I tried it yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Very nice server you've invented.
Thank you! I appreciate that.

Thank you! Anyone can contribute these scripts. You can see the repository here: https://github.com/sporestack/node-profiles
README is incomplete, but I'm happy to give any feedback you like if this is something you want to try out.
I haven't had any ideas of things to write myself, but I'm working on porting more of my own infrastructure to SporeStack. For the most part, that's just go-beyond.org.
I use a slightly different method with launch.sporestack.com (open source) because there are some private files that need to be pushed up: https://github.com/sporestack/launch.sporestack.com/blob/master/deploy.sh
I think that game server and VPNs work out quite well for this. Things like Wordpress or services requiring that you keep state are more tricky and need more tooling. I am working on better ways to handle those down the road :-).
Do you have anything in mind that I could create a launch profile for?

Will definitely read it and have a look
I don't have yet any ideas but maybe in the future 
It's always good to know that there is a project like yours and that it is open source. As soon I have an idea I will let you know Would it be possible to add seedboxes/torrenting stuff like that? i think it would be very convenient for non heavy users to pay for like a day/hours.
I remember a site where you paid Bitcoin for them to act as a torrent proxy. They would fetch your torrent and then let you download over HTTPS. I can't find it anymore, but this is sort of similar: http://fuge.it/about
If it isn't used for illegal downloads and you don't go over the bandwidth limits (about 28GiB a day on the cheapest server), that's something I'm open to. But if I get abuse notices from obvious illegal activity, my only recourse will be to delete the server prematurely. Since you're paying in credit for the server, you'd be losing out a fair bit of time. I also don't want anything that would compromise SporeStack's reputation with the hosting company and might affect other users.
Does that seem reasonable?

Thank you all for your replies!
> do you support multi player games and if yes how many max in 1 server?
Yes, it's a Minecraft multiplayer server. I have not tested to see how many users it can handle, but my guess is in the 10-20 range on the 2GiB server I have it setup on. I created a Minecraft server with SporeStack, but no one ended up using it. Never got a good idea from that. You'd have to test and see, but if you find it's limited you can tune the configuration or build it out on a bigger server.

I saw that you offer VPN, Mincecraft and Tor Relay. Is there more to come?

How big of a service are you?
Doesn't matter.The fact that he is building really useful stuff which is worth paying for.I have been checking out his projects lately,must agree dude solves complex problems.As a programmer,it's impressive.

You are announcing a service yet with not much information.

that is cool. I will try it on tomorrow

I added a launch profile for Minecraft to SporeStack today. No account needed to spin up a server. Lasts for 1-28 days. Just vanilla, but if you spin it up via the SporeStack CLI you can SSH in and tailor it to your desires if you have the know-how.
Enjoy!
