Ooh, thanks Alex!! It took me eight hours to download it. O_o (Thanks internet connection.) But thanks so much!!

For some reason, your ISP really matters when downloading.

I can get 2mb/s on my fiber optic. But many people only get 100kb/s.


ALSO: If you go to a public school, if you can sneak onto a computer for 15 minutes and a flash drive, some have super-fast connections to IDOJ

My school's connection to IDOJ is nearly instant-- I can download an episode to the school computers in under five minutes and ep.

Since I'm Assistant to the Yearbook Editor (yay!) this year, I have a password to my school's "secret files" (My teacher always says this... it's just the files that students can't usually access, so that they can't change the settings on their accounts and stuff or change the "safe" sites to look at... dirty things ), and I have all the episodes stored on my school account, so I don't have to redownload them. I can take home one or two at a time with my flashdrive for video-making and watching perposes...

If you can, though, I suggest keeping them on at home permanently (instead of at school), or a portable hardrive/flashdrive, or a CD backup... I had to redownload most of my episodes because the school wiped their harddrives over the last year summer. It was my dumb mistake to make, and I'm still missing a couple eps now, I think... *shrug*

Not sure if this is good information or not, because I don't know what your school's rules are about downloading. Most kids at my school aren't allowed to keep as many files as I am, because I have about 3,000 pictures from this year alone lined up for the yearbook, and I'm also invovled in other clubs and stuff that boost up my account size, because I need to store video from our science olympics competitions and such.

Well your ISP is like the throttle to a car. Your car may be a stock car that can go up to 200 miles an hour, but if the throttle is only pushed down 1 centimeter, you're not going to move that fast.

Hate that.

Haha, awesome! I would participate in my high school's computer team, but, to be frank, I am way more qualified to teach than the current teacher. She doesn't even know how to program HTML; she has to have her student teacher teach it!!

So instead, I keygen'd the school computers and can login as an admin whenever I want.

Of course, you guys are the only ones that know this. I wouldn't even think of telling it to anyone I know at school.

Exactly.

Alex, I bow to thy greatness.

Also, I added a much-needed new icon: To use it, just type : facepalm : minus the spaces!

[okmeamithinknow]

I think I shall be utilizing said icon very very often.

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

lol Me, too!

[Alex]

Aaaannnddd me and Mara are locked out of the mainsite! What a wonderful surprise...

[Mara=^.^=]

I knew it wasn't just me!

Um...what should we do about this? I'm leaving in like 8 hours for Milford Sound, and I won't be back until October 21st. I won't have internet access during that time frame, so...

YA.

Damn, why do these sorts of things always have to happen at such inconvenient times?


~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

[Alex]

Is there any really big need? We barely update the mainsite anyways.

Perhaps you could email Canaca now or if not, than when you get back.

[J/C AVA]

Casue inconvenient times would only plan dates with you at... well.. inconvenient times?

[Mara=^.^=]

Ya, I guess I'll deal with it when I get back.

Anyway, thanks for being epic beyond the lot of mere mortals, Alex.


~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

[Mara=^.^=]

Oh right...I contacted Canaca THREE times for support with the login issue...still waiting for help.


~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

[Mara=^.^=]

All fixed! Mainsite is accessible once again
