This has been fixed, we have stronger logic now so single backend, multi domain, multi ports works now instead of randomly going offline after around 6 hours.
...
I did still experience difficulty with a backend running on a different port than 80. My service running on port 3001 would turn Unhealthy after some time and not recover, while the service was fine. HAProxy wouldn't serve it. I've since put it behind an Apache proxy on my host and it's been solid ever since.
May have been a glitch in the matrix, but thought I'd let you know in case it's helpful.

There was a bunch of fixes put in last week, maybe 2 weeks ago now, and we have not had a single HAProxy-related ticket since (of this nature) we did cause some 'reverse logic' issues when we tied the static hosting into it. seems to be pretty solid now on any port as long as whatever you run has a 200,301,302 response code at least 1 out of 100 times we try to connect.

Free credit is back on registration; we made some improvements around the checks.
Additionally, you now only get enough to test things for a few hours, a day or 2 at most if you really go ultra minimal, this allows people to actually test things, not just use the test as a way of getting free service. Hopefully, the effort will outweigh the reward now for attempting to get 100 free accounts.

Indeed, businesses that support BYOIP are a level above in terms of professionalism and flexibility.
TierHive, however, is not enterprisese-grade or even what I call, enterprise-fake (pretending to be cutting edge and pretending that it's not a small-scale operation) so professionalism really is of no concern, I would rather just be a human about things.
That said BYOIP is something we will do, I am both excited to get started on it and also anxious about the time suck I know it is going to be. so we will do it because its cool, not because we think anyone will actually use it a bit like IPv6, maybe even less so.

Damn... I missed that "one trick to save you money"

BYOIP would be incredible, another +1 for it

We will see how it goes.

I created my first server yesterday. Beautiful.
