Hi!
You know..I'm sick and tired of telling people not to do this. They do it anyway. Fine. Do what you want.
What just happened is inexcusable.
A brand-spanking new host had a really good deal on the first month.
Fine. I've already ended up with two joke vps reseller accounts this morning..so..I figured..this time I'll ask and make sure.
Solve the problem? Nope.
Me: Is this hosted on a vps or a real server?
Them: A real server
of course..nope. VPS optimized yet again. Now..get this..here's the logic behind the lie.
Me: Sigh. so. it's ok to lie to customers.
Him: What do you mean?
Me: I asked you point blank if this was hosted on a dedicated server or a vps.
Me: It is NOT on a dedicated server.
Him: We have our main shared/reseller account on a vps on our dedicated server.
Me: I've to tell you..that's one heck of a way to start a relationship.
Him: So yes, it is hosted on a TRUE Dedicated Server.
Me: But it is on a vps.
Me: No..no it's not. Goodbye.
Him: On OUR dedicated server.
Listen, folks. Someday...SOMEDAY...people are going to take a look at how really slow web servers vps's are...and this madness will end.
until then..unbelievable.
