Bandwidth limit

[retrac55]

The bandwidth limitation is pretty severe. Personally I would pay to have an 'unlimited' account, maybe that can be made available?

Users with Pass has also limits?

All users are subjected to some sort of limits to prevent people using automated software from abusing our network.
The limits are higher for contributors to the video forums and One Click Pass members.

Is it possible for a limit to be assigned based on the number of thanks? Is there no chance of the old rules coming back? I never noticed the forum running slow, and I didn't save pictures to disk because I was aware that they were always on the forum. Now after clicking a dozen, if they are in a large size, there is a limit. I never tried to download them all, but it gave me mental comfort to know that I could look at any one photo, one at a time.

pokaz_cycki,
You have been a member for 7 years and made 18 posts.

If you enjoy our forums want greater access with much higher limits, please consider getting a One Click Pass.

I happily paid for a lifetime membership to this forum, but there was NO mention made at that time about any "bandwidth limits." What are the actual numbers for these limits, and why are they not made available before one pays for a membership?

vgary,
The limits in place are very liberal. Less than 1% of our members are effected by them. Having them in place protects the majority of our members from experiencing slow responses or unresponsive pages. The limits only last 6 hours on a rolling basis. So even if someone is on an all day porn binge, they can still come back a few hours later. We put them in place for all of our members to enhance their experience here and so small select people don't try to harvest our site with badly configured automatic downloading software. It is for the greater good of our community here.

I just got cut off for downloading too many photos.

Are you guys broke? I have to assume that a hundred photos or so is not very much bandwidth.

Is this new? I have never seen this while logged in. What is the limit? I would hate to see what my video limit is?

Thanks for the redirect. I find it hard to believe I came under the one percent. Clearly wasn't using any download software. And still no access after a few hours.

Also, It seems like just opening the full size image without saving it is counting as a download. Is that the same with the video previews?
