Re: Whine and Complain

Everyone has the right to post, but everytime something about bandwidth usage comes some says something idiotic like, "Well if they gonna put bandwidth caps on me they better stop me from receiveing pop ups." or my favorite "Then they better stop spam from coming to my mail box." PopUp ads are annoying but they're not bandwidth killers unless you're real heavy into porn pop up pages. And ask for spam unless you just download all your spam it's a non issue. Some people try to make something from nothing.

While I agree that this offer is more than reasonable, I still have to say that what it all boils down to is that people will pay to receive spam.

It may only be in the fractions of a cent, but the idea of paying for something one hates is unsettling, no matter how minute it may seem.

At least thats why I think people have the 'OL "Then they better stop spam from coming to my mail box." attitude.

I don't share that view, but I could "possibly" see where some folks are coming from.

Am I allowed to complain about packet retransmits?

If I'm getting 30% - 50% retransmits, should I be paying additional fees?

I don't think so.
