License changes Feedback (10 to 2 servers)

But it's running and those NPLs were changed already.

His license was generated not renewed.

Well, I'll find out within 30 days when my NPL renews, I've trimming my live server down to two servers, but I still have my test server that uses the same NPL since they are on the same IP, for now. So, currently 3 v-servers in 2 instances on same IP with less than 512 slots. I've not asked for anything special related to my NPL, so it is likely I'll get restricted, unless they don't do it. One can hope they don't, then I can restore backup (not including NPL) from before trimming the server down.

[dante696]

As said, it already happened to NPLs that got renewed the last days.
NPL is NPL there are no exceptions (this happens automatically with all NPLs).

BTW, you guys should updated your website. The "Choose A License" page isn't up to date... it tells you in the lower left corner, that NPL enables you to have more than 2 servers with 512 slots. Which isn't possible with a new (renewed) NPL.

That image is fine. You just didn't understand it.

And what's this?

[addilind]

Not that I'm complaining, especially since this License worked fine for me since Dec 2009 (while still in public beta, registered on the first day it was possible IIRC) and the announcement previously escaped my notice (so I'm still running my 4 vServers), but I've received 10 vServer-Licenses twice since 4th June...:

That leaves me a bit at a loss - am I violating my NPL-Agreement right now? Do I need to move my different groups of friends to 2 vServers ASAP, before June 23rd or not at all?

[dante696]

Everything is correct with your license and all other NPLs.

The old system was used during winter holidays. This is all i can tell you guys.

[FVH-Bubka3]

It seems they are going thru the old registrations and manually deactivating/not allowing renewal of licenses with personal email addresses and no website data / IP lock.

These are the licenses that are under the v1 agreement (not the new one).

Are they?
My apologies to be so blunt, but where is the proof?
Perhaps they found you are violating the license...
My server is still running with that license. Renewed recently.

[numma_cway]

I'm planning to change my VPS in the next days, so if I really need to tell them that I do, I need to know that.

[dante696]

No they don't.

Only reasons that NPLs are not renewed are:
1. Abuse
2. Inactivity


numma_cway
Yes, please report that IP to avoid double trouble

Q: I am going to move servers and the IP address is going to change, what do I have to do?
A: You'll need to submit a ticket saying that you are going to switch servers and include the new server IP. Make sure you enter the email address associated with your existing NPL.

[numma_cway]

The last time I did that, they told me that they didn't want to know that.

[Barungar]

Yeah, last time I changed server it was the same... by NPL was issued before 2011 and so there was no IP-lock on the license when create and still was not at the time of server change in 2013.
