Apologies for the formatting (I tried). (Quote) If I was being a disgrace then go for it even though it is personal (which I think you are saying). However I was saying Virmach is a disgrace not the person. (Quote) No this is Virmach not the perso…

@somik - you stirrer ;) I still have servers with virmach which SHOULD be working. I am moving on. This thread does allow moans which I consider mine are valid. The use of # shows my concern and If # is not allowed why is it there. As far as be…

(Quote) Just the usual story - Ongoing multiple VM issues, no support, no status updates, automated renewal notices while server is down. In fact Think of something a provider should not do and Virmach does it.
-
@VirMach I have lost all respect for you and the company. Having 2 VMs down on AMSD018 for something like 2 months now is just DISGUSTING. You are a complete disgrace to the industry.
-
(Quote) But could I have one as it adds a bit more respect / credibility to the project. :)
-
@AuroraZero At the moment the team is concentrating on Fareham-uk and Bucharest-Romania so you are safe, but we will flag any action with hopefully 1 weeks notice. BTW so I need to request a tag change?
-
@fscarmen PM sent.
-
@hornet - thank you and I also trust Tom <3
-
@spiritlhl - PM - have fun :)
-
Yes - nested virtualization is supported. Looks like an interesting project. I have sent you a PM to register.

@somik (Quote) Assume that was a question, If you would like a server you would be welcome, just lmk. Mike
-
Just to keep everyone in the loop - (Quote) I will take over the total software side of fossvps but still feel you (Tom) need to be at the helm for sourcing new servers / negotiating with hosts and vetting new VM candidates.. When it comes to supp…

(Quote) Ok ongoing 'flapping' enabled.

Thank you @Hosteroid these contributions will really benefit others through @Not_Oles hard work. <3

I have 2 vms on AMSD018, one has been off all of the time and the other is currently up and down. I know the permanently offline one had a read only file system error.....
-
(Quote) Saves me making decisions about keeping or installing Proxmox. Thanks for doing the prep ;)
-
(Quote) Thats fine, give me someone to blame ;-)
-
(Quote) Understood - but current users lose everything hence option 3 i.e. your suggestion works with new hosts going forward. Feedback appreciated.
-
@Not_Oles and I are just making some decisions - the key points are - 1. Many complications moving existing vms over to Proxmox (nat and disk space problems / conversions) 2. Wipe all VMs and start with all new Proxmox VMs 3. Leave everything as is …

(Quote) There is certainly no harm in asking Tom :) You have been kind enough to get FOSSVPS up and running and likewise get the very kind contributions from some great providers (thanks OnlyServers et al). So I am also happy to contribute. Lets D…
-
Hi Tom, Because of the way you are growing I would suggest going over to Proxmox would make your job much easier. You are also much more likely (I would volunteer) to get more support / help. Either way keep up the great work.
-
@skorous I think your reply and history lesson are admirable (genuinely). Overall yes I do still see a problem and if this was my forum I would be doing something about it. However it is not and I can't change things. While I believe many readers un…
-
Look 'guys' I have tried to have a sensible balanced discussion but we seem to be moving away from the focus. A provider should provide. A provider could have a brilliant trustpilot but do a runner or something worse. Why should trustpilot or google…
-
(Quote) Come on, I think you are just 'discussing' for the sake of it :( So what is it, complain, moan or praise - depending upon how quiet people are (because they know what @VirMach is like), visitors could easily get the wrong impression. I agree…
-
@cybertech I think these are very reasonable comments particularly (Quote) I still feel there should be a way to indicate a provider is not providing. Just throwing out an idea - how about a "Provider not Providing" thread (sticky) in wh…
-
I would say "don't be a dick" should apply equally to a provider or member. Your example about Hetzner does not contradict my earlier comment (Quote) All the provider needs to do is say (somewhere) what and when things are happening to av…
-
(Quote) Glad we can agree on something ;-) I am certainly not and never meant to imply that the service as a whole is not good. I have servers that have been up almost a year so certainly not complaining. Yes I am complaining about the provider not …
-
(Quote) To use @somik comments - high quality is a value judgement. You used 'high' I used 'acceptable'. My comment still stands a provider should provide and when this fails there should be some action. I am saying provide and not mentioning quali…
-
(Quote) Low End should not equate to Low quality, it should be acceptable quality which (I consider) has a set threshold. (Quote) Again fair points - I am voting 'with my feet' e.g. 6 VMs cancelled so far. Yes we know the history, but that does no…
-
(Quote) I was aware of the risks (been around long enough), but there has to be a point where things become unacceptable. You certainly make a fair point about rules for new providers but really why should a poor provider be allowed to continue just…
-
So all a provider needs to do to maintain their tag is login (and do bugger all) - stupid. There has to be a line drawn where node down for X period without any view to fixing means suspend tag. All the provider needs to do is say (somewhere) what …
-
(Quote) Agreed - There has to be limits and imho @VirMach exceeds those limits and repeats them. For me this started because of the ridiculous downtime without any updates or notifications. At least the other providers mentioned tend to provide upd…
-
(Quote) Agreed and I will be doing the same. (Image)
-
(Quote) Agreed - but.... how about bots, @virmach has not said anything or done anything (publicly) that I am aware of. Multiple nodes being down and no status updates for over a month is that reasonable? There are times when a provider needs a kick…
-
(Quote) That was a good side step.
-
Good luck with ATLZ005. AMSD018 - about 6 weeks down so far. Just another two days to my self declared virmach deadpool....... VIRMACH is not worth the risk
-
@VirMach POE and DGAF so LTGB and IIB
-
So what is the definition of deadpool ? Should we have a new term for virmach (as others don't accept deadpool) ? How about Left The Building (LTB) POE - Pisses off everyone DGAF - Doesn't Give A Fu.. IIB - Is in Bed Changed my profile pic and sig…
-
(Quote) Fair point - I can declare the state as I see it (and will) others can of course completely ignore me although everything I have said will explain why I believe it to be true.
-
Just because servers are running (for some) does not mean a provider is still around. A running server means potentially further renewals without doing any work, which pays for the services to continue (ponzi). @VirMach has some form with these ac…
