deviant Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Alright I am looking for a host for my Mccodes game. I am currently developing it and I don't think my current host for my other websites will work since their Cron Jobs are limited to only a few times an hour. What hosting companies can you recommend for hosting a game like this that will offer the cron capabilities that is required? And yes I googled and looked at a lot of different hosts but I would like feedback from the community on who they have or have not had good experience with. Quote
Haunted Dawg Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Here: www.fasterhostz.com != good host www.byethost.com != good host Only ones i trust :D Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Or you could rid of the crons all together. It's surprisingly simple and you will wonder why on earth people use them. Quote
deviant Posted May 6, 2008 Author Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Nyna I was contemplating doing that. I haven't looked into just how I would go about doing it yet since I am still trying to find where I need fix all the security issues. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes www.fasterhostz.com != good host www.byethost.com != good host lol Killah, I could swear the != is the standard operator for not equals ;) Quote
Haunted Dawg Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes just make all the crons into one file. then make each one into actions. then per cron you just use curl http://www.game.com/cron_all.php?code=blah&act=daily curl http://www.game.com/cron_all.php?code=blah&act=minute curl http://www.game.com/cron_all.php?code=blah&act=hour curl http://www.game.com/cron_all.php?code=blah&act=5min Just go with a host that you know where to use crons. I would sugest the 2 i put up there they both support crons and have no problem with running them. Why get rid of them or put them on another server or what so ever? & nyna its just a little way.

deviant Posted May 6, 2008 Author Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes I understand Killah. The problem is my current host does not allow crons on the minute like Mccodes uses. I can do the 5 minutes ones, house and days. Quote
Haunted Dawg Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Like i said go with www.fasterhostz.com or byethost.com Quote
General Doom Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Im sure I posted a mySQL script that does the same job as cron's somwhere on these forums...i'll have a scout now. Quote
mdshare Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes most if not all hosts allow cronjobs, but if you are on a shared plan...good luck with 1 minute cronjobs, mccode can be changed with ease as some have proven to a almost no cronjob game. 1 min cronjobs will get you booted sooner or later from cheap shared hosting plans. about the 2 hosting companies mentioned ? sorry but I wouldn't trust a reseller of a reseller... not even talking of the name of the second one that can get sooner or later some legal issues.

Haunted Dawg Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes MD www.killah-city.com has been on byethost.com for more than 5 months. I have not been shut down not once for running crons on there server. Quote
Joel Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes I use http://www.OneXhost.com And its quite fast, Ive never had a problem either And I've been with them for 3/4 Months, Accept you would want a good Package, Because some off the packages have Crap Bandwidth :) Quote
Haunted Dawg Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Like i said www.byethost.com is your place. It has cheap hosting, it aint like these other fakers. These other people only use one server for all your accounts for example: www.netxservers.com uses: ns1.netxservers.com ns2.netxservers.com Clear hostia: ns1.clearhostia.com ns2.clearhostia.com Ok now bythost.com: It just dont use ns1.clearhostia.com it uses varias name servers for example im using sv5.byethost.org & sv5.byethost.com now you may see that both are sv5 but they both lead to different ip's. The point is... Byethost does not use plain and simple name servers & not just 2 they use i think over 20 name servers for there entire company. Byethost it self site runs on sv1.byethost.com & sv2.byethost.com they run there own sites on there, but us customers run on other name servers. Quote

Cronus Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Re: Hosting for Mccodes Killah, I'm wondering why you think what nameservers a host users matters at all? Even big companies use the same nameservers(theplanet uses ns1+ns2.theplanet.com, and I have a dedicated box with tons of sites) If you have the cash, use theplanet, they are relatively cheap, support is awesome, and they don't limit cron use.
