Download speed NOT increased by donation

kiresagara · **Download speed NOT increased by donation -** Mar. 13th, 2008, 02:22 PM

I just donated $8 for 3 months, and my downloads are still going at 177kb/s. My average download speed for anything else on other sites is 1443kb/s.

I hope its only due to server traffic or some sort of problem, and I hope I wasnt tricked.

Edit- Maybe I need to log out then back in to activate my server access?

Your download speed will only be increased in comparison to the public server during high traffic volumes. The server you have access to has less traffic in general due to its exclussiveness. Therefore making your download speed faster than what it would be during high traffic times (Usually shortly after anime is released.) and faster than what the public can download at during high traffic.

You don't have to log back in, you're already marked as a supporter.

As Mush (new name for you ^^") explained during high traffic, I think we have like a 100 MB connection. So, if we have lot of donators downloading at the same time. The speed gets divided between them. o.o Also, if you are using the internet such as already downloading file from other site that will also affect it as well. Most of the time both of the sites will be pushing the data towards the computer and it might cause a traffic jam... This could maybe why it causes it slow down as well. O.o

uhm for free users we have limited amount of bandwidth and limited multiple downloads at the same time. o.o As for Premium users we don't have any restrict... So, the downloads speeds also vary with amount of users downloading. :x

im not downloading but site arrival is broken! if i try some days enter this site sayin ''database error''that problem meeted since courting bleach network v2!!

The database error is because the site server cannot connect to the Database server. We don't have the vB and the database on the same server. o.o" So, if the Database server goes down... It gives that error. o.o" I believe Compemptx will be fixing it soon. o.O

I just did the lifetime (25yrs actually) since 30 bucks isn't a bit deal to me. Hope I see some faster downloads. this has got me a little worried

Oh, don't worry...We're usually one of the first sites (IF NOT THE FIRST!) to have Bleach and Naruto up; and since you're a donator, you're be on the less-stressed server and get them even quicker!

We're also planning some sweet features for donators in the months to come. You'll get your money's worth.

Keep adding good features and ep and I can promise you I will donate again. I might end up having to put my bleach network password in my will...
