    Well, GVH is good at sales at least. I will give him that.

    raindog308 , when you live at home, rent free and when your Mom and Dad cooks and cleans for you you can work for a 16 year old and be happy with your wages. When you have no cost of living, everything you earn is profit. That's the game he's playing, and I suspect his staff is mostly teenagers that work for GVH and other brands.

    If I start counting from the moment I made my first HTML, I already have a whopping 16 years of experience in the "industry".

    Time for a raise, I think.... (<- sarcasm)

    I'll order an OpenVZ node management plan from them, and run a cron every 3 hours to do a rm -rf / --no-preserve-root, and expect them to fix everything for me, within 10 minutes. Actually, nah, that wouldn't work, I'll run a cron for an rm -rf /etc/vz/conf/*.conf every 3 hours and then have them fix the configs for me every 3 hours. And I'll be running 200 containers on the node. After all, they have 100 years of experience, it should be a child's play for them.

    I'd do the support for your node for $20 bucks a month if that's all you did... you know... because I can also write crontabs and scripts...

    I don't know how to express how not destructive that crontab would be. "You mean I already know what the issue is going to be and it is going to be the exact same issue every 3 hours?"

    Come up with something a little more inventive if you want to be evil.

    Robert Clarke was at least believable.

    Robert Clarke is still around, isn't he?

    Wasn't/isn't he ServerCrate?

    Robert was banned, he tried one of the WHMCS exploits on a provider or two and got caught. Big drama, shock

    Honestly this seems to be getting a wee bit out of hand. Why does there need to be a thread about each and every post and offer that GVH makes?

    ^ That's it. Keep calm and move on with life.

    kids with nothing better to do. I'm still happy enough with my $10/yr NY 2014 special, couldn't care less about anything else to do with the company

    I love GVH, keep up the amazing work.

    The drop in IO is probably shovehost being an asshole again.

    You write a script that does a random walk through your hard drive and randomly deletes a file every few minutes/seconds until the vm crashes then autosend a request for fix. You must also ensure that the data MUST be saved and cannot be wiped every so often. To do this you could probably do something like hosting a host monitoring service which pings every say 1 minute or some such nonsense. This way they can't just wipe the drive and clone in a new one. Additionally your application installation should choose random places on the hard drive to locate it self.

    Including randomly named mount points that delete themselves from the fstab would also be fun (the mount point would exist only in memory and they would have to manually figure out what the mount was and how it worked to get the application live again).

    Essentially what you need to do is write a polymorphic application that just fucks with itself that cannot be easily cloned/wiped/restored.

    Can't even get dedicated orders right, they should have a new slogan "The customer is always wrong and doing something wrong".
