Are you saying one can / can't spin up a free two-hour server more than once?

Let me quote the parent post:

Thanks for pointing out that I should be clearer.

Really what I was seeking is to clarify the ambiguity in the parent post's "yes but sometimes no" answer.

Presumably the creator has some limitation in mind such as one user can only spin up so many free 2-hour boxes per 24-hour period, 30-day period, etc. I don't think this was answered clearly as the current answer does not define any limitations which is presumably not reality or it would be abused.

Right now you can have one free server at any time. There is no daily limit currently.

We do not provide an API and automating server creation is a violation of our TOS and would be considered abuse.

When you need a server and can log in and fill out the form, you can create one :)
