Heavily modded Minecraft server without lag, finally!
I had been using Bisect Hosting to host my modded Minecraft servers for the longest time, since a lot of modpacks have discount codes for that service and I figured it'd be worth a shot to save money--every single server I ran, no matter the modpack, lagged the moment you had 2 or more people online. I bought more RAM for each one and it made no difference; and even as I stripped away the heavier mods it would still often chug. After getting fed up with it on my third time using Bisect, I looked around for other options and saw someone recommend Oddblox on Reddit. Gave them a shot after looking into the alternatives, and I absolutely wish I went to Oddblox sooner. Their prices are just as good, if not cheaper, than Bisect, and I'm able to run a server with 200+ mods and 3-4 of my friends all at the same time with pretty minimal lag. Had a hiccup or two at the very beginning as I was getting used to their control panel, but their support is good and the server itself is fantastic. Highly recommend--until I switched to Oddblox, I thought all modded servers just HAD to lag. Not the case at all.
