Hello, I'm planning on starting an exit relay at instantservers [1]. They wrote me that they are OK with tor exit nodes, but you are supposed to answer abuse mails within 24h. Maybe anyone else already has some experience with instantservers? server4you also seems to be very cheap...so what

Hi Alexey-san, I'm running tor exit relay on VPS from amerinoc and they didn't seems to have problem with that. I mentioned that when I asked them to change abuse e-mail for ip-address and they were ok with that. However I would definitly recommend you to take look at this list:

I've got a few relays with PulseServers as well. I really like them. I've spoken to the owner Kyle quite a few times. I accepted that he is a reseller of OVH, reluctantly, because their abuse department are fuc... Nevermind. You could try opticservers.com, based in the UK. I have a few relays

I have an exit on Wedos since April and so far things have been well. I receive the usual abuse/hacking/nastiness complaint and respond politely within 72 hour. The only issue is on Atlas the exit doesn't yet have exit flag, but I am assuming this is down to bwauth issue etc etc. Will

I was sure I'm the only Tor-exit customer of PulseServers, it's nice to know I'm not alone. I agree Kyle is very friendly and responsive. I think I'm going to try opticservers.com as well, they look pretty cheap and if you're saying they're exit-friendly as well, it sounds like a great option.

Re: [tor-relays] More consensus weight problems

Actually I remembered a third relay having problems. On Friday last week my provider asked me to rate limit one of my relays because it was pumping a lot of data. (Unmetered does have its limits, and I fully appreciate how my provider handled it) I changed the RelayBandwidth from 100Mbit to

Re: [tor-relays] BWAUTH weightings too volatile. . .twitchy

A straightforward improvement to BWauth measurement crossed my mind. Seems likely part of the volatile, bipolar measurement issue is overfast feedback of weighting increases and the increased traffic that results. For example, a BWauth measures 8 MByte/sec of bandwidth day one and increases the
