    So the issue was, they havent paid there bills. That wont get you very far. Massive respect to 8x8 for doing this for Brandon's clients, thats a big plus in my books.

    Totally saw this coming. Expect the same thing when the Softlayer bill comes rolling around. This makes his ONLY response on LEB even funnier:

    Reading through these comments amazes me at the rampant speculation and conspiracy theories.

    My favorite is how anyone could think that someone could be a “runner” to anywhere with 7.00/mo accounts. No way..

    In a nutshell there have been some problems I am dealing with eNetSouth. Over the weekend there were some problems with our services in Birmingham, AL which is what led to email problems. Now resolved.

    The past day there are problems with our San Jose VMware. Between the rampant fraud, abuse and theft of services I am are exiting the VMware LowEndBox market. OpenVZ offers such as this one will not be a issue. VMware customers that are not using the VMware price tiers will not be affected but I have to draw the line with those losses somewhere.

    I appreciate everyone’s patience while I get this sorted out.

    Brandon

    Those $7/month 2GB runners!

    Damn it.. someone turned off my VPS... I bet it was Brandon.

  • turbokiturboki Member

    Mine are back online....backing up everything NOW!

    THANK YOU ANDY, you're getting an assortment of cheeses and maybe a card!

  • turbokiturboki Member

    Oh also, thank you thaidavid! Hope your VMs come back online!

  • danielfengdanielfeng Member

    Okay so it's confirmed that Brandon is actually a runner?

    I wouldn't call him a runner, but given how long he has been at 8x8 i'm assuming he's more than just a single month behind. If the softlayer (the $7/m 2GB) plans go offline, then it'd sound like it though :(

    So far so good, but let's see what happens later.

    Er, wait.

    The 2GB OVZ's are down? The ones he posted to the front page?

    If you got a busy SQL, get the shared SQL - best $1/m you'll spend :)

  • thaidavidthaidavid Member

    OMG, is up!

    I thought it was alive because enscloud, but it isn't... so, doing my backup now, and erasing...

    This is sad

    $ uptime
 19:24:21 up 113 days, 18:40,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.05

    Where can we write to the people at 8x8? They are good =)

    $7 runners...

    Edit: sorry, I read the mail

  • thaidavidthaidavid Member

    How are you guys doing your backup? I am using ssh and transfering my stuff from one server to the other.. is there anyway to backup the whole image?

  • yomeroyomero Member

    I think you can't, maybe the admin in vSphere can. Just use ssh or rsync, no option =/

  • AuroraZAuroraZ Barred

    You guys owe 8x8 big time. Might be nice to write them an email thanking them. That is a company more people should be doing business with.

    Good man :-)

    I would also like to thank Andy at 8x8 for enabling Brandon's ports long enough that we can at least get a backup - that is all I was really hoping for at this point since it is pretty obvious that Brandon has gone AWOL. Too bad, he seemed like a really nice guy from all the times I had any contact with him, but apparently even nice guys don't pay their bills.

    Thanks again to Andy and the 8x8 crew for letting me save my data.

    I didn't get a positive reply but the provider said they forwarded my Email to Brandon, and 10hrs later my VPS in Bama was up.

    I have actually tried Zerigo before (quite a while ago, before 8x8 bought them) and it's actually quite good. Developer centric like Linode and Rackspace/Slicehost. Pricing is out of LEB range though.

    What about LET, will it move out from enetsouth soon?

    Yes LEA, move from eNS!! I'm moving as well

    Hey up providers,

    Who's going to sponsor/host LET?
    Fran you have servers in san jose right?

    I would recommend anyone with a ens service to immediately back up even if you have no problems as this doesn't look good.

    Does anyone know Brandon's surname , begins with a c??

  • PinoyPinoy Member

    I really like this servers :(

    I sent LEA an offer for, at the very least, a temp spot if he wanted to split away from the 'sponsored' locations. It's really up to him, he knows I've always been quite active on here, likely more here than on the front page even :)

    Crawf**d is his surname. I wish he could still keep this vmware servers :(

    I don't think it's a choice right now. If he owes the money then he owes the money.

    I'll be honest, after the tiff him & I had over the 32GB RAM argument he sent me a PM on here stating that all of his VMWARE stuff makes more than enough cheddar and his new plans were to prove a point (i'll leave that out). Maybe he's on vacation but, as I said somewhere else, he has been with 8x8 for quite some time now and was around on the front page so he knew it was due. On top of that 8x8 i'm sure would give him some sort of grace period since he's going to be on contact with them.

    I dunno, as I said, any time I see people randomly rolling out $15/y's and uber amounts of RAM, especially UDIMM's, it looks sketchy.
