Yes, you could do it cheaper. I could do it cheaper. You know why? Because neither of us care about making money at the end of the month. There's a difference between chucking some servers into an admin panel vs actually providing support, hosting a solid website, making sure everything runs perfect, etc. That shit costs time and money and I really think you're being narrow minded in ignoring this when I know for a fact that you're fully aware of it.

No, it won't have customer support and have staff online 24/7 to assist you with whatever it is you need assistance with, it won't come with a neat and functional control panel, and it won't sustain heavy ddos attacks. If you require those things, then yes, you have to pay for them (as clearly explained by evcz).

[...] No. I just replied to your post which made no sense.

[...] Mad?

Im thinking about a tragic server, heard they are cheap and good, any thoughts?

[...] Why is that exactly? I do not care if Hiperz sponsor me. However I can share my experience with Hiperz organization as I have had few issues occured and every single issue was sorted within the same day. For example when someone started ddosing servers (and still does afaik), quite a few people reported it to Evcz and he took care of it. The next day, my server was having no issues even after getting attacked. Usually every single organization takes at least 24 hours to reply and Evcz replies asap. Having latest maps, configs is a massive bonus especially if you are a lazy person and can't be arsed downloading FTP to install everything on your own. The panel to manage server is super simple to use and yet very effective (especially if you have no idea how rcon works, it is a massive bonus). /rant off

I don't even actually run a GSP

Thanks for the kind comments :) As for latency we know that it's hard to have a good latency to all the EU countries at the same time. Even Germany seems difficult to be "good" for everbody. For UK we generally see better results from Netherlands, for souther countries (PT, ES and so on) we see better results from France. We do our best to fix routing for whoever sends in a test ( https://www.hiperz.com/knowledgebase/17/Reporting-high-ping-or-latency-issues.html ) expecially for our NL location (that's the one we can "fix" in the fastest timeframe) I admit we generally see a low usage of that test, the more results we have, the better we can get :) The reason we have "multilocation" available is to let people use all our locations all the time based on the best choice for both teams.
