    @pbx said: Also keep in mind that at some point it can be cheaper to rent a whole rack than a bunch of servers; same goes for bandwidth. Growing, even without making much profit on it can be economically worth it for some providers. It's also a good way to hoard on ipv4...

    Servers in general is a business of economies of scale. More you buy, the cheaper stuff gets, the less overall you take

    @FAT32 said: A lot of my discussion with providers are informal and it is easy to have back-and-forth messages discussing about deals and this is one of the most important key to get many good deals.

    Good point. Perhaps consider a less formal approach but still have the final deals submitted via a ticket so that fatbot can post without you needing to run the thread at 3AM?

    @FAT32 said: It is easier said than done, how about you try to do it next year?

    It seems like my suggestions hit a nerve even though it was only suggested in good faith. I'll show myself out.

    @FAT32 said: There's also providers who has given up on LET market due to our toxic behaviour, which I encouraged them to join us again, give us another chance and have a try. - This all cannot be done in the form of Google Forms.

    LET toxic?

    Those guys have never been to reddit i see ...

    Sorry, it might be just because I am exhausted today, it could be better or more neutral if we discuss this days or weeks later

    Actually, in all seriousness, I don't know what I'd use it for. Maybe for backup, but I already have all the data on my server backed up between themselves and a redundant copy at home, and all my important home data is backed up on the server too. I was almost tempted for a bit because $CHEAP, but it's better someone else enjoys it. But thanks for creating the deal anyway!

    @FAT32
    What I was thinking while anticipating the deals was, what if the schedule wasn't always precise? What if one deal came at, say 9:33, then the next at 10:09, then at 10:54. There's still a sort of a schedule, but a bit of randomness.

    And then instead of using the same template, why not change a thing or two every deals, like make the button's color different, or move things around, or change the code a little bit. Perhaps it can throw off script users, even if just a bit.

    ANOTHER NEVER BEFORE SEEN SEEDBOX SPECIAL: 3 YEARS 39,99€ SEEDBOX

    Full series info: https://pulsedmedia.com/value250-seedbox.php
    These are old servers, expect an migration during that 3 years to an Debian 10 server.

    but wait there is more ... in a while, on the same series of servers. will release that in 30mins or so

    I can't deal with paypal, you can cancel my order (Invoice #152852).

    That could work and I considered doing that before but after thinking again it actually makes bot easier and human even harder.

    Bot can refresh every 5 seconds, can you? Same thing for template, it is very easy for bots to detect links, but changing some styles is making human harder to recognise where to click

    will shortly as i sort out all those unpaid ones in a little while. There is still several others pending payment, will cancel all of them at once and replenish.

    Also, the consistent style was nice I thought and made it easy to find when scrolling through the thread later on.

    I think you are absolutely correct on both counts. The actual html would need to change.

    Timing, a human can concentrate just F5 for a minute or two, bot can do that indefinitively.

    Perhaps sometimes hide promocode to a photo instead of text & link? That would make it harder for bots.

    Show promocodes after solving captcha on external page, there, solved.

    People would RIOT.

    Hopefully, one wasn't me. If it was (the username should be obvious, feel free to remove it), it was because I clicked through and almost succumbed, but then unapplied the coupon and removed it from the basket hoping not to spoil it for others.

    I think that if bot refreshes every 5 seconds, it can be detected and block.
