ShockwaveVPS/MyPCServer
Just thought I'd warn you lot about shockwavevps/mypcserver
It looks pretty shady, summer host maybe?

The Facebook feed appears to be the ramblings of an utter retard, but that aside, what makes you think they're shady. Share your dirt, so that others will not have to dig in the faeces in which you have already dug.
For a start, the owner can't even spell correctly or use proper grammar.
He's asking for a £6.80 donation to run the company, obviously doesn't have the money to run the company in the first place, which means the company will probably shut down in a month or so.
at the bottom of the page it says "Our Awesome Clients" which are stock pictures of people, couldn't he change it to display actual clients? (with permission of course) or just delete that entire section and replace it with something else.
The dedicated server page doesn't even work, not sure he even sells dedicated servers so I don't really see the point in having that page, but it's kinda obvious who ever runs that site has no idea how to use a computer properly.
I'm not even gonna start with the "blog" page, it pretty much explains it's self.
and under "Team" what the hell does "Technician support" even mean?
also, do they even have a tos/aup? am I just allowed to do anything I want on them?
The entire site looks like it's been made by a 10 year old so I wouldn't trust a host which is entirely funded by mummy, which will most likely shut down in a few months.
That's just my opinion, it could be around for a long time but I highly doubt that it if the founder needs to run a host off of donations.
also, 24/7 support right here, "Sorry, Nobody is Here right now please leave a email and we will get back to you shortly"
lol.
Best Site ... EVER! lol
Don't even ask how I got this,
another reason you shouldn't trust them,
and another thing, minimum wage is £50/week?
love the pic.
So to sum it up:
He ain't got money to run a company,
Claims to have hacked google(A multi-billion dollar corporation), yet he can't setup Xen(yeah man, real rocket science...).
Basically, also he somehow affords to pay staff £50/week but can't afford £6.80, I don't understand this one.
request topic close.
I think people want some answers rather than a locked thread.
insert popcorn gif here
Pro bribery right here!
i got lucky...... i got a discount upto 40%
I wonder how did he make 'new' servers. perhaps he bought a manufacturing facility too?
Is this a alt of GVH Jon?
To be fair, Jon doesn't claim to own >2 datacentres and >2500 servers. This kid is also only about 14 as well.
@hostnoob
I know i was trying to do a "funny".
// I FAILED
Are you sure this isn't April 1st?
Great well I do have vpes and they do work to be honest I gave some free ones and they're very good all my plans work I have 3 dedicated servers
Why make yourself appear as though you own 2 data centres on Facebook then?
and you mentioned that you got 2500 more servers?
In that case, give me a VPS and I'll post a review here :-)
not sure he knows the definition of "summer host"
He's actually 12 according to his facebook profile and plays club penguin.
also is it review your own company day or did I miss something?
This just makes me sad.
