They've been in contact for several months inquiring about moving hosts, and only contacted me a few weeks ago with the go ahead with the move. I had time yesterday to take care of it.

Thank you for this information. Guess it was never about the pyramids @17_

I haven't spoken to Eli since August, all unrelated to transactions to databases.

My service usually goes on without an issue, mitigation mirror is extremely successful, but a bit pricey, and wasn't purchased for the point of hosting clan sites, they just ride the wave.

Unbreakable's database ended up in the hands of SV 1 week after you were given an opportunity to get ACP access.

Eh, I wouldn't say unparalleled, It sure is unique, but you could make more money selling your applications than limiting them to your host. I have a copy of all of them, and don't see a use in any of them outside of group mention. I might even release it publicly on iv site.

 

It was never about making money.

md5 user/pass 32char both times? Kinda pushing your luck on what you call "most secure", it's a pretty good setup, but could be improved for sure.

You cannot differentiate bcrypt hash from an md5 even when it is staring infront of you? I guess that's the reason why EOP forum passwords were "corrupted".

Oddly enough out of every clan site I've hosted, only 1 was infiltrated successfully, and I managed to gain FO as a client the same day. I dropped FO a year later with a few weeks notice, full backup provided, when I was moving 3000 miles away and was unclear if I would continue to be involved in the RS scene.

They wouldn't need to be infiltrated if you sold their DBs

I didn't come here to flame you @slushpuppeh but I've gotta shut you down on this one. My day trade is a sys admin, I don't need to host bulk sites for income. I clear more in a month than you will make in a year.

Unlike you, My goal is to provide affordable hosting for the pure community.

And here you are implying that I am doing this for money. My price point was never to generate any sizeable income. My current hosting setup requires 2 servers which both sets me back around $200 a month. Each clan I charge $15(with the exception of EOP and UB). My monthly taking is around $300-400 depending on who closes and whatnot. The net covers my time for maintaining the layer 7 filtering system. As long as my costs are covered, I am happy.

Never once have I messaged someone or posted an advertisement of my "hosting services" for sale, it's all word of mouth, it's been word of mouth since I started hosting clans 12 years ago. 15+ clan sites means dick when it's a bunch of XLLLLLPC's. I've hosted the majority of every big name in the clan world, main+pure+pvm. Site total means squat when your post total sum is 1/10th of who you are talking down @. Also the current number of RS sites is 7.

I control the biggest platform for clanning and I don't even advertise on sharkbrew.com..

You have quite the nerve to boast about the clans you price gouged in the past. Many years back, when SV was taking down sites, you were happily gouging clans for $30-50 a month. Why didn't you lower your costs so more clans can be protected?

Please regal us with the tales how almost every big name clan dropped you afterwards. Tell us what happened when you were hosting Fatality

Except for TLP, you have never gone out of the way to solve problems that clans needed fixing.

Look we get it, you are so r1ch and successful irl(lol), but please don't come on these forums acting like you got some sense of altruism.

Damn I legit hit a nerve with you slush, very sorry if I offended you by the way. Let me clear the air a bit more. If you feel like I'm annoying you, go ahead and ban me.

0 ask about ub, we've been over this.

??? then why are you here? it's not like you play rs? it's not like you are involved with clanning, why do you run SB if you have no respect for your clients. (the clans)

I'm well aware of bcrypt lmao, I was referring to the actual ACP htpasswd hashing. "super secure btw". I had no interest or need to break away from the IPB framework if the host is secure, that's an afterthought.

If I pop local then I can just curl outbound to a remote log. Your modifications aren't a solution.

What? I was talking about TLP, the only site I've hosted that got comped, once, due to pibb+howls getting SE'd. I've never had my boxes popped lmao.

Weird, I match your pricing for hosting and offer a higher uptime.

I assumed so, doesn't make sense why you would hold EOP back from switching to any host, including themslves, unless it was about some sort of income or control.

I'm glad you found a budget priced solution for your setup. I use these server for business, clan sites just ride the wave.

I've never charged more than $15-20/mo for site host itself, only time I charged more was when I was offering service at cost, for L7 protection.

They paid the invoices.

Name a clan that dropped me? I'm not the one that needs to list vouches lmao.

I've never had a clan terminate hosting, besides Fi, unless I was the one to do it for them. Funny enough I was referring kids to you while I was "MIA" doing other things.

See 2 above when CF dropped Fo due to L7 limitations, then again that was 5 years ago, a minute before you were in the game, sorry.

0 ask btw. I referred people to you in the years I wasn't actively hosting new clans, because you seemed like you cared.

Speaking about hitting a nerve, you are the one coming onto my site :P

I can put the same question back to you, but the reality is.. Sharkbrew has grown to a point where if I leave, I will be slapping 20 people in their faces.

Security comes in layers, you of all people should know that.

It is a mitigative solution incase of a breach. And I'd tread extremely carefully there. Plain texting user passwords is **never** a solution.

For all site related purposes migration, the person who pays me takes precedence. I only provide the DB to the person who paid me. No-one else.

A person who hosts 3 sites and still relies on Cloudflare L7 protection :rolleyes:. I got plenty of references of you charging more than $20 for hosting :P

It's at the bottom of the forums in the same section where I have a mundane list of hooks.

My $15 comes with L7 protection. I am not as mean as you by taking advantage of the desperate.

You see, a competent host doesn't need Cloudflare lol. Sorry.

 

Please don't dodge the question about Unbreakable Database incident. Only makes you look hella guilty.

@Insane Let me know when your community website will be up and running so we can all leave this place! thank you

Zero interest in creating a pool of cancer. I'd only ever be in it for the money, like slush, and you couldn't pay me enough to moderate it LOL.
