Best of luck. Please continue to update your clients with any information you believe will help them make an informed decision.
I'm not el8 enough like you to "destroy" #lowendtalk
I've probably been on IRC longer than most of them have so I don't need to suck on anything
Highly doubt it.
My minecraft server is saved 🙏
Loving the username, BDL.
Migrate your data, and get nice sleep.
Unless nothing important on VM you can using it until next announcement.
I can send you some?
I don't talk about you, and if you watch my original comment, you'll find I talk about MaxKVM won't provide any details to customers as per their comment before mine.
And thankfully I take a full backup and up and running websites in 15 minutes after outage. Thankyou for your advice and I learned many things from this incident.
Apologies then. But yeah from the looks of it, this is probably the only chance or time you have to get your data before this site could go offline completely. Without your own backups you might be SOL. Also no guarantees yet if MaxKVM will be willing to give out free servers or credits to people.
Hope for the best. Prepare for the worst.
Can you at least tell what the PMS was the “free speech issue” then? You shouldn’t slander a host just like that without also sharing the relevant details.
I'm sorry. The comment you quote says no comment can be made yet.
Good guide about 1 command -> full KVM server move.

Although I'm not a customer, I'm glad this message has finally come out this way, it's just a shame it took a lot of nagging for you to even just say effectively "we're working on it".
Whilst it's clear that this entire situation has been handled badly, I must admit I do also feel quite sorry for MaxKVM. Although it's clear from that other thread that he can be unprofessional at times towards customers, it's also pretty unfair that his supplier can basically destroy his business. Looking at his website (apart from the the the status pages are showing green for all but one day this week), it's clear that he's put a lot more effort into it than a lot of the other budget providers, many of whom seem incapable of even customising a stock billing platform with their logo. And this thread is kind of a distraction really... whether this thread existed or not, a lot of customers will just walk at the next renewal cycle if not before, so whatever the rights or wrongs of the situation with HV, it will cause his business a lot of harm. That said, having all his eggs in one basket with one upstream provider for every data centre was also something he should have avoided as well.
then i'll wait the announcement
true
I’m curious which datacenter would like to work with you, given that they’re signing up for you brigading your users at the slightest hint of a fallout.
true
You have inside information? Please provide more details.
@tigerous you did not properly tag
@_MS_in your statement above.EDIT: In just before the ban hammer fell.
Is there seriously nothing in place to prevent this?
I guess not but at least I got a thread full of drama to read
@jbiloh @FAT32
And he's (finally) out (again)
But it took a while (again)
I feel like you've been here long enough to know the answer is never yes.
Is it to much to ask for a limit to the amount of @ on a post?
Unless you're offering to fund the development work, yes.
I feel a lil left out not being included in the mass spam @ post
is okay, we too new to feel his ire.
You can take my spot.
@tinyweasel can we do that next time? Much appreciated
Between MaxKVM and TinyWeasel this is a clusterfuck.
