Just curious as I have been away for a while, my subscription ran out and as I haven’t really been using the site much I have not renewed it yet, if I ever get back to the stage of making multiple mods a week I would be quicker to re-sub.

The free to use UK downloads server seems to be capped at around 10kb for me, as a UK resident with an awful ISP I would usually choose the UK server but have resorted to using the Texas 2 as it maintains closer to the 100kb mark at all times I have tried to download anything.

Anyway, just figured I should mention it.

Servers will slow down when they have a lot of users downloading on it. Proximity to where you live doesn't factor in, from what's been explained to me.

Fair point but in any case, PM, AM, Monday-Sunday UK is 10 KBs on average where Texas 2 is bare minimum of around 79 KBs, averages around 110 KBs.

There is known server congestion on the london server, Dark0ne is working trying to find a solution, there is this on the front page and here is the forum link:

But the second texas server is usually the fastest.

Thanks buddah, I hadn't seen that.

Yes, here in Texas, we do things bigger, better and faster. LOL
