Offering Private vs. Public Slots (Cost)
#12
It's just a money maker, in over 3 years I've always been running the FPS boost and I've NEVER EVER seen it increase CPU usage by 1%!
That's why I always hate all those companies that increase the price for what they call a "boosted" server, there's nothing really boosted, it's just an internal timer limit set to a higher amount resulting in a higher FPS. It's a simple "Click-Run-Done" which doesn't cost them any money. Also their servers ARE all running the srcdsfpsboost.exe anyway else how would they be able to rent them out?

They set up a server on one of their boxes, the box is capable of 512FPS at least cause it has srcdsfpsboost running, now when someone orders a server 20slots they set it up with an fps_max 100 (because they didn't pay for "boosted)
next client wants a "boosted" server also 20 slots, that gets set up at the same box but with fps_max 600.

It's the exact same server, uses same resources etc etc. but they charge you for having 1 bloody rate set to a higher amount Smile

I can get real mad about people doing such things, it's just unfair. There have been companies that came to me, "don't say that, that's bullshit", all I say to them "Stop being a jerk an stop lying to your clients, I tell people the truth, I don't like people 'stealing' money from people in such a low way"
