It’s rediculous, if continue in such a way, they are likely to lose good half of their users, who, on the other hand, will never end up losing. If you, users, want to revenge, download as much as you can (useing http://rapidqueen.com/ )from rapidshare… At least you’ll know what to do next day without Internet… )

i used to have a 10megabit sprint broadband direct it was a microwave wireless service. i used to run a anime hotline server i would upload 10-20gigs a day for a few months then they started sending letters saying the same stuff slowing the network down .they said i could only upload 1gig a week or some thing like that. to make a long story short my service was disconnected and now i’am on a cox cable line. i’ve not had any problems over the last 5 years with anything of the sort.

U were only allowed to UP 1GB a week? That’s just crazy.

I just think its funny that they try to jack up rates promising ever faster speeds that you basically aren’t even allowed to come anywhere near fully using.

I really don’t know if this would work if they explained it to a judge. They are basically saying…GUESS WHAT OUR CUT OFF POINT IS! To their customers.Not a very good way to keep customers but a very good way to LOSE them!
