Where in that did I say that people will be put off? They won't be put off because they won't know, but we on this forum know. And yet again, it's not about phpVMS working. It's about the VA working. I don't give a s*** if it works or not, if you're not paying to run your VA then where else are you going to be slacking?
This is from experience by the way, I began with a free host and domain. You learn from your mistakes. Although it seems that isn't the case for a few on this forum.
And by CEOs not flying for their VA I assume you mean you're bringing up the argument about whether or not they need to. Their choice. If they want to then great, if they don't, why is it your problem? Besides, it's funny you should say that, I vaguely remember flying under my callsign just the other day...
