Feel free to post your guess!

My new best friend?:confused:
LOL another CP....

Chris

I would also have to say a control panel.

maybe a place to find NOC's or DCs

Thats my guess..

we got dotster and its for domains so this is an educated guess.

And yeah, good luck with it.

<imcrazy>

A horribly designed tease page, I mean...It's a...It's a... OKAY, so it IS a horribly designed page...

But that's nothing new for Burst... C'mon guys, hire a designer! WE HAVE TO MAKE OUR LIVING!

---

But for the real guess, hmm, I'm just not good at guesses.

</imcrazy>

My guess is it is a new movie about the waky and wiley webhosting world featuring Bruce willis as (tough take no **** noc center owner), mark walberg as the retard hosting client whois constantly looking to save money by telling you that phil down the street owns a noc center and he can get cheaper bandwidth"guy", tim allen as (the script kiddy who is constantly breaking things on his server, and sarah michelle gellar as ( the vivacious hosting girl.)

knjhost LOL


:D

I am Phil... ahahahah :pimp:

Sounds good when is this movie out again! LOL

no further comments your honour!

Hint #1:

Nocster has NOTHING to do with the medical field. :-)

a new cottony soft type of toilet paper?

That was my guess too.

man not more vaporware!! pallezzee someone stop all this vaporware!!!!

Actually you are all wrong. Nocster is not a movie, nor a fertility drug, but it is a video game being put out by BurstNET. I will probably be sold on all the major platforms like Xbox, Game Cube, PS2. This is BurstNET's attempt to conquer the hosting industry by infusing the minds of the young about their services. Basically Nocster, is a game where a player launches as many DOS Attacks to every DC or NOC other that BurstNET's in a 60 second time frame. The more NOC's and DC's they bring down, the better the score. More points are given to bringing down the Larger DC's as well. In order for you to win and reach master status, you have to spoof the IP's and make them come from another DC, other than BurstNET's.

ROFLMAO!!! :)

I would say that it is there universal plan to conquer all competition. :rolleyes: Because they are acting like this :D when behind our backs there like :angry: :angry: :mad:

Hint #2:

Nocster IS NOT vaporware.

UR DRIVING ME NUTS :D

A redundant 7206VXR?

I know now what it is god I can't believe how dumb we are, burstnet has been bought out by phil

Goes crazy :eek:

<< A redundant 7206VXR? >>

We already have a 2nd 7206 VXR router for 2+ months now...

Actually we have a Cisco 12008 Router coming in next week to take over as our core router. We want to upgrade to handle additional carriers and multiple OC3 upgrades over the next 1-3 months.

Nocster has NOTHING to do with nuts.

Sean R.

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!

Nocster, Napster, Aimster?

Do I get a cookie yet? LOL :D

Maybe its an innovative soundcard for Linux servers. :dgrin:

Mabey its a new flavor of nix ??

Hint #4:

Nocster is NOT a video game.

Sean R.
BurstNET

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!

I think I'm missing something, what was the special offer?

The ultimate NOC...where we manage your server. Basically, collocation at a new level.

Second guess...new control panel

:o yawn!
*runs to cancel cpanel license.

:D
ok ...that's enough rambling

Nocster = No rest

NO - C - S - TER

(No Ciesta)

LMAO I like it :D

Seriously though it's another attempt at a CP.

Umm ummm ahh

Something related to file sharing
A control panel
Some sort of host search service
Something related to NOCs (me smart)
A new burst 'brand', with a different target market
A hosting company
Some sort of distributed hosting "solution"
Well... you said it's not vaporware. but is it steamware? :stickout
Some sort of job/employee search thing
A hosting portal
A name change for Burst
Something completely unrelated to web hosting

More tomorrow, because eventually I'll get it.... right? :cartman:

By the way, nice job at getting us all to bump this for you. ;)

[i]Originally posted by appletreats By the way, nice job at getting us all to bump this for you. ;)

I got to agree this ploy is starting to get on my nerves, just tell us what it is or shutup, I hate not knowing what is going on if I have to I will ask eric, I think I will if anyone know eric does.

I tired eric and he was gone the other guy I asked was a real ass and just hung up the phone. Not very nice burst, Well guy I gave it a shot and I still don't have an answer. SEAN,.... When I called tonight the gentleman who picked up the phone was a real ass I think maybe he needs to be fired .......................................................................................................... ;)

maybe that was sean u were talking to :laugh:

Maybe it is another noc? That BurstNET will use the new office who knows?

They are bringing in cheaper bandwidth (such as Cogent, Yipes, etc), and will be offering dedicated servers WITH Cpanel for $99-$129/month

If it's true, I want one already! :nuts:

That would be very interesting.

Hint #5:

Nocster is NOT a control panel.

Sean R.
BurstNET


The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!


PS - Update!!! Nocster's people called our people and said they should be arriving in less than two weeks!

Now I really am curious... I thought it would be a control panel... but now that it's def not...

Euhm... you are opening a new datacenter and will move to it in two weeks time, not guaranteeing uptime during transition ? (deja vu)

Hint #6:

Nocster is NOT a software product.

Sean R.
BurstNET

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!

Perhaps it's a support outsourcing service for BurstNet customers... :)

I think it does involve people.... :)

Is it remote reboot software? John, told me that was coming to...

Eh nocster is new soft drink product by BurstNET :)

have some nocster :beer:

Is it a new service? A new office? A new noc? New people? New buisness? Am I close at all? :D

Well, it can't be software, or "The Nocster are coming" would sound stupid.
Think Langoliers.

Think Langoliers. Well "The Nocster are coming" does sound strange.
Unless, of course, the grammar is a clue. :D

You don't know and your plan is to get an idea based on our guesses?

Hint #7: The arrival of the Nocster is dependant on traffic from Philadelphia PA to Scranton PA.
A traffic delay is not probable, as alternate routes are available besides the North-East extension of the PA Turnpike.

Sean R.
BurstNET

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!



<< You don't know and your plan is to get an idea based on our guesses? >>

Now that is a good guess :-)
heh

Well now it's obvious.

Illegal Mexican immigrant workers coming to work for you. They will be paid very little, lowering your prices to customers. You call them "Nocsters" because it sounds better than "Illegal Mexican immigrant workers".

Well since my first guess (the video game) was not correct then I'd like to venture out on a limb and guess again. I think that the nocsters are rats (vermin) that are inside the BurstNET NOC. Everytime one of the sysadmins sees one, he jumps on top of a chair and screams to Sean

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!


Sean is now going crazy because the rats just ate his lunch, and all that he hears in his head is

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!

Steven

The Nocster are coming! The Nocster are coming!

Definately a new species of Gremlins or Critters that are currently in Philadelphia (can anyone verify these reports?) and they're making their way to Scranton ...of course, depending on the traffic.

Gremlins that have been bred to serve web pages. They will be hard wired in at Scranton and have CPanel installed *ectally... :D

It's probably something silly like a car with "BURST.NET ™" painted on it.

A car, that'd be a letdown. :roleyes:

I'd be up for caffeinated drinks designed for people in the industry. Something hosting related, so that we can feel special. That's not going to happen though. :o

C'mon Sean, spill. :stickout
This had better be good. :knife:

A lame marketing attempt?

*snooze*

Hint #8: Just as more light being pushed thru the ozone layer affects global warming, so to does more light herald the coming of the Nocster.

Sean R.
BurstNET

For those about to Nocster, we salute you!


<< A lame marketing attempt? >>

It got you to read it, didn't it?
:laugh:

A solar powered datacenter? Cool... 50% uptime guaranteed, rising to 70% in summer when we get more hours of sunshine :D :D :D

An ozone layer repairing data center. The more hits your server gets, the more ozone layer is repaired.






What! I'd like to see you do better. :angry:

Light... makes me think fiberoptics... they have been saying that would be getting multiple OC3s for a while now... which relies on fiber and light.. :)

And I always thought that the ozone layer is what blocks UV radiation. (The green house effect is the primary cause of global warming).

and a waste of a domain name, bandwidth and an IP

It's a truck that will visit all of the datacenters in the Western Hemisphere, take pictures, and then post them on the Internet.

BTW, Does this really belong in the Special Offers forum?

This isn't an advertisement - it's a guessing game right now.

Just my opinion..

Cogent?

<< and a waste of a domain name, bandwidth and an IP >>


Someone is not very fun....


Sean R.
BurstNET

I would say they have accomplished their goals so far....and the longest positive Burst thread in history.

I, for one, must admit to being curious, and will await their announcement.

<Oh...my guess.....a lower price bandwidth / colo / and/or dedicated solution....much like PWebTech and NAC with their special program which excludes certain of their carriers>

Speaking of NOCSTER...when is NOCSOFT due out??

Is it someones software you've registered the domains for ;)
seriously tho if its more fibre well done on the expansion.

<< seriously tho if its more fibre well done on the expansion >>

We are getting more fiber....as well as OC3 upgrades & a new Cisco 12000 series router...but Nocster is something else entirely.


Sean R.
BurstNET

Farking bloody nart shlukers, nobody knows what it is. Let's pretend it's May, and you tell us what it is. Okay? Okay.

I agree :crying:

where's the announcement?

Personally at this point who really cares:confused:

well after a month of pointless, nonsense guesses it'd be nice to know what it really is, however boring

It would be nice to know. It's a bit past that week. Also, the nocster page took about 45 seconds to load. The burst.net domain isn't loading either.

Please Sean, put us out of our misery...

I know I know. It's the death of the Scranton Data Center :rolleyes:

I think I know what it is:;)
