You shouldn't have to use all kinds of tools and junk to stream youtube.

I sent a pm to rpm, and he said thanks for the info.

Whether something comes from this I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Openweb is probably one of the few ISPs who doesn't have a control panel that allow you to change your password ect by default. Not sure why so many people like them, but I like to have access to a control panel to manage my account, whether it is for usage statistics, changing password ect. In this day and age you shouldn't expect any less!

Nothing will come from it. MyBB has long since stopped being a consumerist forum and instead become a platform for marketing. It's not limited to Openweb either. A few years back RPM was defending the owner of @lantic in a thread about them stealing money from ex-customers.

The moment you accept money for advertisements, it causes a conflict of interest because you can then no longer run scathing articles on that company unless you want to risk losing on ad revenue.

Not true PP

I also assumed this until I got a free 30GB unshaped freedom capped account which had a @mynetwork, and this was on the IS network.

I then asked MrBEEP about this and he said it was something to do with different "routing/profiles" so who knows?
 
Everything is always about "routing profiles" with OpenWeb.
Bullsh*t baffles brains answer.
 
About that free 30GB unshaped freedom capped account, which I got for helping in the thread with guys complaining about poor speed which were actually telkom problems - this account was proper unshaped 24/7, and performed well.

EDIT: Credit where credit's due :)

So if we all help each other, will we also get the same??? 'cos that's what seems to be happening. :D
 
Its good to know. I am glad there are actually Capped accounts that are truly unshaped and not network status based :) I believe in credit where its due, so kudos to them on these accounts.

I do wonder if those people defending and keeping their "trust"(as ISP's like to label it these days ) with Openweb on the account sharing matter when it got swept under the carpet, also got free Capped accounts like you got for assisting with support? I won't be surprised :whistle:

It's what cableguy said. MrBEEP did say what you've said in the past.
 
Hey [redacted],

10Mbps Titan Uncapped - R399

You must please hurry there are only 96 accounts left, and that is when we sent the email!
