    To be honest, whatever I said about Leifur & Kjartan, let's remember that it was managed miles better than the Kuxo management, this is so bad I first though they were joking about blaming everything on each other publicy.

    Not to defend Leifur & Kjartan, that whole situation was a meltdown too.

    But the way that Leifur & Kjartan left KUBBUR seems resonable comparing to the way Ellis & Jack handels Kuxo - and that's just crazy.

    Seriously, is this a fun or Drama thread?
    I keep browsing here and laughing.

    We should call netflix to make a movie called "Kuxo".
    Basically 14 year olds running a hosting company. Would be fun i think

    This image is interesting:

    That's Leifur. Take a look at the background "photos". Isn't that behind him Northlayer & KUBBUR?

    Never mind that, he's really the CEO of Kubbur? He looks like he still has 3 or 4 years of school left before starting University!

    Here's a financial analyst working as an advisor for KUBBUR:

    https://www.f6s.com/gunnartryggvason

    "11y in finance".

    I wonder if those 11 years could have helped foreseen this.

    Funniest is though that his only experience is "advising" Kubbur and Scaleblade.

    I reckon he's just one of their dads.

    And the advice was probably "don't".

    So, when the guy was going on the other day* how because he gets the servers for cheap because "nobody pays full price" and how he could still make money if he sold for $1 per GB with unlimited bandwidth... I wonder if Scaleblade know that they're possibly providing the machines!

    [*] I think that was in the very long and interesting rant that quickly got replaced with a one-liner.

    Ah, another CEO in the building. Who would have guessed.

    After all, they’re much smarter than us so we simply might never understand their brilliance.

    Goes for Ellis too.

    I'm not the smartest guy. But my host has definitely outran all of Nigh's and Leifur's hosts as far as how long my host has been up without downtime and it's revenue. It gets me to at least 400 USD A month which is good enough for me selling web hosting lol.

    KUBBUR didn't make more than 400 bucks lol?

    Well it definitely couldn't pay the bills that's for sure. Couldn't even pay their own developers.

    But it did make more than 400 bucks, right?

    So your host didn't outrun them.

    My host outran them as far as it's existence & stability

    But not revenue, like you claimed.

    Actually their revenue sucked ass i'll say that. They were not earning anything so I would say yes I did outrun them. They tried to tell me they had 70-90k in the bank but it was a big ass lie.

    "Revenue describes income generated through business operations, while profit describes net income after deducting expenses from earnings."

    Yes exactly. My host profits more than kubbur. Kubbur wasn't profitable with their pricing and the expenses they had. When I took over the branding I told one of Path's Staff I'm not using Path

    So... girls also get the -son last name? That's fucked up and needs a 21st century update.

    Girls get the "-dóttir" suffix. As for 21st century updates there's also the "-bur" suffix, for those who don't identify with the binary gender system (e.g. non-binary individuals).

    Yeah, lets cancel Iceland! Their naming system sucks and isn't fit!

    The idea that they named their company after a non-binary baby bear is pretty funny, even if not true!

    I quite like that alternative origin story :D. I hadn't thought of that!

    But actually, the word translates to "cube" in Icelandic (or "block" is maybe more specific/appropriate) and it was chosen because KUBBUR was originally a Minecraft hosting company.

    that's not really true. Actually many hosts still resell and profit like crazy, Kubbur shut down not because of reselling but because of the crazy cost of owning their hardware.

    He probably have gotten kicked from tempest/path and not saying that in public he just got kicked cause that's what path network aka tempest hosting do to their customer just saying.

    They ran out of funds to pay for bills. Anyone would kick you out. Also, they were colocating not "reselling". I think someone here said he sold kubbur a cabinet and someone said they were waiting on hardware to arrive which never came. I think what happened is they got an entire cabinet but barely filled it up and couldn't make enough revenue to cover their costs.
