ok well i decided this had to be brought up... starting the 30th of last month (november) i down graded from top-line verizon DSL to 49k dial-up... this ultimitly SUCKS due to as i progress on being bored since online play is near impossible with dail-up i have gotten DEEPER into skining then i was be4... but uplaoding even downloadin for tha part on textures and things to share with u all and to see what every1 elses work looks like.. as basicly got me bummed cuz everything that is over ill say 1mb takes me 20 minutes to down load.. which is ashame dur to lost connection from dial-up happening suddenly and more then once an hour... but i think my whole point for this was, how many of us on this site use dial-up and am i the only 1 with this problem using dial up?

It's a hard life on dial-up these days. Most of the world has moved to faster connections and so file sizes have increased across the board. Dial-up should be free, it's almost worthless now.

aint that the truth.. i started gettin online in summer of 2002 yes back then i used dial-up.. but after the big move from florida to new york in 03 it was DSL verizion.. hell downloadin a movie was liek a 20 minute job and that was liek a 400mb file.. but yea actually the dial up im on is free not bad actually except the crappy downloadin and disconnects.. but at this point its better then no net at all.. crap only reason i have it is cause with my father recently passin away the 4th of november and im the one supporting my mom for right now i had to make a few cut backs and the 79$ a month bill for DSL was the place to start cuz mostly everything else is a NEED to have.. but give it 2-3 months and ill be back to the land of the fast and well it will just be FAST again..lol but atleast i know now that its not just my imagionation..

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Make some skins to keep the mind occupied.
