They (which consists of the other admin thanking his posts) are wasting their time backing him.  DB made the decision to go into exile before Spirit posted.  If the words honesty or integrity ever enter the vocabularies of the owners or administrators there DB might reconsider that decision. :)...

I'm another happy VPS.co.za customer (384MB Xen plan). "I don't think I have ever seen a network outage on the server yet." There haven't been any total network outages but for about 5 days after Nelson Mandela died the infrastructure in South Africa was completely overloaded with the huge...

What's up with the additional info message the BBB has on 123systems report? http://www.bbb.org/north-east-florida/business-reviews/internet-web-hosting/123systems-solutions-in-douglas-ga-235960749

Guilty as charged.  I put him up to it. I'm the chairman of ATDC* and our organization's aim is to keep the children safe from being exposed to towel dancing pr0n on the Interwebs.  BuyVM has been in our sights as a purveyor of towel dance pr0n since those vacation pictures of your towel dancing...

There's a big difference between the two.  Your John Deer ID is basically a pen name you use when answering tickets (and you don't try to cover up the fact that J.D.=Mao), while Adam's "Kevin" was a 24/7 fabricated person complete with fake Facebook and LinkedIn profiles (and a fake family in...

The oldest VPS provider on the planet. They were the first provider to offer virtual servers in 2001.  I used them for awhile in 2002.  The "nodes" they were using then were Pentium 111 933 Mhz/1GHz with 1.5GB RAM.   The RAM was shared between all the virtual servers on the node.  Virtualization...

THAT IS A HORRIBLE THING TO SAY TO SOMEONE! OUTDOOR AIR POLLUTION CAUSES CANCER! :P

What is it with CC related companies and leaking customers personal info all over the Internet?  From the Reddit HostLegend thread:

The majority of hosts who use CC are also hardworking good honest people who shouldn't be singled out and put on a list just because they chose a cheap datacenter which happened to be CC.. On the other hand, there are some CC hosts with special ties to CC who don't give a crap about customers...

They (123systems) have been selected for what I call the 'SlickDeals" club: a small handful of CC providers who get shilled on SlickDeals.  Others in the club include ChicagoVPS (and BuffaloVPS when they were around), UGVPS, DigTheMine, Hudson Valley Host, VPS Ace, ServerMania, and this one who...

Nothing announced yet but here's the AS for Singapore http://bgp.he.net/AS133165 I posted this link on LET to a VentureBeat interview with DO.  They're up to 6,350 physical servers. http://venturebeat.com/2013/12/24/digitaloceans-cloud-surpasses-amazon-web-services-in-one-category/

No SSL on the billing area, shortest combined TOS/AUP/Privacy Policy in the world,  and when he posted an offer on LET the other day he got pissed off and refused to answer any questions when people asked for info on the company.  He posted an offer for a Windows VPS but the Windows license that...

I don't know if it's actually advertised but most offers out of CC data centers seem to follow the same formula and use the same marketing points even when it's a provider that CC doesn't have a "financial relationship" with or share an office with.

The customers who are victims include both VPS end users who wind up paying for crappy service (or pay annually only to see their provider deadpool), and some gullible inexperienced providers who fall for the "leave your day job behind and get rich quick by renting our servers and following our...
