This company is a scam/ripoff, do NOT buy from them.
Reasons :
Extra Bandwidth: 2$ Per GB (Extremely high price per GB overage, the average for a hosting company is around 50 cents.)
Bandwidth/Month 200 GB (Extremely low for 50-100 people online at a time. You WILL go over.)
Starting to see something wrong with this picture?
| Quote: |
Full CMS Set Up
We will setup a CMS (Content management system) called FlareCMS V14 (Info) for you,
and we will also setup the registration page and we will connect your Databae to the CMS.
6.99$ - One Time Payment |
They are charging 7$ to set up a premade CMS. You only have to edit 3 lines in the config.php for it to work. It takes literally 2 minutes to set up, 5 minutes if you count downloading WAMP. PM me and I will set yours up for free... e_e
| Quote: | MapleStory Actual Private Server Set Up
We will install all the programs needed to run your private server (Including the repack) and will create your registration page.
17$ - One Time Payment |
Again they are price gouging. 17$ for about 10 minutes of work...
Now, lets compare their servers to the hosting company I use. http://Simplyintricate.net ( I am in no way affiliated with them except for being a satisfied customer. )
Maple-Hosting.com VPS:
Ram: 512 MB
Remote Desktop connections: 1
Hard drive space: 5 GB (Just installing the needed files to run your sever takes up almost 3 GB, not including the OS itself, you will most likely run out of space)
Bandwidth a month: 200 GB
Overage charge per GB: 2$
IP addresses: 1
Price per month: 30$
SimplyIntricate.net VPS:
Ram: 512
Remote Desktop connections: 2
Hard drive space: 40 GB
Bandwidth a month: Unmetered 10 MBPS Port (Your bandwidth isn't monitored so you cant be charged extra for going over)
Overage charge per month: You won't be charged for overages since bandwidth isn't monitored.
IP addresses: 2
Price per month: 54$
Now your thinking "Hmm, 54$ is a lot more then Maple-Hosting"
Well, picture this; You choose to buy a VPS from Maple-hosting.com. You start getting more players as your server gets more popular. By the end of the month you use lets say 220 GB not that much over right? Well you will be paying 40$ extra for those 20 GB you went over. This means you would have paid 70$ for that month. Maple-Hosting isn't so cheap now is it? Not to mention you get 4x the hard drive space, 2 IP's, 2 Remote Desktop connections, and unlimited bandwidth when you buy a VPS from simplyintricate.net.
You guys need to look at the long run, and not just say "Omg, its only 30$ for a server!!11!" because you will be paying a lot more then you bargined for in the end.
On a side note, Maple-Hosting.com is a RESELLER of VPSLand.com servers. This means their server IS a VPSLand.com server. Any problems you receive with VPSLand you will receive with Maple-Hosting.com, and you have to pay more to.

Edited my post to prove my point.
This isn't a scam in the seance of just taking your money. They do it by price gouging.
Please look a little closer next time before you start flaming.
Edit: Oh thanks for the de-rep to, I think I deserve that for warning people about this...

They collect installation fees from setting up people's pserver files.

And I thought x0r would forget what happend in the past and move on...
(1) I'm not the owner of that site, I simply work there.
(2) Have any of you seen a single Maple-Hosting customer that wasn't 100% satisfied? They have 900 customers at the moment, and all were satisfied about the servers, You forgot to remind everyone about the 10 Hardware & Software modifications in the Servers that makes it use less CPU & Ram...
Ask all of our customers one by one, if the Estimation of players wasn't accurate for them!
| Quote: | Extra Bandwidth: 2$ Per GB (Extremely high price per GB overage, the average for a hosting company is around 50 cents.)
|
You can't argue with a company's price list, no one forces you to buy extra bandwidth, this is the price the company decided to set for extra bandwidth and that's final!
| Quote: | | Bandwidth/Month 200 GB (Extremely low for 50-100 people online at a time. You WILL go over.) |
Not extremely low, because of the software & hardware I mentioned above, fact is everyone who bought this VPS plan was able to run even more then 100 players on their servers, FACT, not OPINION!
| Quote: | | They are charging 7$ to set up a premade CMS. You only have to edit 3 lines in the config.php for it to work. It takes literally 2 minutes to set up, 5 minutes if you count downloading WAMP. PM me and I will set yours up for free... e_e |
And if we would charge 0.20$ for it, Do you think our programmers will do it? We hire employees, Those employees get paid, as I said above, if you don't like the price, you don't have to get it, Show me another VPS hosting company that offers this special services... NONE offers these services, so what makes you assume this prices are too much?

Now your thinking "Hmm, 54$ is a lot more then Maple-Hosting" |
You've said it your self, not only the price diffrence is very big, but our servers would run better & smoother (this is my opinion) for a Maple PS BECAUSE of the 10 hardware & software Mods.

I've personally contacted Jainy, which is our Sales & Billing manager and this is her reply:
"Here at Maple-Hosting.com we have no reason to make it hard on our customers.
The last month we had 18 customers which experienced this problem, They've contacted us and received the needed amount of bandwidth free of charge for the month as part of an agreement in which they agreed to use our services the next month with an upgraded plan to prevent this issue from happening again!"
Our support is the most friendly & understanding support, for my OPINION.

That's an OPINION, You're stating it like it's a fact!
| Quote: | | On a side note, Maple-Hosting.com is a RESELLER of VPSLand.com servers. This means their server IS a VPSLand.com server. Any problems you receive with VPSLand you will receive with Maple-Hosting.com, and you have to pay more to. |
If you would take a few minutes to read what it says on the website, you wouldn't say that:
"
* MapleHosting installs more then 10 unique programs created by us, making your private server run three times as fast, using three times less RAM and making the Upload/Download Speed and the CPU Speed three times faster!
* MapleHosting Support Center receives less help requests per day and can answer faster.
* MapleHosting's prices are only a bit higher for better service, hardware & Software!
* MapleHosting supports both Virtual Private Server & Gaming Private Server problems & Needs, VPSLand only supports Virtual Private Server Problems.
"

No one is holding a gun to your head making you buy it, Look on other VPS, look at other prices, WE'RE OFFERING CHEAP QUALITY Private server solutions!
| Quote: | | Their services seem expensive Confused FlareCMS IS not even created by them and they want to collect installation fees Shocked |
Maple-Hosting.com never took credits for FlareCMS, and as you said, the fee is installation fee, we install FlareCMS for you, hooking it to the DB and everything, your sentence doesn't even make sense.
| Quote: | | good idea ima go report the site to nexon rofl. |
You go do that!
| Code: |
Quoted by x0r himself. Maybe now people will realize that this company is ripping people off. Thanks for the rep also. Wink |
Me and x0r has more then a few "misunderstanding" in the past, and he will never forget it, I guess, if someone else was posting this he wouldn't say a thing.
Thanks for reading.
And to prevent questions, my job on MapleHosting:
- Tech Support
- Registration Assistance
- Senior Personal Manager
- Advertising
