Well it is complicated, at first I was thinking to organise AMA and surely people will ask this so I can answer but I am lazy.
Anyway the chase for low end deals started very long ago when I was still a poor student, I got to try out VM for less than $1/m. That one single VM has allowed me to try out a lot of different stuff and I also hosted a lot of fun stuff there with my friends.
Ever since then, I am grateful about how such community exists and as a thrifty person myself at that time, this is really eye opening. I am always a lurker on LowEnd community ever since I got cyber-bullied in the past in online community and IRC, so I no longer participate in any online communities.
But it all changed when @Nekki and others are still around and they made some of the best megathread. I had a lot of fun and that's when I decided to join the community (you can see my join date is during Black Friday). I started out a bit more careful and slowly I get used to the atmosphere. Of course with all the crazy deals by @VirMach it makes it even better.
As someone who likes to help others, making things happen, and organize events, I tried to compile lists and help with the formatting of deal posts, as a way to give back the community. I got rewarded with the tag "Deal Compiler Extraordinaire" by @trewq (Past admin), and after being active in the community for a while I became a Mod and Admin subsequently.
I don't want the legacy to die and want to try out some innovative ideas, that's when I planned for an organised flash sale. Not only it would ensure a constant stream of deals, I can also try to negotiate with providers beforehand. I studied what they offered before recommending deals that would be attractive, and some of the deals you see this few days actually has gone through quite a bit of negotiation to even make it happens.
So ya... it is a mix of wanting to give back, doesn't want the legacy to die, and among other things I want to make something successful. There's definitely some hiccups but over the years I learned a lot. I would say this community has helped me a lot, at least it changed me on the psychological areas where I would never expect. I am more outgoing than I was in the past, and I have become more confidence nowadays.
I appreciate all the appreciation posts toward me, but I have to say thanks again to everyone of you that makes me who I am today.
(Never expected to type so much but it is midnight here and getting a bit emotional)
damn i was sure it was 90 for a year clickbaiter arg

I want to understand how the bots work to snatch the deals. Of course they can immediately open the webpage for the deal as soon as its posted. But I wonder how can they login, fill the details and checkout etc?
Envy the passionate experiences
xm
hahaha
Go to vps.blackfriday and find one that points to WHMCS with pid of 256
It's going to end up as a disaster, honestly. Even Calin learned from that. HostHatch too.
read LET, look for link or coupon code, try to automatically fill it in, else just send post requests with the right information

The forum is loading slower and slower the more i refresh
meh i ordered from @host_c from my phone twice, its not impossible with some offers
edit: was actually sitting in the passenger side of a car and shouted yes then had to explain why i was excited
because I couldn't log in (despite registering at checkout), I somehow managed to buy this accidentally twice (2 different server locations)
then I registered again with the same email (not through the checkout menu) and now I have 3 different usernames with the same email.
and each of my orders is connected to a different username (even though this is 1 email)
order #9429470
order #5044179
do I have to make a ticket?
@FAT32 very nice read
about the community here, and participating in it, ESPECIALLY in this thread, but in the community as a whole as well, it's impressively positive given the nature of the harsh language and the limited deals, truly a special place. Very cool how it helped you gain confidence to participate and now actively help others doing so too
