Before today, I thought this guy was just a self-host enthusiast, simply writing and sharing what he had built with netcup with a little AFF. His blog post was one of my favourites, and I even first heard netcup from him.
However, his behaviour this afternoon (yes its afternoon in China) is really disappointing. Selling VPS for such high price, breaking his promise (not selling it forever) on the forum and trying to cover what he was doing -- maybe he should also delete his account here.
I think the selling can't be a joke with his previous saying. It's just making excuses for what he has done.
