I think we all agree that no one is trying to get anyone riled up. I know how individual some problems can be. Heck I can't even write an email to my mom because her providor has me or my isp on a spam list for some reason. This isp is from a small cable company in Switzerland, and I assure you they are not spammers! At first when I tried to write, I got a return notice saying it was refused due to article 504something or other - I followed it back to the main providor that was refusing it and they had me or the isp, not sure, listed as "potentially hazardous", lol!
They did explain how to get back in the good graces, but my mom would have to take care of it from her end, and she's 85 and very un-savy when it comes to computers. So I just write to her from yahoo mail, which I hate with a passion, but heck, gotta do what you gotta do!
So yeah, back to sharecg - it's all cool. I know they are doing their best, and for those that can get it working, great. I'm beginning to wonder if the limited downloading is on my end. But then I have limits elsewhere - and sometimes it's two at a time, sometimes 3. Rarely 4. Maybe it is associated to the size of the files - perhaps my isp has a limit as to how much I can download in one session. shrug could be anything, and I'm willing to say some may be on this end - but when one site downloads at 340 kbps, and then sharecg downloads at 5o kbps, it seems pretty clear that they are not using high speed servers.
I'm just saying that I think they should look into getting more speed on their servers - and yes, I know they are working on it. I'm patient, got too much enjoyable stuff to do to worry about it. Thrre are other options if scg doesn't work out, but I do hope they manage to get their act together. I have a feling they really didn't anticipate the swarm they would have.
I'll just sit back and see what happens. :)
