If I am ignoring a user, at the moment all I see is 'Ignored user post', can it say 'user post ignored' where user is the actual user name? edit due to putting user inside < and > symbols.
-
(Quote) Newbies can 'see' what they are getting into on here as well. As far as the history of OGF and feelings about it, I agree with you however LES is not 'free' and certainly not the OGF. There are costs (excluding Ant's…
-
(Quote) Apologies if I am wrong, but didn't you register on OGF ? As far as newbies - there is a 'cost' to join (the ADs) and of course a way of stopping them.
-
Following on from @treesmokah comments - while I don't feel so negative about the ADs, I do understand the complaint. As LES allows people to use karma for 'purchasing' squares, why not let users purchase AD blocking with Karma?
-
(Quote) Yes - your change worked, it looks much better. I mentioned rounded corners - I think the problem is the "Buy this LES space" is rounded and everything else is square corners. Agreed any provider could use rounded which messes thin…
-
Currently (will likely change), I like seeing the adds as they are sometimes comical / entertaining or have a point. Having them interspersed with 'real' adds is good. I agree that double adds should be grouped and mixing singles and doubl…

(Quote) I have no idea what you are talking about - I suspect you are confusing me with someone else and I can assure you I do not bear grudges. However, no deflection (I am not clever or can be bothered with that crap). I did answer your question -…
-
(Quote) No - I also compliment where it is due - I genuinely try to be fair unlike your regular trash / dick comments which I find irritating. However again your comment highlights why @AnthonySmith is doing the right thing by introducing +/- Karma…
-
(Quote) That is the exact reason why there should be downvotes without recrimination / visibility. You can call it 'woke' or whatever but being polite is something I value so I would downvote those sorts or comments (btw I did not). Howeve…

Problem resolved and all users back online :) Thanks for everyone's patience during the upstream issue. Mike
-
Wow - that was quite a read.... Best of luck with your results, I have been through a traumatic health issue so know how draining it can be. <3 Genuinely appreciate your extremely generous suggestion @AnthonySmith for FOSSVPS, but I would be mu…
-
@DP - very fair points. I think the key point is 'LES exclusives' - This is a big reason to be a member. As far as participating I agree with both you and @somik, there is no way you can force participation other than by getting the user t…
-
(Quote) Everyone can browse and look at discussions without joining already. It is simply 'joining' should mean I want to participate. (Quote) If someone is looking for deals they can still find them here (assuming the providers don'…
-
Newbies that register and do not participate are a waste of everyone's time. If someone wants to join they must participate - this is a forum not a one way street. Posting in their own intro message should be mandatory. Re 'policing'…
-
(Quote) Ahh - I am using 'light' and have no way (that I can see) of looking at a category unlike the vBulletin style.
-
Have I missed something ? We have many different categories for posts but no easy way of selecting them. How about (for those that dont want to see newbie posts) allow a drop down with select all or deselect what you don't want to see etc.
-
(Quote) Yes I try and keep FOSSVPS and personal use separate. Still have a 'freebie' which regularly has an ip 'issue' kba to push for a fix. To be fair a couple of VMs are at 250 days uptime.....
-
While I dislike AI, I feel like virmach is using it for support ticket response and instead should be using it to fix the problems. It would be a lot faster at fixes and reduce Soheil's workload considerably. Would be a lot better than the curr…
-
(Quote) and yet you said it !!! Anthony has worked really hard for the benefit of the community and deserves many thanks and support. He admits it is not perfect, he knows what people dislike and he is working to fix the problems. All of that for no…
-
(Quote) > I won't miss it as it is really for 'hot' news or idle chat. Will have to be careful about spamming, but should be a good introductory area for newbies. So +1 from me. Will also be fun to 'hear' the insults you …
-
(Quote) Perhaps I did not explain clearly - apologies. I mean add 'Free' here (Image) Then users can select Free in 'Registered Providers'. Certainly I would not expect you to treat a free provider any differently to a normal p…
-
Just a couple of minor issues Paste from clipboard failed so had to use a url. (Image) The full name is not viewable. Love the Registered providers - but for FOSSVPS we really need a 'Free' tag / option please. Finally thank you Ant - …
-
(Quote) And it is not the first time you have 'said what you think'. Is there something you have against FOSSVPS ? Looking at your comments on LES they appear to be nothing or insulting.
-
@mizzik Well thanks for that - I am someone trying to help others. I am not paid and genuine users get a free 2c 4G 64G vps. All I ask for is thanks and all you are doing is being negative. So look at yourself first before being so unhelpful. As fa…
-
(Quote) Without giving an example, your comment is useless. The rules are there because of abuse. If I could automatically detect who is going to be an abuser, everyone could have a free VPS (that develops Open Source). @Xmelkov Please read the rul…
-
Sorry - I don't understand 'Upvote this post to reveal its contents' - so we are voting for something we can't see ?
-
@Xmelkov Sorry you do not qualify for the reasons already mentioned by @FrankZ (thanks). Mike
-
@AnthonySmith - you are of course correct in needing money to grow. I remember being told that generally a techie is always trying to rebuild something e.g. improve / optimise a script etc. It is afterall how we really learn. I was also told someth…
-
(Quote) I am confused why 'scrap' - what is your actual long term goal - I thought it was to make LES grow?
-
@AnthonySmith It is too hot in the UK and I feel your frustration - damned if you do and damned if you don't (re ads). My advice just chill - no one (I believe) is pressurising you. You have put an enormous UNPAID amount of effort into this co…
-
(Quote) Thanks for thinking about us Anthony - so what will happen with the current 'thanks' will these magically be converted into karma points or will everyone start with 0. As far as pulsating icons - no thanks. As far as temperature b…

@spiritlhl From what I can tell the token is only available for admin level control - docs here.
-
@spiritlhl At the moment - I have not received a request but will be happy to process when you apply. Currently only 24.04 is available. I have been doing a lot of work recently integrating 'convoy panel' into FOSSVPS build system and whe…
-
I am sorry to hear your news Andy. All I would say is don't give up on the community. Of course you need to concentrate on your business side, but doing things for the community / Open Source can also prove beneficial. I run FOSSVPS with absolu…
-
@nullnothere Will get back to you unless someone else replies before me.
-
@rpqu I am hopefully introducing a new frontend which shows b/w usage plus max allowed. I don't want to encourage over usage or limit client functionality - I know - don't show it, but I would rather everything is clear and open. There is …
-
Excellent feedback - thanks everyone. So perhaps something like 40GB / month with a 20GB bimonthly auto boost if a client goes over. So I scale based on an average of 50GB per client per month.
-
(Quote) +1 and UK users can see them.

@VirMach Received two emails (for two vps) giving new IPs originally on AMSD018. One Ticket ID shows originally 2 v4 IPs and now only one is allocated (Ticket ID: 163985). Interesting that there are 3 v6 addresses? Just wanted to flag before you get…
-
Wow - lots of IPs !!! id=722166 AMSD018 > AMSD035 now has 12 ipv4 (sbe 4) . None appear to be working and are in the 'old' ip range i.e. 88.214.21.x id=722545 AMSD018 > AMSD027 moved with 4 new working IPs (should only be 2) plus old…
