Of course, there still is an advantage for the OC10 plan...OC10 comes with 10 GB for the primary acct while the regular reseller plans only have 5 GB.

P.S. It would be neat if that info was clear on the OC10 plan page

I hope that you do indeed do something similar for the OC plans. I (and apparently others) got excited about this until the bad news was handed down.

I, too, am a little perplexed by the decision not to spread the love to us OCers. I've never been anything but head over heels for Surpass and the way they do things from go, and I do realize I'm getting a mother of a discount with my OC-5 compared to a Silver Reseller account, but I still feel a little small with all this joy banging down upon the houses of those around me :>

Hey, what if you were to just unify the OC plans, charge the -5 price for the -10 space/bandwidth? The Tenners would I'm sure be thrilled to get a major discount, and we Fivers would surely soil ourselves with glee (simultaneously, even) at the competition-crushing resources now available to us in spades.

All right, to tell the truth, I'd much prefer removed's uncapping suggestion, and maybe throw in free automatable offsite backups of whatever we want, a handful of dedicated secure tunnels, caramel corn on tap and our own personal datacenters with cute little retractable DSDN plugs that we slam into the sides of our homes with a sound like the world's largest mercury switch being thrown, and multicoloured sparks/sprinkles.

This amazingly creative post really makes me think about all of this three times over and your thoughts have definitely been noted. I also hereby give you this impromptu award of Post of the Month.

This is a surprise and mostly a WOW! Great charity Kayla!

However, I am one of those OCers heh. Since you quadrippled all the shared and resellers, you could do the same for the OC plans, as it would (or should) have the same difference/contrast to the other plans as before.

Also, not sure about the VPS, but for Dedi, I'm sure they'll appreciate a raise back to the old 2,000GB monthly bandwidth, which for so reason I'm don't know about was changed to the current 1,200gb.

Just some suggestions/opinions. Either way, I'm still happy with the service and see this as extra charity to those who meet it
