Wow things got a bit intense here…
But I just came to say that my dedi was provisioned. Feel free to bet on a USA win tomorrow.
They don't care about customer at all no matter MJJ or whatever the f you are is what i perceive up until now.
So you are mad when they don't respond to complaints here and, then you yell at them to go process tickets when they do response here after being directly tagged? This is why we can't have nice things.
At the end of the day Simo, Dartnode and others are real people behind the keyboard trying their best to deliver a service, whether you like or buy that service, is totally up to you. Whether you think they provided adequate service is totally up to your opinion and you can choose to patronize them or not in the futre.
But what is the point of yelling at a technical support person when they come here and provide a explanation of the status to an issue that someone has been complaining about for multiple days now?
Am not yelling, I am suggesting a work instead of yapping or arguing here with customers? xD
And who you?
This is going stupid
Maybe that is what Simo did all day and part of their job is to also check LET for issues? Or should they do nothing but respond to tickets for 14 hours straight?
I am no one but a Dartnode customer waiting for a server to be provisioned except I apparently have a little more patience than some of this community.
To be clear, I am not defending Dartnode, they have made mistakes with this sale, but demanding they should go back in their hole and respond to tickets when they do post here isn't great for this community and isn't a good look for you.
OK!

My guess: someone used IP spoofing (which DartNode has not blocked) to harm the network or simply take revenge on the provider for their frustrations by doing DDoS. A client (and likely others too) happened to have the IP which the attacker used and was caught in the crossfire between provider and abuser.
Solution: the management should add a limitation that blocks sending packets as another IP. This is not staff fault, but likely management fault for possibly cutting corners. However, some customers are very happy with DartNode as it is, because they can successfully use IP Spoofing of Dartnode to bypass the firewalls of their own country for their personal freedom online.
It is one of those cases of: damned if you do, damned if you don't. Some people simply hate nice things.
Spoofing won't manage to complete a TCP handshake since the response packets would need to come back to the party, which sent the request, and they won't if the sender is... well... spoofed.
There could be some intention behind the whole thing but it would probably rather be someone hijacking random IPs belonging to other VPS because the setup doesn't prevent it (whole subnet on a single virtual interface or whatever). Admittedly that also includes sending packets from an IP you technically don't own.
Maybe. In any case the staff doesn't seem to give two single fucks going by the self righteous nonsense they post.
I don't see any nice things outside of maybe the dedis.
Will you deploy a copy of this website in support of Daniel?
I fail to see where TCP was mentioned.
Yes. I believe there is a problem on provider's side. When a provider allows for more "features", more customers tend to come, driving up sales. Surely, the customers might not be of good quality, but maybe the management of company simply cares for profits in selling features to bypass firewalls. I don't know the big picture here, so can't say anything with certainty.
Staff is forced to protect the provider. They are paid for it and surely have signed an NDA.
I do see nice things. I had fun in the event, and I also like very cheap cloud servers. The only aspect I don't like is the manager of this company — but that's just me. I appreciate the staff and workers who really tried their best in this event.
How many times have you used SSH over UDP?
Sucks to be them, i guess.
Well that's great. Personally i couldn't care less about some cheap VPS from a host i wouldn't trust with anything serious anyways. There's enough alternatives available that don't make me jump through a bunch of hoops and sometimes even lack the questionable reputation. I'm happy you enjoy it though.
I did received a ticket responds from Daniel said "can do" after i said the OS i choose, but that was 5 hours ago, so more wait time for me? but i remembered that other customer would get their dedi's in an hour after choose the OS, so i guess every time things moves take at least 2 days? because my dedi's were stuck in the queue for over 48 hours, and then 48hours for the OS again?

Could you please go ahead and take care of this ticket? Thanks!
This is LET. Be very careful when it comes to trusting a provider with anything serious around here. Many bots have registered in this place nowadays, watching, ready for snatching offers and for reporting activity in other forums, a sign that providers might sometimes dig their own grave when posting offers here. The internet keeps turning into a very bad place as people and freedoms are oppressed.
Personally, I use the servers for fun and personal projects. But then... it depends on also on what you consider serious.
They clearly had some issues within the first few hours. I picked up a $10 VPS-1 just an hour or two in and one of the $7 VPS-1's when that flash sale hit. One was provisioned within a couple hours of the $7 purchase, but I'm still waiting on the other. Kinda surprised to see any of the dedi's being provisioned at all, to be honest. Tickets and purchases don't seem to be getting processed in FIFO order
the guy paid and never got access to his vps and got banned, what are you yapping about???
So much grumpiness today
VMs should have been provisioned already, shoot me an invoice # or something, and I can look up the service for you
We have reviewed your account and the lock has been released
Please note that the account had 6 abuse complaints, including some from our upstream transit providers, within 24 hours. Please make sure the system is not compromised and this does not occur again
People are upset. It has been more or less a week
Spoke too soon, my dedi was provisioned, got everything ready but it’s offline and all functions on my panel aren’t enabled.
Could you maybe check it? Ticket #26442
Thank you!
Did you noticed that how long were your dedi in "in build queue"?
Has the 20-point reward for the comment been issued?
@keoir Please check order #34341, it's now "in build queue" for 2hours now, any idea when it will ready?
You have to be kidding me. For the love off god, look at the open ticket from June 17th and note the information there. I cannot stop some other random user that is assigned the same IP as I am from abusing your infrastructure. If I am a fault, please post the information here for all to see. I will fix the issue post haste if it is my fault and admit that I was the problem here publicly. However, I do not believe I was ever at fault.
I think it was 2-3 hours or so.
Yours should be up soon I think
Looks like it is with the provisioning team, can you open a new ticket in support? Happy to take a look
