hamster01 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? Yes, Decepti0n. Thanks for looking up on the old one, gangstersterrtiory.com As you would find my real domain isnt pointed to that. You will find me and egor from siko hosting isnt that close. And yes, sorry for having some knowledge of php. I'm not a php god, but i do infact know my stuff. the jfs account i only use for online testing, as i have a local linux comp to test it here. For the other hosting i have, they are very good ;) Anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamster01 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? lmost every code bit you post has typos or clear parse errors as well. Please show me an example please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decepti0n Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? How does that make a difference? You still used them, and if your other hosting is very good why not just use it for testing instead of making your site look tacky with a free host? I know you have some knowledge of php, im waiting to see anything where you're actually as good as you often claim to be and act. Show me something that doesn't take 6 mins or isn't taken off the net. Aside from lamely using my last.fm chart style, I don't have anything really against me except that I haven't really seen you back up claims that you make. But I can give you credit for spelling my name right for once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamster01 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? As you can think I would test it on that but infact i dont. why: Doesnt work with crons, has different mysql settings, diffrent file settings. And yea i changed my last style of last.fm, i had made my own but I figured that one looks better. Please tell me if i missed the copyright text ;) Yes see, I only saw it in detail now ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? the deal has nothing to do with it, the fact is if they get any users that will actually use all the space and band given to them they will lose money cause they will have to buy new servers all the time. though if they have alot of space and band doesn't mean their tech support is worth much.

Mambug Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? Heh, I just read through this topic, and as web host myself (We provide shared, reseller, and dedicated services... http://www.mambughost.com) I'd like to just say a few things... 1.) As Decepti0n has pointed out various times, if you see an offer that gives you hundreds of gigabytes of bandwidth for low, low prices they are overselling. You, as a game owner should never take these offers. Why? If your game is at least semi-popular, you will notice speeds daily slowing down with the amount of traffic, and the resources you'll be consuming on their over-populated servers which claim to provide more than physically possible for their prices. 2.) Just attempt to go with a host which oversells and use all the resources, I can guarantee you - you can't without noticing either: A - Performance dramatically declines B - The system won't allow it C - Your host will contact you with a 24 hour notice to leave their shared hosting and provide you with a dedicated server offer. 3.) Dedicated servers have nothing at all - and by at all i mean absolutely nothing to do with unique hits per day. Generally a website which generates unique hits in larger quantities will consume much more server usage, which adds to the performance problem on a shared server. You don't need a dedicated server if you have a "popular" website, just a solid, stable shared host who does not over-sell will work out fine for you. 4.) If you choose to get a dedicated server, understand this - which Decepti0n had pointed out earlier - they generally are unmanaged. OR you can pay much higher bucks for a server that is managed, or higher administrators to manage your server. Either route, it's generally more expensive that an unmanaged server. And if you have little or no Linux experience, I highly advised against getting an unmanaged server. 5.) Lunarpages (note, this is completely opinion biased) is becoming on the "well-known bad web host" directory. They are starting to advertise all over the place within their customer control panels, their service uptime has dropped lately, their little advertising schemes with resellers is just ridiculous. And lastly, time for me to advertise. :) I provide shared hosting as well, if you would like a quote or to setup a custom plan I would be able to accommodate you. Just some background information regarding our hosting... -All of our servers and services are watched by uptime monitors, service monitors -We have qualified staff onsite and offsite to fix any problems with the servers if they do occur -We are located at one of the highest rated facilities world-wide with over 8 simultaneous bandwidth connections (Including but not limited to: Level 3 networks, Cogent, AT&T) Thats all for now, and please keep this thread on-topic. I'd hate to report it for abuse and egotistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decepti0n Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? My host is slightly overselling a bit, but not to the extreme, I get 90gb bw for $12, but it's the only one I could find that was still within my price range and not totally retarded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster01 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? Mambug, How does your shared hosting work? Stand alone (If one fails all goes), or do you have backup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mambug Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? We do not backup our shared hosting. However, it is not standalone either. Our shared hosting provides multiple routes to different servers which each hosts individual users. As for failing, we've yet to experience a problem we could not handle in a timely manner and get our clients online again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdshare Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? I stick with LunarPages, all our sites are hosted by them and I never had any poblems, customer support has always answerd fast if I had a question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mambug Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Re: Good Hosts? Okay. I guess your shared hosting client base isnt that big yet? There goes another assumption. I won't release our information, however we have a fairly large client-base. However, part of your statement is true. We don't usually deal directly with shared clients, as most of our clients are resellers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
