Torrents are allowed as long as they are legal. We don't have any hidden restrictions on torrents.
@albertdb I have never used them, and have no plans to do so. But my point was that I don't understand why LET/WHT members signup at GVH, and then complain if something is not working correct. After so much bad reviews, you must almost expect that things don't work at your GVH server.
But I understand that many people, also LET members, don't choose VPS providers from how good they are (good reviews etc), but only by how cheap their plans are.
personally I don't want to waste a lots of time on bad hosts, I would rather sit and see paint dry, then use lots of time with support, then writing and complain on different forums. I do test host that I don't continue using if they are not good, but I never pay for service with a host with lots of bad reviews. Thats why I'm using time on WHT and LET, so I know the name of the hosts I don't want to use.
Great, I'm a bit confused about this new I/O abuse script you mentioned, if for any reason a torrent needs to be verified it will recheck the files and that means the disk will be used until it's done checking.
In some circumstances this could annoy other users on the node, a 20GB file takes around 5-10 minutes on my home server, but that has a slow disk..
If you have any current deals I could use that'll be great too.

Yesterday CH1 was borked. Today NY4 seems screwy.
2.3 MB/s - SSD Cached disks they said. @Greenvaluehost - great value for money on this NY4 node... sarcasm off.
ny4 should be back to normal now, sorry guys. There was a VM running up a load of 100+ that has now been suspended
The automated software can't come soon enough :P
How much are you paying for this VPS?
Looking much, much better for me on ny4

Whoa! What node is that?
Looking better today.
@Ning - That LA node looks amazing - is that performance consistent or is it a new node, soon to be overloaded?
You know there's something wrong when the guy that oversees business goes like this. Just kidding
Lolz, You ownself seems to be astonished :-P
NY node, Another yearly deal (8 dollar per year) from GVH, pretty satisfied. 100% uptime right now.
Invitation to mass GVH disk thrashing has expired.
