I know we're paying for the memory and disk resources thing but I was forced to go dedi for a 1% overuse of the limits... I am happy with my server and all, but I find it really very unfair to be so limited with it... I understand about the space limits, but why not give us at least some more bandwidth at an affordable rate? I highly doubt most of us would be looking to compete with surpass for clients.
I may be rambling here but I'm actually upset... you're the best host out there, and I'm sure you will have lots of very happy new customers because of the upgrade and I'm happy for you... but us, who have been around for years now and recommend you and are the most loyal to you, why forget about us?  |
Well, realistically, it is going to be a challenge for anyone to use up those resources on the shared servers due to the fact someone whom uses that much will must likely have high CPU usage. And, all plans are oversold. No, that isnt a bad thing, at least not with Surpass. Why? They upgrade their servers when usage gets higher and migrates users when activity seems to increase, thus they stand by their package specifications. But, generally, people will use 5% of their quotas most likely.
I understand how you feel, but a dedicated is still more worth it, even which the lower space/bandwidth limit. You have the full power of a console and full CPU/etc with no one but you (and your clients?) using the CPU/RAM/etc. This also generates faster and better performance.
Also, Kayla has mentioned (hinted) that thought the VPS and Dedicated are still the same, there are plans for a near future revamp.
