i dont particularly like the site. i definitely dont see eye-to-eye with its users, kind of like kiwifarms but this guy is getting the same treatment for his drama instance on here from ramnode so i think it might be wise to avoid them, as with most (dont use DO, Linode etc)

someone should make a list of what to avoid for people in the future, i would but there's a lot going on here right now. if you make one let me know and boost this guys poast so people know these guys are not tolerant

@graf Thank you very much, regardless of our relationship, I don't know of many RamNode users besides FrailLeaf... everyone else seems to use buyVM or some other service.

The fact that a single falseflag cucked me out of my server does piss me off, still no email yet or response to my ticket

@neko @graf Know who did it and who reported it?

@p @graf I do not. Zero emails, my dashboard looks normal. My account still exists, but I currently cannot see modify this server.

I'm able to still use my Minetest server though, so I went ahead and backed it up, as they're probably going to suspend my entire account.

I have backups starting at the beginning of this month only.

@neko @graf That is fucked up, man. Not even an email?

When you contact them, stress that whatever was on there was UGC.

@p @graf I'm probably just going to send a cancellation request and move VPS's. I would love if you could give an affordable suggestion that isn't high price. I was paying $15 but they upped their prices this month i think it went up to $20 or $22

@neko @graf FranTech and Joes Datacenter are the only two I'd roll with.

@p @graf I'll give them a look

@neko @graf Hit up @sjw for his shilling link if you go with FranTech.

Their stuff looks underpowered, but that is because they don't over-sell: you pay for a core, you get a core, instead of a VPS that will sell you a 12-core machine but you're getting maybe a 20% slice of those CPUs.

@p @neko @sjw @graf buyvm is nice but please be aware that they’re in a bandwidth crunch at the moment due to people hosting so many tor nodes lmao

go to plus.st and browse some stuff compared to other services, a tad bit slower in comparison (got better tho)

Everything else though it’s great, and they plan on upgrading bandwidth at the beginning of 2023

@sjw @itzzenxx @graf @p I ordered a server already but they dont have any block storage slabs available

should I just cancel my NY server and use LA instead? I cant use 80gb SSD

@neko @graf @itzzenxx @p
Did you use my referral link?

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @p no i didnt, what does it offer? i can cancel what i hosted if u want

@neko @graf @itzzenxx @p nah don't worry about it
Just use the link when you purchase from LV
LV almost always has slabs because that's where Fran lives now.

@sjw @neko @graf @itzzenxx GOTTA

PARTY

@p @sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko Sometimes it takes a minute for them to spin up your machine tho.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf Not anymore. They don't have to manually provision VMs anymore.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Idk, it took a good 12 hours for mine to go online.

No big deal. Of course I did buy it on the weekend.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf I think new customers have to go through fraud checks.
I'm primere tho.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Word. I'm not new, but it's been a sec since I needed to buy a new machine.

Not complaining I've always been happy with service

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf I apparently signed up for Fran on 2017-07-16.
They still had storage servers back then!

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Huh, more power to ya friendo.

You've been a user way longer than I have. Makes sense you got the preem status.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf only reason I have it is because I asked Fran for it in IRC

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p That would prob do it.

Ive talked to him a few times on Discord. The dude is amazingly responsive for sure.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf Mother fucker sshed into my server and applied a hotfox to his VM management software at 03:00 on Christmas Eve all because I opened a low priority support ticket.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Wait what? For real?

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf yee

@ins0mniak @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p that was back in the feminism.lgbt days

@sjw @graf @ins0mniak @itzzenxx @p I was considering purchasing marsey.lgbt

I decided against it due to cuck ToS, but... you think i may have a chance or not worth it?
