Person 1 wants you to be careful about who you let on your network and how much you let them use before building a relationship. Person 2 thinks you're a selfish prick for not letting anyone in the door to do as much as they want, when they want. Person 3 thinks person 1 and 2 should be locked in a room together.
"Something buried in there" is not good enough, and again, not acceptable in most countries where misleading advertising is concerned, and again for good reason. Meaningful limitations or caveats need to be stated clearly and upfront.
I don't know the exact situation in this specific case, so I can't judge that. But people here are certainly a bit too fast on the trigger in this case in defending the provider.
Oh, feck off with that BS. It's LET, the provider land of either No terms or we don't give a fuck what our terms say unless it suits us. But that is ok except when it is big business.
Probably just left hand not knowing what right hand is doing. Marketing and abuse teams rarely work together in any organization. One tries to get more people in, the other tries to stop a bunch of people from coming back and doing what they were before.
@AXYZE We have a similar policy with IWStack, but the reason is slightly different.
The CloudStack API is exposed and people can run various scripts to increase capacity by spinning more or upgrade capacity for instances in case of demand, but in various situations either because of attacks or because the script loops, it could allocate all available resources so we have a default limit of 20 VMs, IPs, volumes, etc.
People can ask for the limits raised within reason, of course.
I don't get it, all OP had to do to clear up the situation was create a support ticket. I don't get the urge to use LET to stir the pot when you should exhaust all communication options with your provider first.
Some do this in a faint hope that the host will bend over and agree to whatever they demand.
This actually used to work when most hosts were directly present on LET. Now that LET has started to fade away, this rarely works nowadays.
People are getting worked up over their supposed right to use credit they're handed in X, Y and Z ways. None bothered asking if he had reached out to support.
These limitations are common amongst many large providers. All it takes is...speaking to them.
Probably because the OP already said he did
And TL;DR crowd probably doesn't know the situation was also solved by support :P
I bet OP didn't list a company name.
Anyone can think about it
1 is technically "up to 10". seems legit to me.
