@dustinc @Pilotseye thanks for awesome giveaways and congrats to other winners.
Boooooom! Thank you guys! PURPLE PILL FOREVER
Congrats winners.
@Pilotseye this is great stuff you and @dustinc are doing.
Congratulations to the winners!
@FrankZ slowly you'll switch from the blue pill to purple pill
Congrats winners!
If I take your meaning correctly. I don't see a conflict taking both the blue and purple pills.
Previously I could not purchase from RackNerd because FastSpring did not like accepting my US PayPal account, being from Mexico. I have recently resolved that issue. So it is game on now and I will be adding more RackNerd as I really like the great customer service and the value that they have.

I still really like VirMach and will continue to keep the many VPSes I have with them, as I have been really happy with them for seven years now.
Some of the other 12 providers I have will be the ones I move away from as I pick up more RackNerd locations.
I am new to Virmach so maybe my perception isnt the best but they really havent kept up their word of delivering prizes I think based on whats in the thread. I am not sure if the big prizes have been shipped let alone the ryzen upgrades. I reached out to them about getting shitty download speeds on my NY machine and they just said if you have real world issue tell us. Although I can see why they might say that but that hasnt been the case with other providers I've been with. For example, my flash sale with racknerd, I raised a ticket - 10 mins later I was provisioned on a new node and boom 1gig up and down. Servarica moved me when I had terrible IOPS. I opened a ticket with Terrahost the day the flash deal was delivered about absolute ass IOPS on NVME - like 300 mbps. Got a reply in 15 mins and it was back to 5 gigs/s. I saw that they mentioned in the thread that Virmach was going to go through the ryzen upgrades on one of the days. I am not even sure if folks have been upgraded.
Every other provider like AlphaVPS and Racknerd are super prompt about their giveaways. dustin even reaches out to your personally. So dunno shrug
@BarkingIron - Which RackNerd locations do you like best. I have only tried Chicago, Atlanta, and DC02 in LAX so far. Do you have VPS in locations other then these that you feel are really good?
I have found LAX to be the best. That's where you get your ipv6 game on as well!
I got that one last month and I am really liking it so far. Anywhere else that you would recommend?
Congratulations winners!
Congratulations! Now you have to figure out what to do with yet another VPS
Perfectly fair, I've taken both pills as well
Congrats for the winners..

years ago i was using quadhost (which went bancrupt or whatever and pissed me really really off) but as for now i have like 1 other VPS (in Poland, need the VPN) and well oracle... i like to have a backup vps just incase (look what happened to facebook last year) cases are rare but for me i can just relocate the critical parts (api, maybe 2 bots) to either my raspberry pi or oracle.
but looking at racknerd i don't think they are pulling out any soon since the business model makes them money so #racknerd-go-brrrr , since some other companies are resellers and racknerd have their own infrastructure, hardware etc etc. plus actual office and registered company.
not saying all other companies are bad but it's so easy to get scammed so do your 2min research i guess (extended 2 services 1 year on quadhost, 4 months later they were gone... sigh...)
racknerd-go-brrrr?
ye like brrr brr fast/simple? it's hard to explain memes lol
Hey @DeadlyChemist I really appreciate that you took the time to tell me your experiences with quadhost. There are some good lessons in what you said. I understand the need to keep redundant providers for important services because like you said you never know what will happen tomorrow. That is why I am looking to get more RackNerd VPS as time goes on.

I take both blue and purple pills as well, happy VirMach customer since 2016 and more recently RackNerd. I like them both quite a bit, and they both have their own strengths, I certainly see no problem with taking all the dang pills as long as they're good ones.
picture doesn't look right, give me a second...
Image fixed? Wait a sec I can do better.
EDIT: I'll leave it as it was. So yours below makes sense. Nice Job @DeadlyChemist
took me like 2mins
