  Don't tell me I just missed new stock! I checked DoesBuyVMHaveStock and stock is available on the 512MB and up OpenVZ plans. Either all the 128MB plans have been snagged or there weren't any. Either way, arghhh!!!! I do have the IPXCore and I got one of Reliable Hosting's 512MB plans in Baltimore, but neither is ideal. How did I miss this?

  Yeah, I asked about some policies and I got that vibe :P

  That makes sense but you have to find a reasonable middleground :P

  There was a couple.

  We aren't trying to be snobby, sorry. Alas, because we get a lot of people wanting to signup, abuse can also be a really big issue (usually spam or skiddies wanting protection for their booters).

  Aldryic has to lay down the law to keep things in order. If you provide correct details (or you provide proof that your completely wacky details are 100% accurate), then your order will get through without much issue.

  Given the size of our company, we literally get a couple spam complaints a month and that's entirely because Aldryic's policies keep things clean.

  He's always improving them and seeing how he can make things more painless for the user. At this point you have to be giving some pretty terrible details to get flagged, like:

  Street: China
  City: China
  Province: China
  Country: China

  Yes, this happens more than I'd care to count.

  Yeah, I was told that no matter what the paypal name must match the account name. That saddens me as I do use a shared paypal due to the fact I don't have a CC.

  You could ask the person to sign up if you are still after service.

  Ok, I understand why you have your policy and I respect that :P
  I may look into it soon. (Your 128M yearly KVM looks very interesting)
