  Agreed. That's what I think is sad: A lot of people can't separate the service from the service owner. While the behavior of the service owner does heavily impact the effective reliability of the service, a lot of people want to assume that good owner == good service and bad owner == bad service.

  Some of the most friendly and trustworthy providers on LET barely know what they're doing, and likewise VeloxMedia could be the most premium provider in existence, but people would argue against that just because of the owner's behavior. Personally, I think the services they provide are higher-end than most, but because of their actions, I can't feel comfortable that my VPS won't be gone tomorrow, which does impact my overall assessment of the service.

  There's a lot of nuance that people ignore.

  Some like to attribute who-knows-what and then some to a certain person. I however prefer to enjoy my nice little VPS from @VeloxMedia which is running fine and without interruption since I rebooted it (months ago).

  FWIW I do not think that dedigod is an Eric alt.

  You have zero credibility. Simping for this host makes every one of your "reviews" questionable.

  In fairness, there's nothing technically wrong with the services, just the owner's behavior and actions. While we may disagree with @jsg's judge of character, I see no reason whatsoever to doubt his technical reviews.

  He released his benchmark app years ago. I tested it on CloudatCost and Oracle and shared results with him.

  tl;dr the numbers were wildly inaccurate. Oracle had 25MB/s rate limiting in place and CaC was oversold garbage so it was easy to see retarded numbers that were nonsensical.

  He threw a hissy fit and stopped releasing the benchmark app because myself and others questioned the app behaviour. So no, his technical reviews can't be trusted.

  He also made up this "web ping" that he thinks is somehow useful.
