1 edit | Again, I Am A Heavy User The problem is that mediocre or medium users proclaim always that they are "heavy" users and they have "headroom". I presume that gives them a good feeling.
A heavy user is somebody like me. Of course, CC considers that as "abuse".

If you use more then 99 out of 100 people, you're a very heavy user, just like if you have more money then 99 out of 100 people, you're very rich. | |

I think you've got me beat, although maybe I was doing FidoNet around that time. Wow! Yes, the good old days. Even in that time, one was always a "hog" for using too much CPU time, too much load on a 2400 line, too much time connected, incorrect packet scheduling, and so on.
The more things change, the more they stay the same, but now they are much more visible due to more commonplace use and more corporate greed.
