    Work at it boss :)

    If you have access to your paypal/business CC, confirm a payment was sent. If you don't, I guess you have to take his word for it.

    I'm pretty confident he actually paid it. When we started this venture, I told him that if he lies about anything, it's pretty much instant game over.

    Sometimes I get the feeling he doesn't have his heart and soul in this as much as I do. But there's not much I can do about that.

    Yeah, but still, not a good first impression for you, since you signed up like 3 days ago :P

    Folding wouldn't take down everything :)

    Update: Adam is at DC, we'll have this issue resolved very soon.

  • DamianDamian Member

    Update: We're back.

  • LAKidLAKid Member

    if you allow folding, do you allow bitcoin mining?

    i think if they did they would be doing it themself

    @DotVPS said: What was issue?

    Router had a power supply failure. It sits on the bottom of the stack and gets cooked; i've been thinking about moving it to the top of the rack. We've been looking at replacing it in anticipation of moving to gigabit. Adam swapped out the power supply module, and we're back up. You'd think that a router that has replaceable power supplies would have the option for redundants, but I guess not...

    @netomx said: if you allow folding, do you allow bitcoin mining?

    Yes, but your VPS container will be moved to the lowest CPU priority pool, and your mining process will be auto-nice'd to 19. So if you choose the cheapest plan, you'll get one half of one CPU core, and then you'll only get idle cycles of it. You'll only get like 3 to 10 mhash/sec, while everyone else is getting 500+ with their GPU's, so it's probably not worth it. You can ask @wiiguy what kind of throughput he's getting with his folding, vs his regular computer.

    @DotVPS said: Heat rises?

    It's the bottom thing on the rack, and it's a half-rack, and immediately above it is a full-depth server. And the datacenter's cooling air output is from the ceiling-down. So it gets a bit of a dead zone for air where it gets quite warm.

    Moving it to the top of the rack will put it closer to the cooling air output, and give it more volume of air.

    or can't reach the AC vents

    i would say it is not worth it :) thats why im just going to use the vps for a game server after 2 more days or so :)

    but it was nice of damian(ipxcore.com) to let me try it :)

    Just wondering, do you all summer hosts are from kids?

    I run Minecraft hosting and plan on expanding soon, should I do it before summer?

    Try chicago ones... stables and good.. and cheap

    @bijan588 said: Just wondering, do you all summer hosts are from kids?

    Of course not every single summer host is by kids, but the majority are. There are genuine hosts made in the summer and genuine hosts made in the other seasons ;)

    @bijan588 said: should I do it before summer?

    You shouldn't need to worry if you're with a well established host and you pick your host right.

  • bijan588bijan588 Member

    Http://neuronhosting.com for all those wondering. We are finally approching 400 clients and I finally have the capitol to buy 4 or 5 E3 nodes.

    I have been with phenioxnap, and they have been nothing short of amazing. Anyways I plan on expanding in may.

  • bijan588bijan588 Member

    I just realized, I own a hosting company. Not looking for one :)

    I ment if I start selling in the summer would I be frowned soon?

    I am a well established game host already.

    lol, can people actually run minecraft servers on the 192mb plan?

  • netomxnetomx Moderator

    @gsrdgrdghd said: lol, can people actually run minecraft servers on the 192mb plan?

    Yes, but just for 3-4 players

    Why so high on the Minecraft 192mb plan? Do people really pay that for Minecraft servers? Maybe we should look into doing them too...

  • wiiguywiiguy Member

    @Damian said: Why so high on the Minecraft 192mb plan? Do people really pay that for Minecraft servers? Maybe we should look into doing them too...

    im guessing it is basic cost and extra cost for setting up minecraft and keeping them up too date

  • bijan588bijan588 Member

    Its the darn Control Panel licences that cost so much.

  • DamianDamian Member

    I haven't looked into it much, but I thought all of the Minecraft control panels were free? Which one are you using?

  • gsrdgrdghdgsrdgrdghd Member

    @Damian said: Maybe we should look into doing them too...

    I guess the biggest problem/cost factor when doing Minecraft hosting is dealing with the thousands of kids that don't know anything.

  • DamianDamian Member

    @gsrdgrdghd said: dealing with the thousands of kids

    I wonder if it's as bad as FPS gameservers? Y'know, with the rage-DDoS'ing and such.

  • gsrdgrdghdgsrdgrdghd Member

    @Damian said: I wonder if it's as bad as FPS gameservers? Y'know, with the rage-DDoS'ing and such.

    I don't think there will be that many DDoSes (since usually noone looses) but you will have to deal with literally 12-13 year olds that want to run a server.

  • bijan588bijan588 Member

    @Damian I use Multicraft and TCadmin, both cost money.

    Multicraft a buck a server, tcadmin is just monthly.
