He resolved an issue with my relay and replied to my email 24.09.2018 within couple of hours when I wrote him. Didn't need to bother him since then.
Yes, since some days. I cancel my accounts and looking forward to other provider. greyponyit.com and XOA-Portal are offline. Two weeks ago my server in the USA gone offline, two day ago my server in Europe too. No reaction after two e-mails... Bye, Conrad! Olaf Am 02.10.2018 um 22:12 schrieb Dmitrii Tcvetkov:

Hey Olaf, Sorry to hear you’re switching providers. Greypony wants to make this matter right with you. Conrad likely has a lot of things to deal with on the business side of things. He’s the only one who can restore XOA and various DC Locations. I’ve asked him to follow up on your emails.

Ok, I know about his problem, but he want to be a business man. I am a customer. I am a human. i want to wait one week and give his "company" a chance to come back. Content of my mail was to get an payment info (contract) for hosting. What should i think? We have to distinguish between "make a Tor relay for fun" or business. I want to buy resources and expect it to run stable. Olaf Am 03.10.2018 um 00:49 schrieb Nathaniel Suchy:

Why don't we just wait for Conrad to report? It would be sad if Greypony is dead, but it's off-topic to comment about him personally.

Yes I would say so. Mentioning a few Tor nodes going offline is one thing, but by now half of this list is covered in total b/s drivel such as On Thu, 4 Oct 2018 14:22:59 -0400 Nathaniel Suchy <me@lunorian.is> wrote:

Yes to the sentiment. This list is not a platform for any provider. Can anyone imagine if even one or two other providers conducted themselves similarly on relays@? It's been stated politely before by teor, but much of the greypony discussion (positive and negative) has no place here. The term "drama queen" is not appropriate either though. It has sexist connotations. The irony is that the most over-sensitive person I know in the public light who does perform dramatically and irrationally happens to be the president of a certain country, and he identifies strongly as a male. g -- 34A6 0A1F F8EF B465 866F F0C5 5D92 1FD1 ECF6 1682

+1 First of all, we are not talking about an ISP in the real sense of the word. Is is OVH who is the ISP. This is a re-seller of an ISP, but this is not the point. The point is, with all due respect, this really has to stop. it has been so much noise about this, more than any CVE vulnerability we had. This is not what this mailing list is meant for. This is not Conrad Rockenhaus blog or support forums. If so much people on this list are interested in this topic these people should setup their own community, own mail list and own blogs / forums where they can talk about Greypony until the Earth as a planet becomes square. But it is off topic here. This statement could have been sent directly to their customers, not to everyone on the list. Would you like me to start sending every day emails about how I bought a provider independent prefix and contracted 2 upstream providers with BGP sessions and 4gbps bwidth? I done this to avoid being thrown over and over by hosters as I changed more than 5 in the last 2 years. I didn't notify anyone about it as I don't think anyone should care. For example the BGP session with my backup provider failed today for 45 minutes. Would you like to hear about it? I sent them an email. They fixed it. Hmmm. On the other side of things, I am really sorry about the health incident, which is of course sad, and I wish Conrad a fast recovery and best wishes for his health and his family.
We wouldn’t have to make these threads if community members like Isaac didn’t make threads about a lack of response from one team member. We could: A) Inform everyone B) Inform a few customers and hope we don’t miss any C) Ignore the problem and have more negative threads created about us. Whatever we do it turns out negative for someone. Cordially, Nathaniel Suchy On Thu, Oct 4, 2018 at 3:50 PM s7r <s7r@sky-ip.org> wrote:

I get how you'd feel that way, given that you've been part of the Tor community for quite some time. On the other hand, people create threads frequently about the fate of their relay(s) hosted by various firms. And, with few exceptions, I don't recall seeing replies here from those firms. In a few cases, operators have posted messages received from providers. But there have rarely been replies. Once or twice in the last few years, as I recall. I can't say that I really care. Traffic and storage are inexpensive these days, and it's easy to filter messages. So what's the harm?
