Hello,

It appears there is a lot of confusion as to how we sell our servers at such a low rate. May I add, we do not resell from OVH, we resell from a company called DestinWeb. We have a very good deal with them which entitles us to sell servers at a low rate and still keep ourselves afloat. We do not oversell resources, we just feel that people are using and abusing the fact minecraft is one of the largest hosting markets out there, and feel its unacceptable and unethical to over charge for servers.

We tried to create a solution that would allow anyone to afford a minecraft server and play on it / build on it with their friends and others, but it appears people have taken this completely the wrong way. We are not trying to make masses of money we are trying to make a solution for the people out there that can't afford or do not want to pay huge amounts for a simple server.

It is not uncommon to be skeptical about the prices we offer. We can see why it may seem weird that we can offer such low prices, but we have an amazing deal with our hosts which allow for this. I hope that this clears the air slightly and gives a better understanding of our pricing structure.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Honestly, I don't like spoiling other peoples post but I would like to share my opinion.
First, you must have secured your multicraft installation before you've gone live. As someone already mentioned in a previous page, /protected directory was visible to the public and I could access it even after 3 hours of their post. Let me make you clear(in case you think so), installing a SSL certificate has nothing to do with it...you must set the permissions right first.
Second, your multicraft panel IS hosted at OVH. Using OVH is not a sin(I've used it, not that bad) but lying that you aren't is.
Your website is clearly just a mirroring of this wordpress template : http://themedesigner.in/demo/hosting-press/ you just mirrored this template using
"HTTrack Website Copier" and didn't paid them for their premium template.

Wow, good detective work :tup: How do you know he's not overselling and do you support me in saying that he resells OVH?
I did not say they do not oversell, in fact it is impossible for them to sustain their services even if they oversell to an acceptable extent. I support you 100% that they resell OVH unless they give any further acceptable explanation.

Ah.. Typo fixed. I meant to say "let's consider this guy is not reselling" and proof that he does, but I typed overselling :D . Anyway, he said in a earlier post that he does resell(that I didn't see), I removed that line.
Thanks

Well, he is using OVH for servers too!
For your question if they host daemon + panel on the same server, they replied with this :
Yes we do. it makes it easier if we have any issues.
The panel located at http://91.121.176.12, a quick whois search reveals that it is hosted at OVH, so is the daemon and hence will be the servers.
And I didn't knew configuring SSL will cause this amount of downtime :p

Leave him alone now, stop it he's fixing everything now just stop giving him a hard time and people learn from mistakes.[DOUBLEPOST=1459089842][/DOUBLEPOST]
Just be quiet, you are in a potential scammers list as you tried scamming someone out of $200..
I'll stop posting in this thread to make sure I'm not disturbing him. But I can't agree with this point. What if he's a scammer(which he is not till now unless the case is proved) ? His posts here have nothing to do with scamming and he has proof of what he is saying here is true.

On your site, if you click on any other 'buy now' link other than the minecraft hosting page, it redirects you to this "DestinWeb". May you explain why the ping traces back to OVH?
Okay, so the server we run the website is on the same server Destin run theirs on, and they use OVH as they have a 6 month lease (as of when they started). Since then, Destin have acquired a datacenter on which they sell their servers. So once the 6 months is up (April 2016) - they will move to one of their new server and so will we. Just because we host our site on the server doesn't mean we use OVH to resell. Plus, it's only 2 weeks left. Then we get a gleaming new one.
