So you would rather waste R150 to sign up to opentorrent and have all your hope struck down in the near 5 minutes of logging on. Im trying to WARN you its bad.... Its worse then the service slimothy had(the part where he took all our $$$ and ran)

Nah, then people like you will sign up and screw it up,

LOL. I figure you'll manage that all by yourself. Then you'll be pleading for MrBeep to take you back AGAIN!
:p

I think people have got the message by now, it's pretty pointless going on and on about it.

The standard TorrentFlux software does have occasional problems. A mate had a TF server and had to reboot it once a week as eventually access to the server was shaky and occasionally a couple of small things went wrong. A reboot used to fix everything.

Some torrents, if there are funny characters in the filename or some data it can't parse, can confuse the software and cause it to go haywire. Such is the nature of these kinds of things. Not MrBEEP's fault.

Other characters, odd ones that people use to distinguish their torrents from other releases. An incomplete .torrent file could also cause trouble. En hoekom is jy nie by die skool mannetjie?

LOL. I'd suggest that taking him in any way seriously would be a serious lapse of judgement!

Entertaining thread but sad future ahead for our youths who can't command english very well.

You weren't banned for posting, you were banned for abusing the service.

Please get your facts right before posting on a public forum.

If you continue bad mouthing the OpenWeb name for no apparent reason, I will take legal action against the registered account holder, Basil Mamacos.

I agree with you MrBeep..

Personally i don't know the Opentorrent service.. I don't even have DSL..

So i cannot comment if its good / fair / bad.

And i do give out comments at times.

Its fine to let out your opinion and let ppl know what you think. A person has that right.
But each person can make up his own mind.

There's no need to keep repeating a opinion.

But mamacosjd.... eish mamela... Thats just slander dude...

Almost every post u keep on hammering on....

sies!

Torrent download alternative

Hi Guys

I found a torrent download service at http://www.ttorrent.net/

Haven't tried it out yet but it was on Digg and seems to be pretty popular.

I'm very happy

Been using the torent service for a month now, and must say extremely happy - just subscribed again for September 2006. Ignore the bad publicity, I find the service excellent

Please guys, before following this advice, search the forums! Lots of things have been said about certain past histories of MyAdsl.

What types of speed do they download at to their server? I am also looking to try it. Just signed up for the trial. Waiting for confirmation

Do you guys actually pay for access to torrent services?

No it is more saving on bandwidth and speed. Download to server at much greater speed we could achieve then download via http at full speed to yourself. Haven't tried something like this yet, but would like to

For some reason they haven't sent me any confirmation on the trial :confused:
