No support by the author.

Not trying to advertise anything here, just always looking for good recommendations. I like to be somewhat diversified, but also I have a hard time finding certain types of configurations.

I have custom configured servers from ev1servers (large forums) and some smaller ones from servermatrix/ the planet (medium websites/database activity). I've been with ev1 for about 5 years and have been mostly happy, and theplanet/sm for about 2 years and am satisfied with the service, though I've had some problems with ignorant techs (haven't we all?)

My servers are mostly unmanaged. I'm wondering who everyone else uses and if they are managed or unmanaged, custom configured or standard, or co-located. Also: How long have you been with them and are you happy with them?

You do realize the idea of this forum is for admins who run large message boards, correct? Because you cannot run a large forum on shared hosting.

I got my first dedicated server about 2 months ago now from softlayer.com

I was a total mess starting out and their support guys rock, and helped me immensley and very promptly. Never really had downtime that wasnt caused by myself So i'd reccommend them :yesway:

I've been with liquid web for almost two years now and I'm sure glad I'm with them. Great service and support.

We use iweb. They manage 10 boxes for us. CDN$ = good price. Highly recommended service.

I have two dedicated boxes at cyberwurx.com. I've used them for four years and couldn't be happier.

Support is amazing and prices are decent.

we run a dedicated box at hardhathosting.

we're old communitech customers who left when communitech was bought by interland.com (now web.com). We jumped to hardhat as soon as we could, and have been happy ever since.

Not the most competitive pricing but great guys and easy to work with.
