Line 18969: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "So... what had happened was..."
Line 20467: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Alright, so last Friday, ZionVPS deleted my VPS. The next day they send me an email saying that they're really understaffed since the covids, and that during a routine audit last month, they were advised to discontinue their US datacenter."
Line 20468: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "For some reason, they stated which date the audit happened, which was a month before."
Line 20470: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "They gave no notice during that month. No notice at all until the day after they deleted my VPS."
Line 20471: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Now.. um.. my e-mail server was on the same VPS, so for the whole weekend I was thinking.. hey, my spam filter finally started working."
Line 20474: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Eventually I figure out something was up with the e-mail server, and check the backup e-mail account and find out I have no more VPS."
Line 20475: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "I finally got a snapshot out of them, and am setting up a couple VPS on linode."
Line 20477: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "All hope is lost."
Line 20484: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "ZionVPS does, apparently."
Line 20489: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "I had been meaning to migrate away from them for a few years. All my other VPSs are on linode. But.. you know.. e-mail server."
Line 20490: [LNet]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Such a freaking pain to set up."

Glad to hear Tillmen is ok. Sorry to hear about the VPS.
