I recently decided to grab myself one of the Gamer's King specials from Openweb. When I was mailed my username I noticed that it was not my [email protected] like it has been with previous ISP's but instead it was someone else's name... I logged on to users.isdsl.net to check and saw that there is usage for 2012 and even for 1-8 March...I opened the account on 8 March... My usage for yesterday and today, it says, is over 12 gigs... I have not even been at home!!! I want to know from you guys if this is normal, if so I don't think I am comfortable sharing usage on an uncapped account with someone else... Just now I am gonna be shaped or something and it's not even my doing... Has anyone else noticed this?
 
Hello,

I believe this was explained to you via the ticket system and covered on this forum before.

We do not throttle.

We do not shape based on usage, but based on how busy the network is at any given time.

Usernames are assigned at random by the system. Some are based on name, others on washing powder names, others on common pet names, and some even on famous politicians, just to add some fun to the system.
