Can i get a what what?

[Sqlinjection]

R is for the way you play to me
O is very very overkill posting on this damn site
M is even more than sending me a good link with roms that i adore

Lol , you're a really small kiddy.... Haven't you ever lernt to act socially ?

 

[Clements]

Nice try.

 

[revl8er]

At least someone was trying to be a little more creative with their rom requests lol.

 

[Martin]

Wow. Would have expected him to be on AOL.

 

[Xade]

Hurr hurr.

Mind, I'm on uber-corporate pigdog service BT 1.1Mbit here, so... *cough*.

A little less amateur, though.

 

[Trotterwatch]

Well Xade, they ain't forcing you. I know there are other ISPs in the merry land of England (none of them any good mind you )

 

[Xade]

How many do you know that offer solid reliable 1.1Mbit on ADSL though? I mean I get 120K download speeds all the time...

That said, I'm paying stacksssss for mine (£37 - $70 per month).

A few I'm sure, perhaps browse net4nowt sometime. Anyways why whinge about it if you're getting a good speed? I'm just saying, put up or move elsewhere.

The broadband situation in the UK though is total shit I'd have to say that (having experienced it for a while). Sweden is like a different world in comparison (cheap and fast - the former is saying something as nearly everything else is expensive).

 

[Xade]

For my sort of connection what are we talking price-wise over there?

 

[Trotterwatch]

Just tried the first ISP and got it to around £30 for a 2MB connection (about £23 for 1meg), though you can get vastly higher than that for not much more, as well as lower for less of course.

I'm sure shopping around would get much better deals than that though.

 

[Xade]

Christ! I'm moving to Sweden!

Then again, that saving is gonna be displaced majorly by the fact that, like, everything else over there is a rip, right?

Yeah the taxes are a bit on the high side. Though I don't drink to excess, nor do I smoke, so I don't notice it as much as others might.

Check here: http://www.bostream.com/controller.php?action=private

(The site's in Swedish, but it's pretty easy to understand). 26Mbps for around £30 a month Only in certain areas though. I believe the setup charge is also reasonably substantial (but affordable).

 

[Xade]

...26?

Here I am with 1.1Mbps thinking I'm a bigshot.

26?!?!?!

 

[-Shadow-]

I recently got 3 Mbps , 1,1 mbps has got normal in germany . They got no 700 kbps lines anymore , 1,1 mbps is minimum ^_^

But 26 Mbps ? That's ridiculous !

 

[zAlbee]

wah, and i thought my 5 Mbps was amazing... oh well it still is. i love downloading at 600 K/s

 

[Martin]

Sweden is lovely when it comes to broadband.

I used to have 10Mbit half duplex (dedicated) and paid around £15 a month for it and I've been on a shared 100Mbit connection which was completely free.

But now I'm on 2Mbit and pay about £30. In September I'll be back on 10Mbit though and it's free as well.

zAlbee:
You have a 5 mb connection and only download at 600 kb? My connection is 4 mb and I have seen 700 kb and higher although average is like 400 on most sites, except windows update where I downloaded like 15 mb in less than a minute. I pay $20 a month (canadian) and its DSL.

 

[Xade]

Hah, I can't help but feel poor in amongst this crowd! Maybe it's time for that 1,000 Mbps fibre-optic to my ISP... heh...

That's an interesting (lame?) poll actually... what sort of connections are people on at emutalk?!

I'm almost certainly gonna be a mid-carder by the looks of things.

 

[Al_Bundy]

Cut your whingeing, ya pom.

I think it about time that the English stop whingeing. They whinge about the cricket and haven't got over the fact that they have actually won a world championship for once. They'll get over it eventually, but they shouldn't cause it will be their last for a while.

I live in Australia and I am on ADSl and I get a download speed of 20Kb\s so I don't know what you are whingeing about. I'm not whingeing yet because I've only just got off Dial-Up so I am happy.

Oh by the way. I hope you enjoyed your success in the West Indies cause it will be your last for a long time.

Ahhhh, I feel much better now. :teehee: Thanks :naughty:
