Sounds GREAT!
Hi @penguinunix -- Late for that round, but the party's still going!
We recently another 50 VPS to the giveaway, so you've got more chances ahead: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4885436/#Comment_4885436
Keep your eyes peeled for my latest posts within this thread
Hi @DeadlyChemist -- Woot woot, good to see you here! We've got VPS giveaways and lifetime AdminBolt licenses up for grabs -- win both and you've got a pretty nice setup going
And agreed, IMO it's a good time for fresh ideas in the hosting control panel market. Modern capabilities, a modern framework from day one, and continued attention to security and community feedback are all part of why AdminBolt appeals to us. More competition gives providers and users more choice, which this space could certainly use!

Today, I'm leaving it up to YOU to get the next giveaway going!
Show me some creativity, and help build the demand up within this thread! I can be convinced
Who's going to help, any ideas?
100 pages deserves a 100-second challenge! Give us a short task anyone can do from a phone, then let the fastest replies win.
Idea: HOMELAB SHOWDOWN round! Post a photo of your messiest/jankiest server setup - the first 5 that make dustinc laugh out loud win! Bonus points if a pen is still visible in the shot
how about upload the snapshot of the text editor that contain the code you designate
ADMINBOLT - THE MODERN WEB HOSTING CONTROL PANEL!
AINT-NO-PARTY-LIKE-A-RACKNERD-PARTY! LET'S GO!! Ready for the next round!
Proposal for the next round: the RackNerd Haiku Hunt!
First 10 original haikus about RackNerd or AdminBolt win a VPS.
Mine to kick it off:
Old-school pricing hums,
AdminBolt lights the panel —
my wallet sleeps sound.

I think your proposal, though very creative, doesn't seem to avoid robots.
A giveaway that lasts for 24 hours, 10 winners but not based on "first 10 eligible comments".
Number based, pick a number from 1 to 10,
So for 24 hours people can comment and tag X people according to the number they picked.
Multiple entries per user is allowed, but anyone they tag must not be repeated.
So if I picked numbers 3, 5 and 7 and made 3 comments tagging 3 users, 5 users and 7 users, and the winning number is 5, I stand a chance to win ( based on how many people also picked number 5 ) and 10 winners will be selected.
More participation, more exposure and tagged users. And not so active/ not currently around can also take part within 24 hour window.
Abit more work to finalize winners, but it goes a long way ( and most of it can be automated copy paste and pick winner etc).
Nice idea, but I feel we should not just do first 10 again. Maybe top 10 handpicked or most thanked.

It seems a little too complicated to count.
lol I'm not a bot, I just see the email notifications late or something
I pick #7 if that's how we're going to roll
Haha I don't think it's confirmed or even considered yet. Abit much logistics for the team.
Besides a homelab, I have a travel lab as well
It has been a while since I've actually traveled... The travel router does get way more use since I do use it around town when away from home (I treat all networks I don't own as hostile)
I think it’s still best to do small tasks like before that require a real phone or computer; or tasks that need real-world objects (like a handwriting challenge). That way, it’s fun and easy, and it can also filter out some abnormal bot accounts.
Idea for the next round, Dustin: an old-school scavenger hunt. Everyone replies with ONE legacy panel feature they miss the most and would try first in AdminBolt — most-mentioned feature wins the theme, and the first qualifying replies enter the round. You get a real feature wishlist for the AdminBolt team, we get our shot at the next 50. Win-win — what do you say?
Love this idea! My pitch for the next round: a two-part community game — 1) VPS meme contest: best meme about waiting for the next drop, winners picked by likes; 2) 'Guess the drop': everyone comments one guess for the exact date/time of the next VPS batch, closest guess wins. Both keep this thread buzzing and cost nothing to run. Count me in! 🔥
