    GreenValueHost review

    Honestly, I never asked outright about that particular incident, but GVH-Jon did comment on LET and said there was a bunch of instability/downtime issues relating to Serverhub which I guess is the reason for it?

    I'm pretty sure I'm not going to win anything, but here goes!

    GreenValueHost review

    @MannDude said it won't hurt to try my hand in contributing content to the forum, so here is my attempt at writing a review. Don't laugh too hard! :P   I had a VPS with GreenValueHost from late January up until a couple of days ago when I cancelled it, which makes it about a month and a half...

    vpsBoard birthday contest! Enter to win!

    Sounds like I don't have a chance in hell of winning anything even if I tried, but I really appreciate what you're doing for the forum! It's always great to see people contributing new content, especially stuff that may one day be useful to me. ;)

    Recommendations for sticker creation?

    I've only ever used Moo to order stickers and they're fantastic, but I'm not sure if they're the right choice for your needs. They're a little on the pricey side (though they give discounts on a fairly frequent basis) and I'm not sure if they offer the right dimensions you're looking for. They...

    Critical crypto bug leaves Linux, hundreds of apps open to eavesdropping

    I'm no tech expert but this seemed relevant to a lot of the discussions that go on around here. Directly copying and pasting from the article at arstechnica: Hundreds of open source packages, including the Red Hat, Ubuntu, and Debian distributions of Linux, are susceptible to attacks that...

    ColoCrossing, Quick to Get Large IP Blocks Issued and Faster to Soil Them

    I remember seeing your comment on that post, it was the second one or something. I checked offers on another post and when I went back, your comment was already gone. It was definitely posted, though. Speaking of soiled IPs, is the onus on the individual to get their own IP(s) removed from...

    VPSBoard crosses 50k posts

    Honestly, it doesn't matter if six people make up more than 1/5 of those 50k comments. It's a fact that most members of any community tend to be lurkers; then you have those who are active for a while and lose interest, or those who sign up, never comment and then disappear. Sustained activity -...

    New forum idea: Water Cooler / Laundry Room for drama threads.

    Personally speaking, I think a new forum section to contain the more "drama"-ish threads sounds like a good idea, as is making it optional to see those under "view new content". I'm not inclined towards heavy moderation like locking threads the moment a discussion begins devolving and past...

    The pets thread

    @stim Your rabbits were/are adorable. :) And here I was reluctant to post up any pictures of mine because I figured I would be the only one with a pet rabbit! Meet Mocha:

    Where was this letter posted? If it was sent out as an email, I never received it and I'm on the TX3 node. (Yes, I've checked my spam folder as well.)

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

    He also had an "Uh huh" at the end, I would say that's plenty sarcastic in itself... unless he also added that in later? I'm not really sure what you're trying to achieve exactly with this smear campaign but I do have to say, I don't think it's working out as well as you wanted. Will it give...

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

    I'm sorry, but he said that with quotation marks and the entire comment was dripping with sarcasm. If you're going to make an argument at least be straight up about it and stop twisting the words of others to fit your narration. Please.

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

    All those providers coming out of the woodwork to join in just left me shaking my head. They're so intent on their frenzied witchhunt that they don't even care about anything else, like the impression they're leaving on third parties - especially potential or existing clients - any longer. It's...

    Another update, I/O speeds are looking a little better now! dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync 16384+0 records in 16384+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 10.9726 s, 97.9 MB/s CPU model : Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 2.00GHz Number of cores : 4 CPU frequency ...

    Oh good! I hope it's fixed soon, I just checked right now and it's still more or less the same: dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync 16384+0 records in 16384+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 84.3402 s, 12.7 MB/s CPU model : Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 2.00GHz...

    I noticed the vSwap RAM discrepancy too, opened a ticket about it and currently waiting for a response. Doesn't seem like I'm the only one with low I/O either judging from the comments on the LET post. :(
