small clarification: nobody is purchasing the company Green Value Hosting Inc.  The company is not being sold.  The company is selling some of its assets to XFuse Solutions (i.e. them pesky ingrate clients). TL;DR Jonny won't have any customers to deal with anymore so he'll be able to...

The CC lowlifes don't deserve any brownie points for good behavior.  Booters are just a small part of the problems coming from their network.  Based on the recent increase in complaints on WHT about brute force attacks, comment spammers, and hack attempts coming from CC's IP ranges they aren't...

Tell them to contact Uniwebhosting if they're in the market for picking up some customers with completely unsustainable plans... :P

WHT is no fun.  The Mouse locked the last GVH thread minutes after I mentioned fracking

From LET, in response to customers with unsustainable plans: That description of unsustainable describes the majority of GVH VPS plans. I don't see much benefit for the majority of customers from the acquisition, but as this LET poster said, the deal does have potentially great benefits for...

Clients only.  GVH doesn't own any hardware.

A change in ownership but no change in data center isn't going to stop the flow of angry customers starting threads on WHT because they were assigned dirty IPs  (like the GVH customer today, who was migrated to Chicago because the IPs he was assigned in Buffalo were dirty...and this wasn't the...

So, three questions: 1. do you  intend to pay PayPal the $3300 you owe them? 2. isn't it a violation of PayPal's rules to open a new account when they close/lock an account and it has a negative balance? 3. if you can't refund Robbie through the closed PayPal account why don't you refund him...

"Right enough" depends on your target customer/market.  The $3.99/1GB you're charging would probably attract low end customers, but the low prices would scare off the type of customers who don't think twice about paying Peer1 $81 for 1GB. "Right enough" also depends on you asking yourself "can...

VPSBoard already sent you as a gift of gratitude for your generosity. :P Hopefully he follows through and takes your advice since the two people in question are also in the UK.

According to a post on LET and an email he sent out advising users to reset their passwords , it has do to him doing the same thing that a majority of low end providers and 1-man shops do: giving a poorly vetted contractor admin access. email: "You need to click forgot my password to login to...

The ridiculously high 2.9% +$0.30 per transaction fees and their inadequate fraud protection systems for starters.

Good example: last year the state of Mississippi sued the largest credit reporting agency Experian over inaccurate consumer data in its database. http://onlineathens.com/jeff-horwitz/2014-06-16/lawsuit-filed-against-credit-reporting-giant-experian If you're maintaining a database of consumer...

Clamhost...this is the company who just in the past 6 months has had "altercations" with its DCs and been asked, or force to move from both Centarra and Psychz? Read this if you haven't already and you won't be surprised by your experience with ClamHost...

If he's worried about privacy then he obviously has something to hide!!!! Suspect reported to the NSA! :P I'd suggest using the LPS Linux distro instead...I'm sure it has no backdoors http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=lps

+1 to that because a sizable number of hosts don't list it in their policies and the ones who don't list it also tend to be the ones who abuse it the most by posting false reports (it's not really that surprising that these hosts don't list it since many of these hosts have amateurish TOS and...

Adding to the list of places to check, you can also check by AS on CleanTalk before signing up with a DC.  If you see a provider who has a high spam rate  (pointing my finger upstate at a DC with an 85.33% spam rate) then you shouldn't be surprised when you get assigned a bunch of dirty IPs...

The UK DDoS seems to have subsided but the LET/B DDoS attacks seem to be ongoing: a provider posts  an offer on LET or posts something someone doesn't like and their sites/control panels (and often IP ranges) immediately get hit with an attack.  A few providers have stopped posting any offers on...

7 times out of 10 the customer is the cause of the DDoS attack BUT there are also plenty of times when an attacker will decide to try to take down a provider or a datacenter and will aim their DDoS attack at any/or all of the provider/DC's IP ranges they can find. Overnight at Leaseweb AMS01...

It's not just OpenVZ.  KVM and Xen guests can also be suspended before a node reboot so they will still show the same uptime after a node has been rebooted.  Here is an example where a KVM guest was suspended prior to the node being rebooted and after the reboot still showed 11 days uptime...
