List Hosts That Allow Torrents & IRC

I thought it would be an interesting idea to make a list of hosts that allowed legal bittorrent and IRC activity, I'll start it off:

BuyVM (http://www.buyvm.net/)

Hostigation (http://www.hostigation.com/)

Thanks to anyone who contributes!

  • prgmr http://www.prgmr.com - but their bandwidth offer seem too low.

  • prefiber.nl and citynethost.com

    (currently I don't have VPS from the second provider but they used to allow torrents if it's legal content)

    P.S. does ramhost.us still allow legal torrents? they used to.

    joking, right? citynethost does not allow IRC.

  • FranciscoFrancisco Top Host, Host Rep, Veteran

    That doesn't stop lots of people from doing it :)

    There was a guy that used to come around our IRC channel (before we banned him) that used to BNC out of his citynet to efnet to go piss off the skiddies. He used to return SYN floods at them since he 'didnt care' about the setup (likely carded).

  • Haven't we done this already a couple of times now?

  • Not sure, I couldn't remember seeing it on LETv3...

    I can't seem to picture citynet outputting much bandwidth

    SYN is about high PPS not mbits :)

    @rm_: lol? so I probably didn't notice it, IRC worked there like a charm

    P.S. this board software is really weird...

    In which way?

    it works but it very specifically mentioned in their TOS so you risk getting your account terminated if they notice.

  • @skagerrak: how do you exactly cite someone? i can't see any button for this (Opera browser)

    block the text you want to quote, and a pop up 'quote' button will show up ;)

    Make use of Markdown.

  • Still doesn't work in my FF. Both on the laptop with 3.6.20 and with the library's 5.something.

    But Markdown is parsed by the board-software and rendered as normal HTML. So as long as you can see HTML-styled text it works.

    And for the popup (with FF 3.6.20 and 3.6.21):
    And the popup

  • yup, I see the quote button, click on it and the browser drops down to the comment form but nothing passes.

    It works with Firefox 5.0.1 in windows and Firefox 6.0.1 in Linux. maybe the problem is one of the firefox extensions.

  • I;m stuck on various versions of 3. Both are pretty much empty addon wise,

    Thanks though.

    me too. my mac mini powerpc not compatible with chrome and firefox 5/6 :( thankfully safari still available. :P

    @ksx4system yes we still allow legal torrents as long as you don't rape the hardware :)

    We also allow IRC in select locations such as Atlanta and London and will begin allowing IRC in Kansas City and Los Angeles soon as well.

  • May want to run it at a max of about 150kb/sec. That's what I do with mine.
