  I suppose everybody has their kicks.

  I find it better if providers state the resource limitations and caps.

  You were probably a noisy neighbour, just adjust your usage slightly.

  Is their support ticketing system not working for you?

  Based on your thread history of hunting for cheap unmetered bandwidth VPS's and your LET username, are you sure you didnt use like 100tb in less than a month and then pull the "idk whats going on, my usage was completely normal" card? 💀

  To be fair, @SKRIME said multiple times, even when asked directly, that it’s truly unmetered and that you can push as much traffic through it as you want with no fair use limits.

  @Alyx Fair point to raise, but the suspension had nothing to do with traffic. That part is genuinely unmetered and stays that way. It was CPU.

  On our regular plans the cores are shared with the other VMs on the node, so running them pinned at 100% around the clock isn't what those plans are for. That's the same CPU fair use we've described publicly in our offer threads. In practice we only step in when a VM sits at 100% permanently, and that's what happened here.

  Out of curiosity, OP said it was suspended with no warning before. Was this intentionally or did he miss something, like an email or a ticket perhaps?

  We offered a deal to this user but our prices had been a little higher than Skrime but did not seem the offer was suitable.
