Yes, bradrap! What the hell is that??? It's got to be some kind of inconsistency in the line. I've tried all sorts of different IRC servers too and it just ends up with the same problem. Please can we get the basics fixed first?
 
Down to 6kb/s now. We are officially hitting 56k dialup speeds !!! Good job, clearly there is nothing wrong. Not like any other posters are complaining today.
 
Fun to see how the internet makes kids rage.

PS: Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics, even if you win, your still retarded.

I lol'ed after reading further in the thread. ;)
 
I often get speeds of 1kb/s. Especially during the day. At night it usually goes up a bit more though. Last night I had full speed at 420kb/s at around 2am.
 
Ok my black ops won't connect. just telling me connecting for about 10min then boom telling me I don't have internet when I do.

1. I phoned Telkom and my connection is fine
2. I tried rebooting router.
3. Rebooting pc
4. looks like my steam is also disconnecting alot.
5. Tried another steam server

BTW this is on my home account and not the business one

the message from black ops: The black ops servers is not available at this time please check www.callofduty.com/Blackops/status
 
This is really bad. Im only getting 12KB/s. At least with a IS or SAIX account you get full speed on cached anytime during the day. This will be my last month with this crap shaping of mweb, since i already paid them.
 
Yup, it just makes me so angry when ppl tell you to stop complaining on a thread made for issues like this. Hell people, if you dont have any problems, dont come here and tell others to stop complaining. Its hard already, im frustrated to the max, feels like my house has been broken into and my pc stolen. Remember, we are paying them for a service, its not like we are getting it for free.

It's not what you did, it's how you do it. You and some member that actually swore at Mweb are apparently totally unaware what you are doing and you will, like so many times before happened with other ISP's on MyBB, kill off this service that Mweb allow us via Will and Mwebguy by the attitude you present here. Rather take your gripes to Mweb head office or just cancel the service instead of creating issues here with such an bad attitude that will cost us other MyBB members this great service. If you cannot see that then I fully understand your methods of throwing your toys out of the cot.
 
They still do shape when they are busy. So I have found that stuff does go slowly during "peak" hours.
I guess I am pretty happy though. Things get done eventually :)

Yes, I agree but when you are paying extra for the unshaped and it trickles down, your getting short changed.
 
Peole still use IRC?

What servers etc? to do what?

NNTP is dead slow... it was fine, and last two weeks has been terrible. Don't care who's fault it is, I am paying MWEB. No one else... Fix it or I move.
 
why just dont use paid news server? as you going to pay extra for openweb gold anyway , can just use bucks with mweb and get paid new server and get decent performance, what i do :)

So we must take it to a private room so new customers can see it... and Yes I can see your point of swearing at poor Will in this case as he seems to want to help... but someone feeling sorry for Will still does not justify others getting bad service from MWEB... saying F MWEB is not pointed a Will and should not be it should be at the Group as a whole. If I saw these posts (and yes I was browsing MyBB extensively; I would not have gotten MWEB UNSHAPED UNCAPPED from them and saved me allot of time and trouble... but when I signed the general feeling towards MWEB was ... AWESOMENESS...)

Lets take your route for example... My 1st reaction was to go to MWEB with my problems... a "specialist" contacted me said he would sort me out... point of the story he tried he failed and nothing was done. My last conversation with him went something along the lines of...
Me: I see allot of people are complaining about my issue, is this a big issue at the moment for everyone.
Consultant: Yes
Me: So is this currently being looked into by the MWEB techs...
Consultant: Yes we are currently investigating the issue
Me: Ok then I guess it is futile for me to waste your time further, we already confirmed that it is the same issue
....
And we ended the call that is... now 3weeks +-ago if I am not mistaken.
I know of a more MWEB wow players who also find it unusable... still no change?

Still feeling you would prefer if we shut-up and sit in a corner? And yes people loose there cool if they are being screwed over... its part of being support. A company who retracts one of its "service areas" due to unhappy customers is a REALLY REALLY bad company no matter how bad MWEB Support are treated. The Support team would not have been in this situation if the tech team were doing their job well... After working for most banks and working for... places like Eskom its easy to see the difference.
 
Download speed is around 12 kbs here.. latency to Joburg is 200-300MS from Pretoria... Steam also disconnects every min or two wich is really getting on my nerve...

wow managed to get servers after waiting for 6 minutes with pings of more than 700ms - can anyone else play online....looks like time for me to cancel
 
Cannot even get connected to COD BO servers - this is getting sad MWEB....
Sadly neither can I , I can get into haxer infested Crysis 2 but not BOPS .
All round preformance since my post in the morning is OK thou
HTTP maxing at 95 kbs
Steam the same
News servers at 60 kbs A drop from the mornings 70 kbs
Video play back is smooth
Latency -1 :)

The DNS is still wack so I stll have to use the IS one
And BOPS doesn't work shows a few SA servers but can't connect to the game.
 
Thank you kind sir, i will be here all night ! :)

And I won't be. :) There is life outside you know? ;)

ps. I was referring to:

So basically you're retarded. :p

+1 They won't stop Megas, the typical South-African consumer mentality comes to play here. Whine whine whine until you either get told to gtfo or the people that helped you the most leaves and you sit worse off than before. In turn ruining it for those that actually try help better the service by providing helpful feedback. MyBB has become very negative as a whole and I for one am enjoying the forum less each day. Constant bickering and arguing in the most childish ways, not to mention the hypocrisy of some is pathetic imho. Reminds me of our government...
