Overselling, and why i'm sick of it.

Good Question, I am not sure. We use hardware to manage and load balance our internet and it is the most accurate I have seen.

I maintain two datacenters, 330 West St, NY, NY and College Rd, Princeton, NJ.

I've seen bandwidth and never assumed it was inaccurate.

My personal Hosting Servers, I tend to believe are accurate. Especially with one customer pulling down over 75-80gb per day.

Yes this is the biggest problem. If these kinds of accounts were banned, hosting would be much more controlled and of higher quality.

Reputable hosts should keep a record of there uptime and response time, which i am going to set up. As bad hosts will have bad marks

yes, most huge oversellers crash becuase their cpu can't take anymore of them trying to cram 1000 sites + on a 600mz cpu. (over exageration but you get the point)
