How are you planning on handling the inevitable DDoS? What do the TOS say about that? For clarification on this post, see the bottom here: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=254652.msg7398362#msg7398362 |

I want all potential clients of HammerHost to consider this when you plan to buy a server: --- Quote from: Hammereditor5 on March 26, 2014, 10:05:30 PM ---For all you Lug-host clients, it's so sad that you will lose / already lost your hosting. I am willing to accept you into my hosting service, since I want to be nice and provide for the loss of hosting. For free. Just PM me. I am not trying to advertise here, but notifying Lug-host's clients that I can take them after it ends. --- End quote --- I gave Hammereditor the benefit of the doubt and assumed he was just inexperienced, and for that reason he's a moron advertising his service in my own topic. I have since reached the conclusion that he is definitely a moron, but he has assholish tendencies. Do you really want this in a host, even for free? It's like funding the politician you don't support. I wanted a balanced market, Hammereditor. We have a community here where we were the only two businesses in town - in fact, we could've been good to each other, friendly and the like, helping each other out as professionals. Staying out of the other guy's topic, offering only purely constructive criticism - rather unlike Lub and his crew, who pummeled Kalphiter. You know how it was - you (or at least your brother) was there. We really could've made something awesome out of this. Not as partners, no, that would be too complicated - rather as professionals. Turns out I'm just a loving naive moron. |

My intention was to help all of those clients who lost their hosting, but looks like my message conveyed something different. |

Kudos for that. Even if it doesn't show you're malicious somehow, it shows you're inexperienced and can't phrase what you're trying to say correctly. --- Quote from: Threule on March 26, 2014, 10:27:07 PM --->host war why dont yall work together and make a super mega cool ass thing? --- End quote --- All of my backend and underlying system revolved around using Linux servers. All of Hammereditor's revolves around Windows. Plus I don't trust him enough. Clarification - trust is multifaceted with me: One part is my belief that someone won't maliciously take advantage of me (which really isn't 100% with Hammereditor, but I guess it's enough). The other is the belief that the person I'm trusting is intelligent/experienced enough to handle whatever I'm entrusting them with. I do not believe Hammereditor has the knowledge I need to work on my systems. I have not seen it with him. I do not want to work on his systems. I refuse to work under him, and I don't want him under me, and partners would be a power struggle. It won't work. I'm not trying to troll you or hate on you Hammereditor, I'm not calling you stupid - I just don't think you have precisely enough knowledge you need for this. Regardless, good luck. --- Quote from: Lugnut on March 26, 2014, 10:04:15 PM ---How are you planning on handling the inevitable DDoS?

I knew it was only a matter of time before I got hit - the forums themselves, the auth servers, literally every hosting service has been hit at least once, some popular servers... It's bound to happen eventually - you or someone on your service will piss someone off or someone will get bored at the wrong time and you'll find yourself on the receiving end of a .5Gbps DDoS. Let me be clear that I'm not threatening you with an attack (I'm done with this hosting stuff.) - I just legitimately want to know whether you've learned anything from my service's toasted corpse and what you're going to do to prevent this from happening to you. |
