Do you read ToS before purchasing? · General Discussion

Following this thread. Just got a "fair use warning" from my host, no numbers given. Asked support, got a link to the ToS. The ToS says "fair use determined at provider's discretion."

What do I even do with that? It's not information. It's a threat dressed as a contract.

Outage report: my 'redundant' setup wasn't · General Discussion

Redundancy prices only go up more. /24 will cost you a kidney, /32 of actual independence will cost you both.

You want real redundancy? Buy ASN. Buy PI space. Pay someone to care. No provider does.

I am filing ticket now

You will not. You will open the panel, see the "terminate service" button, hesitate, check this thread for encouragement, see someone posted something new, read it, forget why you opened the panel. I have done this. The ticket remains unfiled.
