“Picture a watering hole where tech enthusiasts gather, drawn by the irresistible allure of cheap virtual private servers and dedicated server providers. Here, providers and users coexist, but beneath this peaceful facade, the air is thick with tension and intrigue. This is no ordinary tech forum. This is a pulsating powerhouse of passionate debates and fiery exchanges where every exchange can turn into a battlefield…”
So begins a hilarious video shared on LowEndTalk today. Using a gravitas wildlife documentary narration, the video outlines (in rather purple prose) the story of @Calin and @FlorinMarian, which we’ve covered here before.
We often say that LowEndTalk is filled with “spirited discussion”, which is a euphemism I coined years ago to describe our particular blend of technical chatter, cut-throat deals, and downright drama. There are other hosting forums which are sonorously dull where people spam offers or dully reply to threads with brief replies designed to show off their signature.
Not on LET! We are lively!
The video is hilarious. Thanks, @WhiteRoseG!
