password ever again?  If they forget such, then time to generate a new password.  I've never understood the show me the password... I should know the password and in case I got sloppy or misplaced it, getting or setting it fresh is fine. I guess I'm paranoid like that. ...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    AS stated, they are setting all VPS instances to terminate / shut down the VPS after 7 days of not logging in. You can override this by going in there and flipping the setting supposedly.... But for those that have instance running on autopilot, here comes inevitable outage. I guess they are...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    This is legendary.   CloudAtCost who sold a bunch of of low priced and often lousy performing VPS instances now has come up with a solution to their mass oversell hell.  (yeah I believe they sold flat cost LIFETIME VPS services too) The feature is to shut down your VPS for inactivity - lack of...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    I appear to have missed where the nature of the ban, being a perma ban was said clearly - until now. As for complaints about other users that have been banned,  unsure outside of spammers who has been banned and where their behavior was exhibited and such response was said to be a perma ban. ...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    That paintjob looks nice... If they limited it to the glass you should be able to self clean up their mess with ideally no damage. Sucks.... Time to move away from population center living and the idiots that breed there.  Out in the country you park way back behind your property line...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    It hasn't been addressed, so I'll bring it back up.... With these bans, how long are the folks banned to be banned? Is this a one time and entirely gone routine?   Or are they on some X day ban?

    VirtNetwork - Awesome KVM Plans!

    I'm like huh? Who is selling KVM plans at said prices... I get that one could take 96GB of RAM and dice it up into 46 2GB plans @ $7 and pull in $336 a month...  Such doesn't add up though.  Unless the server is free and no support.  Can't even pay the server rental and live on ramen at such...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    In Re Fran's comments: I'll let this thread continue and continue with my work day.   But, I wanted to note that we should and must do better than those other sites.   Just because someone is ban prone elsewhere shouldn't mean their path here is more of that. Other sites as we know are rather...

    You know I gave you and the moderators hell on this because of the LE* history mainly and the games that continue to get played over there.  Little things like this are babysteps towards more swift and ugly actions. A number of us have found ourself on the wrong side of the ban hammer for being...
