How about "offer reliable service with good uptimes"? After the recent
maintenance weekend it was stated that our services are not really
intended for the public (at least if they need them and don't just
experiment with them) and we are only about data. If that's still the
case, recommending the use of these services to the public doesn't seem
like a good idea.
