Well I guess it's all fine as long as all three parties agree about it. But there is always personal preferences. There are sponsors who are not happy about free users use Windows Trials on their KVM servers, then there are sponsors who don't want anyone to run game servers on their servers. Then There are those who don't like free users earn anything at all from their servers.

It's a choice. We can always go for anther server or apply for sponsor who don't have a problem with it. Also it's sponsors right to decide what user can do and can't do in their servers.

Personally I don't believe there is no such thing as a free Server. Sponsor provide IPs and servers, Managements has to spend their time for keep everything run smoothly and then users has to advertise Sponsor and Forum plus making monthly quota of posts. So everyone here do some sort of investment regardless it's time or money.

So I do agree about earn money thing. So we call invest our time for this so why not earn few bucks if possible ? But the truth is in practical situations it doesn't work like that. If I have a big earner websites then I wouldn't use free vps for that. I would always use paid hosting. Personally I do that. Same goes if someone want to start a web hosting service with a free vps. How you can provide quick support when it take long for you to get support since there are 2 steps to get support ?
