I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well. But it was interesting! Look for some my links:

I just wanted to find out about the promo codes. I am about to sign up for the DreamHost L1 yearly plan and would like to know which code I should use to make us both better off. Thanks for the information. Much appreciated.

Like the other thankful posters, I’ll be using the dream90. The “OMG I HAX0R3D TEH DREEMHOST” posts on Digg were almost too much to bear. Then again, I guess like everybody complimented you on your honesty… it’s your honesty that dishonestly got my honest money.

Aaah.

I’ll just go away now while my head explodes.

Hey man thanks alot for the time you spent on this page educating people. Since you are a business man who was upfront about it, I thouhgt it was only appliciable to use the dream90 code to throw a little bit back at you. Enjoy and thanks for the wealth of information.

This just saved us the trouble of having to skimp to pay for what is already awesome hosting. Enjoy the 7$!

Ditto to what John said - 3 and 1/2 cups of coffee coming your way :)

Fair play to you Tom - $7 on the way and thanks for being up front about everything - hopefully people appreciate and it’s working in your favour in the long run.

Where’s the lengthy explaination of the heart-wrenching decision to embed Google AdSense?

LOL - just kidding.

I just signed up using the DEAL90 promo code. I hope you’re enjoying your $7 as much as I’m enjoying my $90. (That, by the way, is the difference between “your” and “you’re”, for any curious commentators.)

I can’t believe I was mere seconds away from paying an extra $90, when the idea of googling for a promo code popped into my head. I found tons of them, of course, but there was something kind of sketchy or sleazy about a lot of them, and I was pretty suspicious.

Then I came across this blog entry. Honesty for teh win!!1! So I decided to use the DEAL90 instead of the MAX97. Your candor is worth $7 to me.

I just want to thank you for putting up the dreamhost code. I researched hosts for a few days, then focussed on dreamhost deals. After a little searching with google looking for a really good offer I found your site and deal.

Your openness with what you were getting/ offering was what finally made me decide to go with your code. So if anyone is considering a hosting deal and are tossing up using this code, then I highly recommend that you go ahead. I have found the hosting brilliant so far with the package exceeding everything I was after. I will eventually have a similar deal myself, but for now I think this code, blog and author are worth the couple of dollars sent his way

cheers

Maybe you could blog on how to spell “your” correctly. I know I’d tune into that. Or maybe just remind people that the comment preview should actually be re-read.

When you have an asset (well-trafficked website) you have to leverage it–sometimes. I think you’re openness about that and obvious attention to quality still shows you are getting more out of this website than $$. That makes this decision very inoffensive, at least to me.
