@deanhills, are you the owner of this site? If yes, why the game servers are not allowed?

Because if the attraction of misuse and ddos attacks.
The vps is settled for advanced webhosting. Not for intensive apps.

Gigarocket offers users the opportunity to learn how to develop a nice website by offering webspace for couple good posts. Not for gaming as that is not the market they aim for.

No I'm not the owner of the site.  I have been helping for many years.

Further to what @perryoo11 said very correctly.  Games servers require different resources, as well as lots of protection and Admin support, which the owner decided right in the beginning - 2005 - was not his thing to provide - he likes more passive ownership where the business can look after itself.  It can never look after itself when games are involved.  His objective is very different too - he wants to help young entrepreneurs start their businesses with free quality hosting space.

I believe he is not alone in that though. If you look at the packages at post4vps you'll notice there are other hosts who also elected not to have games servers. For the very same reason.

I agree with this. There should be some sort of control in quality. It shouldn't go crazy like happened at freevps.us at it's ending days but how it's here and at Gigarocket are all fine. Most of us don't use English as our first language and Some have even harder time using it. But Like @deanhills said if they give a chance to those who really try, then I think it's a perfect system. When some try to spam their way to a vps, usually it means trouble. Plus I think it's fair asking for Higher quality set of posts for applying for a vps. Like longer posts and more topics than posts.

There aren't many places which off this kind of free services anymore. So there isn't much of choice either.

True. They don't allow games either on shared hosting or VPSs. It uses more resources and in particular requires more regular attendance of admin. Objective is more focused on new entrepreneurs who are doing start up businesses, or wanting to learn how to use a VPS.

Somehow, I lost your response in the shuffle. I'll go ahead and let them know and you might get some fresh blood over there. The couple of people I'm thinking of are highly technical and should make quality posts.

I don't really need a second VPS, or I'd consider joining and posting.

@KGIII

You might not need a vps now but you might need one in future. So it's worth do those quality posts slowly since you have all the time in the world. That way if you ever need one you don't have to rush through those posts. I have seen many new members doing it here. They want a server fast so try to do too many posts spending too little time.

Agreed with @xdude. Also thanks for recommending GigaRocket!
