What the hell? I just got this from one of my masternodes on Vultr:

Sorry, NOW YOU FUCKED UP
set limitation for connections
configure a firewall and set 2 ruls
open dash used ports
close all port
I did all that! The crappy thing is I can't log in, since it's suspended, so I can't even try to check the debug.log or anything. Nor can I see my usage graph.
Qwizzie: 1000 GB per month. I've been running MNs for almost two years now with zero problems...it's really bizarre. Plus Vultr basically accuses me of launching an attack? WTF?
Write to them and tell them what you're running, and ask them to reopen your server. They simply profiled you, and are mistaken. If you are not running a tor exit node, and just running a masternode, that does NOT violate their terms of service as far as I can see reading it here.
Possibly hacked and used for a bot net or spam?
