Is there an administrator for virmach here? I want to know why my account was closed, request to unblock, thank you!

You can read back through the last couple of pages of this thread and you may find your answer. The short version is VirMach has been suspending VMs and closing some account due to violation of TOS. If you bought your VPS through a third party scalper and not VirMach's website the scalper probably had multiple accounts, of which he sold you one. This is a violation of VirMach's TOS and currently VirMach is purging these accounts. If this is the problem you will need to take it up with the third party you purchased from.
If you purchased directly from VirMach's website and not a third party, please state so and by tagging @VirMach he will see it next time he stops by, which should be shortly.
@Princeton said: This sound goods. I have placed an order using in house credit (which is refunded from a terminated server), but it's pending manual review in the ticket #215138. Do I need to submit anything for authorization?
Nope, and yours looks okay. It'll be cleared, you just have to wait.
Hmm, do you have any idea how long it will be cleared? Thanks.
Email is being sent to about 1,000~ people who are involved in various things. You might get one even if you're not expecting one, don't be alarmed. It's very broad and even includes cases of someone trying to hack into your account (for example, if they found your email on another low end hosts' leaked database it's possible these people will obviously try to bruteforce those emails first.)
This is just a starting place for people to be able to come forward and clear their accounts if they're already aware of a problem.
I'd obviously personally say it's probably in your best interest to actually come forward if you are aware of the issue as in the future it will only be for those who are unaware and if you were clearly otherwise aware then it makes it difficult to fix in the future.

If VirMach was scientology, I feel like you'd be the perfect person to receive the "honor" of joining the highest ranks, where you basically get to donate all your belongings and life into indentured servitude.
Anyway, I won't congratulate you because you just signed up for more work but as always, I'll always appreciate your work and I don't think Mason could have picked a better person in the world if the job title is closely monitoring and moderating a VirMach thread on LES. You'll do better than I'd care to do.

Why do I always find myself analyzing your words for hidden meaning. I don't know for sure but it may be a Pavlovian response to past Easter egg searches. I think I should blame @FAT32 .

hopefully you remain fun because i have seen promotions change a persons nature.
Change me ? Change me how?
I hope I remain fun too. I think it is a good sign that I still LOL'd at your MEME above.
Don't worry I'm not going to start correcting peoples grammar or anything like that.
P.S. If you do notice a behavioral change on my part, as a friend, I would hope that you would let me know.

@VirMach Come on, Check the information in ticket #913410, and give me feedback. This is a 2019 black Friday egg offer !!!
I'm pretty sure we already talked about it.
sure? just let me view a post? but you never check my ticket's info.
Mod EDIT: This is your 7th post on this subject in 24 hours. VirMach has answered you. Please stop or I will delete further posts regarding this subject.

I haven't really looked into Vanilla much except as a user on a few places that use it. But really? No ignore, no merge, etc. Seems pretty rough from an admin / moderator side as well as user side.

So... I don't see people complaining now. All servers online?
Besides the doomed lax0014 or whatever server, I believe everything is online, few servers still spiking but much reduced from the worst ones after the suspending run of TOS breakers. So most of the complaining is from those people thinking they are special and trying to be sneaky and pretend they have no idea why they would be suspended for buying a scalped account to run io & cpu intensive stuff on a "storage" node, as an example.
Do I look like a person who would give away an SSD32G?
@VirMach, Today I received an email. It said that something must have happened, but here's what I have to guess. No specifics. Either someone wanted to rob me, or I robbed someone. One out of two.
Probably the number of tickets has recently decreased and you are bored.
So:
1) I have never bought/sold services or accounts. I have one active account and I use it. Perhaps 4-5 years ago, during the first registration, there were problems with the panel and account or email activation. But I don’t remember what happened then, and even if some registration was, it was banned or suspended or something like that automatically because WHMCS is a buggy piece of shit that is guided by ancient bases for matching IPs and cities. My provider operates in half of my country and all IPs in this territory can be assigned to clients randomly. WHMCS is so dumb that it can't accept the fact that some people don't live in the US.
2) No idea what that means. Once or twice I paid a bill a day late because gmail sent all Virmach emails to Spam
3) I don't understand what it means
4) How do I know?
5) How wide it is. Basically, I don't know anything about it. As far as I know no one uses my account except me.
6) No
I would like to wait for the moment when I will receive a paid service and not think about anything else.
Give me some exact specifications you want for a plan and reasonable price you think it would be, I'm testing some idea. Any location but assume Tokyo for example will have an extra fee.
Has to be the following minimum, and give me the price for biennial:
Please use the same format, but you can pretty much add whatever. Try to think of what you truly want but keep it realistic, where it'd be a good deal and you'd buy it but not outrageously ridiculous like mashing random numbers and then $0.
@VirMach I received the email and I admit that I bought and sold no more than 4 or 5 accounts before March 2022, but no more buying and selling after that. I kept only one account since then, what am I supposed to react to the email? multiple accounts? or ignore it?

If you bought and sold them and they're no longer in your possession and you're sure this is the only thing wrong with the account you got the email on then there's not much that can be done, but if you should still make sure to contact us so we have it on record once we decide to deal with the leftovers.
VirBot says no 1TB RAID HDD since that's not part of anything we've set up and also says it'll be $164.82. He also can't do Tokyo without the $10 setup for that location. What should I reply to him to get him to change his mind?
VirBot says this would be $166.30 and you should consider the fact that even in the best case scenario, we were unable to do someone's requested 8GB / 80-100GB SSD / 3-4 Core / 8TB for $112 in the past.
Even hosted in a storage closet at VirMach offices, for your share of electricity costs, and if you tethered internet off my phone, it'd take around 7 years to break even. He's not willing to negotiate and also said a few things which I will not repeat here in public.
(edit) His new offer is $124.60 but I'm trying to get him to reconsider on the disk.

VirBot is starting to get nervous as you haven't replied back. He told him to try to get you to consider it for $155.82
I tried telling him he only came down $10 and I'm just wasting your time but he won't listen
(edit) I've beaten him into submission and got him to agree to doing $134.24 but again no HDD and $10 setup.

Thanks, I've opened the ticket confirming this the only one account I have now. and I have to mention that I use different proxies from other providers such as Cloudcone to log in the Virmach site, so It may appear several different IPs log in the current virmach account, I hope this does't make me flagged as multiple accounts

If you happened to use the same IP around the same time other people happened to use the same IP, then we may happen to flag you as multiple accounts but it sounds like the reason you'd be flagged as such is the whole buying and selling accounts thing unless you're saying there was no overlap.

I'm enjoying this. VirMach negotiating lower prices with VirBot is quite a turn of events. I expect this means that VirMach is no longer just jamming a manual price over ride down VirBot's throat. Negotiating for what you want, and listening to the needs of your other half, sounds healthier to me. Just saying.

@VirMach said: (edit) I've beaten him into submission
So now he's back to beating VirBot. Your right @FAT32 this can't be good .
VirBot said he was just coerced into saying he'd do $134 because I hurt him and now adamantly states it's $154. He does make a good point which I forgot about, which is that the IPv4 is making it difficult for this to happen. With 1 IPv4 he said he can do $118 no problem.

I never share the proxies with anyone, so no one would use the same IP to log in virmach site. I promise no more buying or selling in the future.

I feel like he runs on VirMach time
I received the email, normal use, normal renewal, if it violates tos, then I don't know what to say. good luck everyone.
I haven't really looked into Vanilla much except as a user on a few places that use it. But really? No ignore, no merge, etc. Seems pretty rough from an admin / moderator side as well as user side.

Yes
I'm pretty sure at this point he basically is on "do stuff until you crash, then wake up and do it again" time.
Doesn't mean it violates ToS. Read the email carefully or just ignore it if that's not an option/possible.
No one has time to read emails carefully!
So @VirMach you decided on final pricing for BF?! I need to know if I want to extend current servers or buy new one at BF if it ends cheaper!
