I do however completely agree that *most* virtual hosting solutions are not appropriate for adult type sites, with the loads we require.
which is exactly why you shouldn't use a virtual account...1 asshole starts burning 111mbps sustained on a dual or even quad xeon & everyone elses downloads cap out at 50k, if you're lucky
