Server rentals :: NFOservers.com

Sorry NFo but but;...I dont like the pricing i have to save up money to buy a server i have one for the clan but i want one just for my self.I want a 20 person server but it cost $90.98 with some extra stuff.I arent made of money nor do i have a money tree in my backyard any chances that you guys might lower the cost of your servers i seen a server on a different company that you can buy a 20 person server for $40!!!!.

Our pricing is based on actual costs to us in terms of bandwidth, hardware, and support.

Some other companies charge less by cutting corners and using lower quality bandwidth and hardware, and by offering less support. It is also common for a company to start out with very low prices because the owner is new to the business and thinks that servers are cheaper to run than they are. Later, that company either has to raise its prices or go out of business, when the owner starts actually getting the bills and hearing lag complaints.

We have a wide variety of servers to choose from. I'm sure that anyone who is looking for quality servers can find one from us that is within his or her budget.

Cool thanks now i know why the pricing is slightly high.

True, they are a little high compared to some others.

But honestly, these are the best servers I've ever used. The latency is really amazing. I've never seen people with 8 ping before.

In my opinion, the pricing is definitely good for what you get.

don't you guys realize that when you get a server, you don't HAVE to buy the ping accelerator, the bandwidth is soo good, you only need to for 40slots or higher.

ya, have fun with that 20 slot server for $40 =/

my friend rented one of those types of servers. took 3 days for the server to be put up, the ip changed about 4 times, and the guys who ran the servers were never around.

you pay for what you get.

I have a 20 slot pub w/ ping accelerator for a better price than most people could get.

I get more than what I pay for.

ROFL HAHAHA. im srry but that is just funny. Well i happen to own a game server hosting company and i disagree..lol i started my company Because of hosts like u guys. For a 20 man i will charge You 40 bucks. For that i can give u 600fps{server side} on all HL1 servers.Thats stock btw. .. I would like all of u who own a server do this go into hlsw and type this stats then hit enter.. So u can see how ur server is performing. like here for exmaple here is one of my servers.

that server is full btw.

I am not tryin to say ur servers suck just saying you guys are a lil high.

I suspect that you will find, with time, that your prices are not sustainable. I also doubt that you are doing this on InterNAP bandwidth or with the same type of high-end hardware that we commonly use. (Quality bandwidth is just as important as high server-side FPS to overall performance.)

We were small once, too, and we've learned a lot since then. Our prices represent true costs to us, and have been proven sustainable.

We would also prefer to hear from customers or former customers in this forum, rather than from competitors. The tagline for the forum is "Had a bad experience with our servers? Flame us here."

oh really now.

Yes I am new.. But im not trying to make alot of money thou. want compare servers????

and btw... You are alot nicer than i thought you would be. I was expecting to get banned from forums lol... Wat panel do u guys use btw????

I would not consider ThePlanet bandwidth to be on-par with InterNAP, although it's certainly not the worst out there. I have not heard of ThePlanet engineers doing the type of manual route adjustments that InterNAP performs for our customers, and I am not aware of ThePlanet using the type of route optimizing software that InterNAP does, for instance.

Dual Opterons run HL1 servers much faster than dual Xeons. We discontinued the purchase of dual Xeons at the 2.8ghz level at least a year ago and have relatively few of them still in our inventory. Most of our machines right now are dual Opteron 244 or better, and a sizable chunk of those are dual-core Opteron 270 and above. (We also no longer buy servers with IDE hard drives or with less than 4 gigabytes of RAM, but those factors are not as important as processor type and speed for us.)

Ok I will not post anymore. And i was just going host to host compareing prices and specs. You guys and like 2 other are one of the few that was actualy taking game server hosting. seriously.gah im sleepy. I did not post my web site or anything. So i didn't think i was going to far. But ur forums ur rules good luck to you

im srry but how many server do u put on per machine? last post i promise this time lol..

Our control panel and automated systems (automated server creations, shutdowns, webhosting setup, file sync, etc) were created and polished in-house and are not used by any other company. We are very proud of these systems.

Our control panel was originally designed in 2002, although it has seen many upgrades since then, and will continue to see more.
