    I smell a ban coming.

    WHMCS - Custom 'fraud' blocks module

    Yeah, that's pretty much what I figured.

    WHMCS - Custom 'fraud' blocks module

    You necro'd a pretty old thread there, Corey.  Pretty much resolved anyways, I ended up writing a custom script for Martin to handle this.

    Getting spammed LSN adverts by FraudRecord?

    Heh...yeah, this is why I never jumped on the FR bandwagon, and just kept all of our anti-fraud in house.  My inbox gets enough BS from "Let me cut you a great deal" upstreams as it is.

    List of providers who offer DDoS protection.

    It also depends on what you're running - certain types of attacks (L7, etc) can really wreck your day regardless of your filtering if you don't have competent techs ready to analyse and adjust to the attack.

    Seeking servers sponsorship for project

    You've been lucky.  We've seen neighbouring racks at old DCs have gear pulled without the owner even being informed simply because the Feds walked in and the DC was too scared to tell them 'no'.  We almost had the same happen to us, but Rob doesn't tolerate that kind of power abuse, and bought...

    Hostages Taken in Sydney

    You only think ending a life is 'the easy way out' because you've never had to do it yourself.  Once you've looked into someone's eye and ended everything they are by your own hands, regardless of how justified you think it may be, THEN come tell me just how easy it is.

    Seeking servers sponsorship for project

    You've never actually be in a position to experience what happens when the Feds come knocking, have you?  You sound far too optimistic and "of course they'll follow their own laws".

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    So, if you weren't going to pinpoit the grammatical mistake (you are just too young to get the reference).. why call it out by bolding the 'correction'?

    What the heck will I do with this beast...

    Donate it to the "million dollar network" chumps, as it's clearly a step up from their current spaghetti mess.

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    Worked great for me - saved desk space as well.  Only reason I stopped using that setup is when I went to my 3-monitor rig and reorganized my workflow, but it was great for horizontally-thin uses such as IRC, xmpp, most web pages, etc.

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    I've run that exact setup before - a 22" turned sideways.  Unless you're running an absolutely barebones setup (fluxbox, etc), you don't even need to configure it by hand.  KDE, Gnome, Windows, etc. all support monitor rotation from whatever they call the 'Display Settings' menu.

    Managed cPanel VPS

    Hmm, true enough.  But, on the upside, the only thing you have to know about CentOS is how to `yum update; yum install screen perl wget`.  Other than that, it's literally a single command to install cPanel (wget | sh a file), and it handles the rest.  Answer a few questions when it prompts you...

    Managed cPanel VPS

    Honestly, just go with a provider you already trust and know would lend you a hand if you needed it.  The actual cPanel install is piss-easy, and requires next-to-no configuration on the VM itself.  And once it's installed, you're right back to managing a cPanel interface, which you're already...

    Stallion 2 - pictures and daily updates :)

    2F Auth is already available for our billing panel - just need to throw me a ticket and I'll enable it on your account.  It is on the 'to-do' feature list for Stallion, we're just taking care of priority items first.

    What is anycast?

    tl;dr - three (or more) servers, one IP.  You take steps to have these servers mirror each other, then if one goes down the Anycast (which is already pushing visitors to the most desirable based on their location) will just fall back to one of the others. There's more involved, but that's just...

    HudsonValleyHost officially owned by ColoCrossing

    Couldn't do an agreement on paper because little Johnny Wonder was a minor.  In fact, if GVH is legitimately registered and paying its taxes, they could get slammed brutally on labor laws regarding employing children (limited number of hours, etc). If they're not paying taxes, then they can get...
