[Tingalz]

It even looks like he said nothing about being able to do anything, there's no terms of agreement or stuff like that

Kalphiter , he did not buy a server that for you control

U-U

If you're paying him then he shouldn't be able to do all the stuff he wants

Quite funny, since you didn't read the OP who realized this was in error.

The only error he made was the ban log. It doesn't excuse you from being a prudish starfish to your own clientele.

I don't know how many times I have to say this for it to sink it, but Kalphiter is a bad person. By extension, anyone who gives him money is a bad person or just completely oblivious.

You're seriously better off putting that money into a better internet connection and hosting it yourself. The dude rents his servers in Germany under the delusion that foreign servers are cheaper and better. Even on the very generous assumption that he's correct, unless you're in Europe the ping is going to be atrocious for players in the United States, which is the majority of them. You're not getting a good deal, and I don't know why you'd willingly subjugate yourself to Kalphiter's bullstuff. I wouldn't use his servers if he paid me.

i can get the being a richard to people for the sake of being a richard. whatever.

but once you take money from people, the rules change. you dont have the right to pull weight around the community as the super host-god kalp is clearly acting toward his clients.

It's your server, Kalphiter has no special permissions to forget around with your property.

It really isn't up to me, but to my parents. Again, I can't host, simple as that.

HOWEVER, I do have to say the location sucks. I usually ping in at ~190 which is awful. He did say he was going to move the server eventually, though, so that's cool.

Translation: He will never move the server.

i thought kalph was just renting himself. and giving you all cuts of the bandwidth and server.
"just move it" would mean him canceling the service, and starting a new deal with a new server elsewhere.
i dont see him going through the trouble now that hes got a dozen of you on his billing cycle.

Idk.

He did post that he was going to in the topic.

Plus, I think he lives in the US so he might benefit from it as well, an added incentive.

Simple solution for now, Kal should set up something along the lines of an EULA, preferably one people will actually read. That way he's more or less legally binded to not be a richard.

Uh...

EULA stands for End User License Agreement.

These are made to protect the rights of the business, not the other way around. The End User is agreeing to The Business' License.

oh wait you're right. .-. that'd make the user legally bound to put up with kal being a richard... that could work too. :B

Solution: Don't use his servers.

[Aphtonites]

Why don't you try putting some effort into hosting yourself, then?
