At this point, everyone should have been provisioned. If you are considering a 32GB+ package and need a little discount, please don't hesitate to contact us as we can always agree on something.
When will your VPS be on your BoxBilling? If I was using PayPal to purchase could I use the send money feature as just purchasing through a set form requires you to have a credit card linked to your account which I do not have.
If you send over your email + what VPS package you would like, we can send you an invoice which is the same PayPal checkout as from an order form.
-snip- This new organized MinePort will allow us to be 100% free and give back to the community as originally intended by MinePort, but unfortunately some users (such as rugerty100) felt it was necessary to attack MinePort and try to take it down.
-snip-
No. That was NOT my intention. My intention was to verify the authenticity of this MinePort before moving my server there. I would hate to wake up one day to see my server gone, and I started having doubts after seeing "alittlebirdie" post. As I've told you in PM, I'm a pessimistic person by nature. However, I DO NOT want to attack you and shut you down. I merely wanted to confirm your words that this is legitimate. I love what you're doing for the community, but I can't believe it. It's not the way the world works from what I've experienced. That is why I've done what I've done, NOT because I want to attack you and shut you down.

Regardless of what actually happened, MinePort will be becoming 100% free within the next 1-2 weeks. I think there were better options on authenticating us rather than making a new account and attacking us there. I'm not directly accusing you of being the one who has attacked us on a spare account, but according to a certain Skype (as it seemed it was Skype) you were wondering things like "damn where the post go" in regard to earlier or quote on quote "I sort of reported them".
A far more professional response to this would be, hey DimensionCloud this is blah blah and I recently purchased a server from a guy using your services. I would like to verify that these servers are not compromised, because as you know there have been recent compromises of servers.
Such responses like these, companies take seriously and would investigate instantly versus having to make this a public affair. This was intended for the good of people, but it ended up being "this guy is a scam"
At this moment it doesn't really matter, once things officially clear up all servers will be kept and future servers will be free with upgradable options.
I have nothing against you, but I just would like to bring it to some attention.
Can't wait till you guys get a free 25565 port. I thought you can buy a port block? Anyways love what you are doing for the community, keep it up!
We can, but each server can only have one NAT (Network Address Translation) assignment which means each server whether a full blown node or a 1GB VPS would only be capable of 1 IP. We are in the midst of somehow bypassing this.
you should keep it at $5, free is too fishy and there'll be people getting one and never using again, whereas $5 is way better (it's nothing anyway!).
-snip-
I was called a scammer for it, so I lose both ways. Part of the fee was for keeping orders at a steady pace, instead of receiving 100 in an hour along with abuse control. I'll have to reconsider, I'm going to sleep on it.
In terms of the $5, correct you would need to send it to [email protected]

Oh damn! You thought that was me?!!? The only action that I've done was contact NTT communications through their support ticket, and go on OPSourcecloud to go talk on their live chat! I even have a chat transcript if you want it! Clearly Soiarn was your informant as he was the only one I talked to on Skype. He also convenient neglected to mention that I was speaking with employees of OPsourcecloud. For the "Damn, where'd the post go", I was looking for your screenshot that had the ID in it. I sent that information to OPSourcecloud so that they could investigate. For the "I sorta reported him", that meant submitting a ticket to the american NTT communication to verify that you actually work there.
I'd have the Skype convo posted too, but my Skype proxy isn't working at the moment. (The proxy is required for the things I deal with at MPGH)
EDIT: Got a new proxy, here it is. See what I said.
"A far more professional response to this would be, hey DimensionCloud this is blah blah and I recently purchased a server from a guy using your services. I would like to verify that these servers are not compromised, because as you know there have been recent compromises of servers."
That is almost exactly what I did, except I made the mistake of talking to Soiarn who likes twisting my words.
Oh, and in case you think I have epic photoshop skills, I can screenshare with you to show you all this and more. I was not alittlebirdie and I'm not even a member of hackforums. I'm more into the game hacking stuff, like minecraft. That's why I'm a member of MPGH and not hackforums.
Oh, and you know how you said it wasn't a direct accusation? It seemed pretty damn direct to me.
I also didn't blow this up into a "public affair" (discounting this series of posts.) I only talked to Soiarn and cxboy about my suspicions. In this thread, other than the beginning when it was practically expected to be questioned, I haven't said a bad word about this service.
I will give them a week, the service may sound rediculous but the testimonials, and the person mineport_nate is have show that he is making the community better. We'll see. I hope it's not a scam. I really want a server from them.
Yes, I believe the same, which is exactly what I contacted support at those companies in order to verify his authenticity.
Im thinking about buying one of those 4GB RAM VPS, but i was just wondering if there is any rules what we can use them for. I was thinking about a gmod server and webhosting.
From what he has told me in PM, you're free to do any legal thing you want with the server. Here's the Acceptable Use Policy.
No, I'm waiting for a follow-up email from OPSourceCloud. Shouldn't take that long. I was always suspicious of him. (I'm suspicious of almost everyone, and anything that seems too good to be true.)
Soiarn is not my informant, he came to me wondering if this was a scam (he wanted to buy a $240 server) and attached the Skype chat you had. Presumably seeing your name on the conversation, seeing you were the first to call us a scam.. it was safe to assume you were behind the postings of "these are compromised" and so forth.
I don't entirely blame you, it's our instinct to think the worse in something (I've done this many times). So if you weren't behind it I apologize.
Wait, so do you still kinda think it's me? And what's your opinion on the screen shots? Authentic? And when I said soiarn was your informant, I meant the one that provided you with those quotes. Through the screen shot of the convo I posted, you can now see what I said in context. I did not, and would not dream making another account to attack you. I wonder if the staff can compare our ips to see if it was me. (and check if it's a residential connect for both through MaxMind to show that it wasn't a vpn. Though he could be using a vpn. Meh.)
Is the free server contain 3gb ram? I am fine paying 3gb. As someone said earlier I suggest you keep the $5 one time fee because spammers will take advantage of that, wasting resources. If the free server you are offering is 3gb then thank you in advance, but if now I am fine paying that $5 to support your project
p.s. make a Skype account and we can communicate better and quicker
I think he is allowing 1gb servers to be free and 3gb paying ones. Personally, I think he should just keep it how it is where you have to pay for a server and let players have trial servers.
I agree on your last point, GET SKYPE! ;D
If you send over your email + what VPS package you would like, we can send you an invoice which is the same PayPal checkout as from an order form.
Yes, these have been obtained legally. We've been over this many times throughout this thread, but it has been removed.
I have not seen these. Thanks. These prices are a little fishy so I want to double check and make sure.

Most likely the end of next week.

Thanks. I wish I knew that beforehand. At least I have a copy of the Skype convo.
Any idea how he got the servers?
I believe that he got it legitimately from his company. Maybe it's unused servers or this is an advertising campaign?
From what he has told me in PM, you're free to do any legal thing you want with the server. Here's the Acceptable Use Policy.

I'll check later today, very busy at work today my apologies.
For sure I'll find that our for you by today
I'll give you a free server next week, hold the payment
Thanks mate
I think he is allowing 1gb servers to be free and 3gb paying ones. Personally, I think he should just keep it how it is where you have to pay for a server and let players have trial servers.
