    Congrats @DaDeveloper ! I sent you a DM and I'll hook you up.

    **Domain was offered to the community by @655 , all thanks should go to him. **

    Thank you @655 it's a nice gesture! Love it when people give back to the community!

    thanks, @655 it was fun trying to score it.. =) there was only 2 of us at that time, and a bunch of messages from @dustinc who could have won as well. but we made sure none of that happened..

    It's like the number 42, the answer to everything.

    and 42 is 6x7 ..

    SIX SEVEN

    This image looks like a rabbit rendered by a GPU running on three AA batteries — giant front teeth, stick-like ears, and a facial expression stuck somewhere between “huh?” and “why did I spawn in Minecraft on peaceful mode?”. The JPEG compression hit so hard that every pixel deserves its own tax ID number. Overall it resembles a low-budget cryptid that has survived fifteen generations of WhatsApp forwarding and now wanders the digital wasteland in glorious 144p — perfect for the LowEndForum and absolutely not to be improved in quality.

    i asked before too, but in the volume of things got no reply what that image meant..

    Thank you so much @dustinc - I really really appreciate it!

    Hi @sh97 -- you’re very welcome! And thank you for your contributions around here. The nws.sh script is still something I point clients toward on a regular basis, clean, simple, and gets the job done. Solid work on that B)

    i was just wondering this.. lets say @MrEd has those aff links there in stats, right? so then if I, an existing customer at RackNerd, click one of those aff links and order a VPS, does that benefit the link owner? I have never experienced having my aff links clicked before, but same thing is when I am an amazon customer, and on some blog I click an affiliate link leading to amazon and buy something, do people profit from it? or is it more like bringing NEW customers that buy stuff when profit kicks in? what's the process and mechanics of it?

    @dustinc could you explain how this would be treated? :)

    Hi @MrEd -- absolutely, just replied to this a moment ago but in short, any order placed after clicking someone’s affiliate link, whether you're a brand new customer or someone who has been with us for years, will credit the affiliate who referred you. There’s no “new customer only” restriction with our setup.

    Nice and straightforward, and it rewards actual referrals regardless of account age :)

    Mood: in anticipation of Ireland👀

    Dublin VPS?

    Dublin VPS is definitely highly requested, and we’re getting close. Inventory there has been moving fast, but the good news is we’re working on a fresh batch there. Once everything is finalized and ready for deployment, we’ll restock it, still on track for this month as it stands :)

    i would probably get a Dublin based VPS, i need more EU locations

    Dinner break is over. Going to continue editing my video.
    I have 10 hours of raw minecraft footage. Managed to turn the first hour into a 6.5 min video.
    9 hours still left to edit!

    This is just removing the boring parts etc. I still have to do timelapses, add music, effects etc!

    How are you recording?
    Direct recording or do you use replaymod?
    Can you send us a youtube link?

    I'm recording using OBS, but in the last few hours, I also started using the Flashback mod (similar to ReplayMod), so I'll use that for timelapses.
    Sadly, I did not record a lot with it, so I mainly have to rely on the raw game footage for now.
    I don't record directly to my laptop, instead I stream it to twitch and download the VOD after.

    i don't think anyone records directly to their machine.. it's so much easier to download. there are even browser addons that do it. i thought back in the day of making one, but then their m3u8 playlist was CSP's in place like same origin plicy, CORS etc that prevent browser from using/downloading from a website, unless request coming from that website, so i was not able to do anything, unless using one of those tamper-monkey plugins that turn all the rules upside down.. and i gave up. it can easily be circumvented with a commandline script on a proxy, but then proxy has to do all the transfers, and i's simply unrealistic..

    The twitch creator dashboard has a download button to download my VODs, so downloading it is pretty easy :)

    oh yeah? like youtube dashboard then, right? also allows download of your stuff. although twitch videos are incomparable longer.. unless you stream gameplay to youtube as well..

    Hi @bchot -- great question! If you click someone’s RackNerd affiliate link and place an order -- whether you’re a new customer or an existing one, the affiliate who referred you earns commission on that order. It’s not limited to brand-new customers only.

    So in short, if you click their link → place an order → they benefit.

    We’ve always structured the program this way because it rewards actual referrals and genuine influence, instead of trying to track “new vs existing” complications. As such, affiliates get 15% recurring on VPS services for as long as it stays active, which can add up nicely over time.

    More info here:

    https://www.racknerd.com/affiliates

    https://blog.racknerd.com/how-to-use-racknerds-promote-like-a-nerd-portal-to-earn-recurring-commissions/

    that is great to know, cause i been thinking only extreme users check out those stats, and those already have accounts most likely, but since it still benefits the affiliate - it is helping.

    Think I already know the answer, and reading this thread is kinda crazy: but is there an upgrade path for existing customers? Or is the way to cancel the old one and get a new one? Noticing that my 2020 plan is quite far behind the price/performance of the new ones (e.g., $20/year more than the same with this year's specials).

    Hi @carlb -- great question!

    The simplest route is usually to cancel/reorder. I talked about this a bit before on a previous LET post, but in short, there are logistical reasons behind this, not because performance varies between nodes, but because hardware procurement costs fluctuate over time.

    For example, a physical server we purchase today (even with the same exact specs) may cost noticeably more or less to build, compared to say 6 months or a year ago. Hardware markets shift, supply changes, vendor pricing moves around -- all of that factors into how we calculate promo pricing at that specific moment. So when we run a promo, the pricing is based on the hardware acquisition numbers from that timeframe. That’s essentially why in most cases, these promos get provisioned on their own isolated nodes. Each promo cycle has its own CAPEX model, its own hardware cost basis, and its own margins. Mixing older CAPEX cycles with newer ones becomes messy from an operational and accounting standpoint, which is another reason these promos stay on their own segment.

    With that said, if upgrading your existing VPS specifically is something you really want to explore, feel free to email me directly: [email protected] -- I can take a closer look on a case-by-case basis. There are some a la carte upgrade options available too.

    Otherwise, many customers just cancel/reorder for a clean slate and updated OS stack, and/or migrate with rsync using this guide: https://blog.racknerd.com/how-to-migrate-from-old-vps-to-new-vps-using-rsync-migrating-a-linux-vps/

    Either route works, just let us know if we can help with anything from our side.
