Still got 2 unclaimed prizes left, @Leonn and @EHRA please send me a PM with your HetrixTools' account public key, found here: https://hetrix.tools/public-key
Cheers.
Hello @HBAndrei, if possible, I would like you to hand over the prize to @isaacl. I believe he will make better use of Professional Uptime Monitoring.
Thank you.
@CVPS_Chris lol?
I know, its been days. . . wait atleast until monday, office hours.
Hence lets prepare our pitch fork and torch when it needed, just in case.
Yes. The time isn't too bad. It's just that the time stated to us in tickets (see above) turns out to not really be correct.
I guess changes are coming, we just don't know when!
I'll pass the ChicagoVPS @CVPS_Chris on to the next eligible user.
Thanks for that FAT32 and congratulations to all of us!
If someone can make use of a CVPS 1GB Ram / 30GB SSD KVM for something charitable, noble, or just plain creative, let me know and I'll sign it over.
Received a PM from Nick, waiting for my new VPS.
As to ChicagoVPS, @Nick is handling those; I received a message that said to register on their site and then reply with the registered email.
Got mine, and somewhat set it up. Happy with my free server! Thank you @Nick !!
Came with Ubuntu 16.04 w/Lamp, reloaded to Centos7 minimal. This is the first host where I noticed there is a limit of free reloads of OS. It's at 30, so over the course of a year that's about a reload every two weeks. I don't suspect that would be an issue for most, but could be for some.

Updated nench after I installed bzip2:
Got it, thanks @Nick
received vps from chicagovps thank you @Nick
Hi everyone, sorry that I went silent there, I had surgery on June 20th and had some issues that kept me out most of last week. Congratulations to everyone that won a prize and hopefully you enjoy your ChicagoVPS experience. If you need anything please do not hesitate to message Nick or myself. Thanks!
Thanks @CVPS_Chris and @Nick for setting up my VPS.
I have got one too from CVPS
I am curious, are KVM from CVPS has Control Panel beside on client area?
So how we mount iso on it?
My applause to our top providers for 2019.
And thank you @FAT32, for hosting this poll.
@Hostmantis, can I still have the prize?
I may have some used for it.
Thanks..
Absolutely! Just send a PM and we will get you setup.
I'm sorry that I voted for you.
Sorry you feel that way, but we can't continue providing cheapskate rates to satisfy you and still manage to keep the lights on.
Well, that was your choice before marketing your sale as "recurring". It was your choice, you did it, you should stand the consequences, you choose not to, that's on you.
It's like you blame us for your price. We don't set your price, you do.
The revenue before the cPanel increase was extremely low but manageable. However, that is no longer the case, but yes, this is all our fault.
Of course it is, increase it as much as the cPanel increase and I'd be happy. You didn't answer this though and you won't. You increased it much more than needed for shared plans. Much more than cPanel did. You used this as an oppurtunity to raise prices and use cPanel as a cover. It's all your fault and even though the 18 dollar renewal is far less than the time it'll take for me to migrate everything out I'll still do it because of the shitty attutide of hiding behind cPanels increase.
For short: cPanels increase was 2.4 dollars per year for my account. You raised prices from like 3 to like 14 or something alike. Answer this once and for all, you always ignored the question in your thread.
The cPanel price increase made us take a hard, close look at our revenue and made us realize that we cannot continue to move forward if we continue with the this "race to the bottom" mentality by not charging a reasonable amount for the great services we provide.
We knew we were going to receive complaints regardless, so we took this cPanel price change as an opportunity to cover the loss caused by the cPanel price increase as well as correct our overall offering to stop losing money for the service we provide.
In the past 10 years, we've never raised our Linux hosting prices. In fact, we've done the opposite. We've continued to lower our prices and offer awesome promos, all while continuing to add more and more features. While these unsustainable promos were making some clients happy, it's simply not paying the bills and as a business we can't continue offering services to our clients if we're bankrupt.
I'll still migrate. I dislike companies lying abount recurring prices, but now at least you stop hiding behind the cover of cPanel and actually admitt to be using this as an oppurtunity to higher your prices, but you should have done that from the beginning, as the vast majority of the increase wasn't to cPanel, but to you, as in, the main reason for the increase was bad planning on your side and not cPanels price increase.
this is all our fault.
Yes in bloody deedy.
