CreeperHostSucks
December 27th, 2012
I’ve not used many Minecraft Hosts, and CreeperHost seemed pretty straightforward. Though the user interface was quite laggy at times, for the most part the server was stable and I got what I paid for.
The issue came this holiday season when my account went a few days past due. Specifically it came due on December 21st. I was away on holiday and forgot to pay it, and when I came back today to pay it (December 27th) only a week after it was past due, I found out that CreeperHost had deleted ALL OF MY WORLD FILES. They didn’t even bother to back them up, they just deleted them completely.
When I asked them how they could do such a thing to a customer with a premiere account paying $150 a month for the server, they were completely rude to me, issuing numerous insults and basically telling me it’s not their fault and I’m a moron for not reading the contract. Even if all of that was true, it was one of the worst examples of customer service I’ve ever experienced. And now I have 10+ friends who are crushed that the World they worked for months to create is gone because CreeperHost apparently cares nothing about their customers.
I won’t be using them again and strongly suggest you choose a different host.

Overview
I switched to CreeperHost from RedstoneHost, due to the fact that my server was lagging, with 20 plugins, 5 players, and a 2000 world.(I had the diamond tier with 2GB RAM) Even though RH was cheaper, their servers had no power behind them what so ever. As soon as i switched to CH, I noticed a huge difference. I do not like my TPS to drop below 19, because i always offer a lag-free environment for the players on my server. I am currently on the 4GB plan, and am running 35 Plugins, 3000 world, and a player cap of 60. I have never had many players on my server (max of 15) so I don’t know how it will handle lots of players.
Control Panel
The Control Panel is amazing, better than McMyAdmin by far, except there is no mobile support yet. When you first log into it, you see your server’s specs (How much RAM you are using, Processor percentage, disk usage, etc) You can navigate to the console, install custom software in one click, back-up manager, change plugin configs, add/remove plugins, and so much more.
Support
Support is SUPER fast, normally about 15-20 minutes when you first send in a ticket. When you reply to one, they normally reply in 1-7 minutes. They are always very helpful, but if you go out of your support package, they will charge 6 Pounds (Don’t have the symbol on my keyboard) per half hour (It might by hour but i’m not 100% sure) Paul is my favorite on the team, he is always the most helpful. Sometimes, he even helps me with stuff not in my support package like helping write some PHP code. (It’s really simple, but i don’t know PHP)
Performance
RAM: Remember, these are VPS, which mean you have to run the OS, and other programs you are running on it, along with the Minecraft server. They all take up some ram, so you are not buying a 4GB Minecraft server if you get the Skeleton Tier.
CPU: Depending on what tier you get, you get a certain number of cores. Each core is 1.5 Ghz, which is plenty to run a server.
HDD: You will never run out, unless you have a huge world and a high-res map of it using DynMap.
Up Time: My server has never gone down because of CreeperHost. Only time it did was when my IP stopped working when GoDaddy got hacked.

A testimonial to Creeper Host:
I must say that creeper host provide most excellent services, redstone host have terrible up times and their support barely speaks english, Multiplay offer innovative solutions to things but their support takes up to a week to reply and their priced on Minecraft servers are at an all time high compared to their other servers and other companies.
This is the point in which I found Creeper Host, it had a trial package so I could try it out before I bought it unlike so many other providers, and it was very good, accurate & stable; the control panel is straight to the point but also flexible enough to allow you to do whatever it is you want to do and as their service offers yo ua full VPS you can host other games on it too, do anything you like! Even host websites run a mumble server and even use MySQL – which all also links fully into their custom made control panel.
Their packages offer much greater value for money and are far more reasonable, the control panel is very responsive and the staff so active that they have answered all of my support tickets within 15-20 minutes which I must say is astounding as they do it every single day no matter what the times is.
I just can’t pin point a flaw because if you want to use RAM Disks or anything backups its all there in their control panel just one click away and it is all yours, so get your Creeper Host service today! Stop missing out on top value deals and begin to save so you can play for much longer with your player base and have a much better play experience knowing that you are in safe hands with Creeper Host!
