Yes, because a website designed to steal scripts is going to clearly admit their intentions.

Not saying that's what it's designed for or what it's going to be used for, I'm just making a point.

I have mine up there as a backup/test server. No lag whatsoever. And if you just upload the .amx nothing THAT bad can happen.

At this point, we have one available in the USA and a few in Switzerland. There's also a small chance that we may get more location(s) soon.

Please note that, if your server disappears then we most likely have deleted your account. We only allow one server per IP range and will also delete servers created on proxies or temp-mails.
So you have, some left? Is it possible to get a server, located in Switzerland?, On your site, the Regisrtartions are still disabled..

I was always thinking about opening such a company just never had the time to do a website and have a control panel made and such. Had kind of the same idea no support, no help but instead of just randomly allowing every buddy to open a server, I review their applications and such. Maybe even speak to the scripter about his knowledge of scripting. I have the funds to have get at least one dedicated to hold a good 800 players completely fine.

Nobody has real reason to think I want to steal their gamemode when I run PR-RP and I clearly have no time to run any other server or care to run any other server besides that one. And if I really wanted a gamemode I would make it with Fresh simple as that. I don't trust nobody's scripting besides my own and his. People could think I want to sell it but when I am hated at all market communities for SA-MP because I hate the way they fuck over people, I think should be quite fine.

But yeah it seems quite legit.Should also even set up a donation system towards the place where people can help donate for the payments towards the dedicated server's. Clearly if your running a decent server you can get some type of money from special features or additions towards players. Even with only 20-30 players a day. It only costs about 65-70 USD a month to have a dedicated to run optimized gamemodes with a total of 800-1000 players online completely fine. But Bandwidth could be another story could add that price up a bit.

I also would love to help out with a dedicated but I really wonder what the control panel is based off if there's any CPU limit towards each server.

Servers/panels which haven't been logged into for five days will be removed to prevent server overload. I actually wanted to avoid public advertising, but we just had so many requests (maybe due to this thread?) that we ran out of resources and I disabled new requests for now.

tested it, slow FTP connection like hek, I would only advise to add amx files to prevent you from moaning as well using it as a test server for your script.

If you want to read a good review on them visit http://realcop228.com/ You will find a review on samp4free

It's not our fault if you don't know how to manage a server, our servers are unmanaged. If your account is suddenly gone, you either used a proxy to register, registered more than 2 servers or haven't logged in for 3 days.

Like SAMP4free, i also setup people free, full access servers.. but i dont just allow anyone. I like to think of it as a sponsorship, to help establish communities, and let them beta test if they dont have the resources.

Not everyone on this forum is stingy, and not everyone is a scam artist.
