MinePort Networks and its background + future:
I work for X company (x being a variable). DimensionData came to use offering 85-90% off to test their services (heavily), essentially for us to become possible full-time clients (to virtualize all of our solutions). This $5 I implemented (and other fees for higher packages) was able to fill in that 10% gap that I had to pay. This project wasprojected to last 3-4 years in total. Unfortunately I received two separate emails within 24 hours. One being 3x of our VPS users (from MCForums) used their servers to spark a large outgoing DDoS attack. This attack took down most of the VMWare ESXI host which containing top level clients. The sales representative who communicated with our company was furious and suspended my account. I now have to deal with DimensionData to retrive files (and possibly reinstate the service), explaining to my company what exactly happened, and to refund everyone.
With that being said, if you would like a refund (I don't see why you wouldn't) please post below saying you would like one (then once you have posted open a NEW PM and send over your trans ID). I would like this process to be 100% public so we leave (or stay if reinstated) on good terms.
I would like to refund in this order:
- $5 users (Shared hosting)
- $5-19 users (Mostly discounted VPS users + extended shared hosting)
- $20-99 users (Mostly VPS users)
- $100+ users (only 3 fall in this category)
AT THIS TIME WE ARE ONLY SERVING: $5 users (it will be 24 hours before we go to the next level)
Regards,
Nate
PS:
- Once everything is resolved, you will receive a free 1GB RAM server with a different service for the trouble we have caused you
- There is still a 50% chance services will resume within 24 hours, I'm doing this only for legal purposes and to counter any "scam" accusation.
- We kindly ask for you to keep this thread 100% about refunds meaning only post once and that being the post requesting a refund.

[Updated] 6/4/13: If you still have yet to receive a refund, please open a dispute and escalate it to a PayPal claim as it will be a few days before the next bank transfer for refunds will be initiated. This will keep the process very organized and get your money back a.s.a.p.
On a second note, this thread will probably be locked. If I receive an email stating service is resumable, I will unlock but until then assume the worse and initiate the refund process.

Is the $50 USD max for 1GB, or for 16GB?
EDIT: If you can afford it, I highly recommend Provision Host. Great service and no downtime.
And, they're CANADIAN!

I try to blend in on my server as much as possible, so I can't really help you on standing out.

Just to note, a craftbukkit server uses about 300mb ram with one person on, so unless you're going vanilla, don't take the 256mb packages.

On my brand new new bukkit world, with only me on, 300mb of ram is being used.
(Okay, it had some plugins, but nothing major like orefuscator)

A: Super Necro
B: Wrong Section
C: You advertised your server on someone's thread.

Secondly, you'll have a difficult time playing alone on the server with 256mb of ram, assuming that you're using craftbukkit.
Lastly, you have next to nothing to offer the company other than shoutouts which would be considered spam, and all that will achieve is a bad reputation for the company.
No, he meant either megabytes or mebibytes, not metabytes.

Or you get one of those tiny free minecraft hosts or win a giveaway.
