always gotta look out for really dark websites. usually means bad stuffs on there. at least in my experince...
its a service provided by Pecon, who is a trusted and experienced member of the community. she has said once that she doesn't make money off the service - it just manages to sustain itself.
yes, in general, sites like that without context are dodgy, but don't let it prevent you from actually looking into the quality/reliability of the service.
I have an auto saver but sometimes it doesn't autosave stuff and now my server has been sent back to the save from 10:00 this morning because the server crashed.
Are you using Visolator's updated autosaver mod? Its mostly bug-free, but due to some default settings it may not always start up when your server starts.
