I am already on it.. I got all this webspace with unlimited bandwidth, I might as well put it to good use..  Files should be up by Wed.


Unlimited bandwidth is never unlimited.  Just be careful.  A lot of "Unlimited Transfer" hosting sites would shut your site down if it transfered as much as mine.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

I Once, long time ago, got kicked off my ISP for over use, they did this without any warning, The internet package was called "BT Anytime" but when questioned about banning people for extended use, BT said that it was called "BT anytime, because you could log on anytime" They had it in their Terms and Conditions that they would turn your internet off without warning you, they soon changed this rule when the national papers started writting about this problem.

Hey...  You could allways write a CGI script using PERL which monitored the number of times the download was successful and place a cap ammount on it per day... or a PERL script that would limit the transaction of the downloads section to so many MB/GB per day.



My ISP says I can transfer up to 3 GB per month.... but I don't think I want to put any files up to challenge that just yet :-p

Sounds a lot, but it's really not.

Since I've been with my ISP since it was first started, my contract doesn't have a bandwidth limit. They also are only able to cut service off if any terms mentioned on the contract are violated..

Needless to say, their contracts are much different now.

I was with my ISP from it 1st started to the date the cought me off.  Little did they know that i would be working as a trainee computer technican and I advised people NOT to use their ISP and to go with another one, I felt good doing that.
