@ShockHosting VPS Giveaway #2

Missed out on the last giveaway? Here's the second one - another SSD-KVM-4GB for a whole year at any location ShockHosting currently offers (Singapore, Australia, Germany, USA, UK - renews at $75 per/yr)

---

To enter just thank/regard this comment & reply to it with your best regards.

I'll be switching things up a little bit with this one in the spirit of the recent Shock VPN giveaway, you'll gain more entries- upto a max of 3, depending on the age of your LET account as per below. (I'm going to hate myself in the morning when I have to manually check and add these)

1 entry for LET members with an account age of more than 1 month
2 entries for LET members with an account age of more than 1 year + 50 posts/comments
3 entries for LET members with an account age of more than 3 years + 100 posts/comments

I will draw the winner using random.org in aprox 10-12 hours from now, winner will be announced in this thread.

---

Also I'd like to give an absolutely huge thanks again to @ShockHosting for providing the two extra giveaway servers on the house, they absolutely had no obligation to go along with my giveaway let alone decide to match it with 2 more so it really shows the level of provider they are.

Full VPS Spec for those curious:
SSD-KVM-4GB
2 Cores
4 GB RAM
60 GB SSD
4 TB Bandwidth
1 Gbps Uplink
Locations: Australia, Singapore, Germany, UK, or 7 different US locations)

My best regards aren't good enough so you have my most superlative regards instead

Best is a superlative.

But it's not the mostest superlative

Perhaps not but it is the bestest superlative

i've tried many times to find an alternative thats as easy and simple to install and maintain as hetrix but failed unfortunately

i recently caved and forked out $60 for the pro version for a year

You can search ServerStatus-rust or nodestatus on GitHub

librenms would be a simple start. pretty nice.

Pro I would go for Nagios or alike

depends on inflation also, but yeah sounds right

38 because thats the limit of my hetrix uptime plan

okay you guys convinced me
if @HBAndrei gives me more uptime monitors i'll idle some more servers

I wanted more monitors but it was a steep fee to add more monitors. I wish users got an option to add on the discounted rate or similar

I opened a support ticket asking for a discount and they offered me a 30% recurring code and I countered and asked if they can make it 40%

What will happen if every provider comes up with a $7/y promo plan? I assume next year there will still be $7/y deals?
