It's pretty annoying how they keep rubbing in the fact that it's "free".  I don't care!  And it's annoying how they require Javascript..

Anyway, hah, 417.6kbit.  Funny how the slowest connection is the one hosting the site

And annoying.

You SHOULD ask Mythix to host you, and stop caring about his bandwidth, sheesh. Trust me, Sidoh and I will still be beating you.

I don't quite understand what you mean.  This website takes up an insignificant amount of bandwidth, so it's not like it's affecting the total amount. 

That test isn't right, either.  I've frequently clocked my banwidth at 2.88mbit.  I wouldn't be surprised if their server is a large geographical distance from me, or if the paths between me and that server are crappy/congested.

A while back when you were still active on AIM, and we actually talked to eachother frequently, you were talking about bandwidth being why you didn't ask Mythix to host. (IIRC)

And lately the site has been slower then usual, like a easily noticeable amount. Which is why I said that.

I don't remember saying that.  At the moment, I wouldn't want Mythix to host because it's hard to get in touch with him.  It's not as bad as c0ld, at least. 

And yeah, I think there's something wrong with the computer itself that's slowing it down.  Even over the LAN it's bad.  I'm going to have to investigate..

The odd thing is it's irradically bad.  Sometimes it's fine, but a few minutes later it takes a long time to load a page.

One thing I've noticed is that when I submit a post at times, it'll not do anything for about 30 seconds, then IE will bomb (error).  Since I haven't ever used FireFox on a normal basis, I couldn't tell you how it reacts.

It's only a slight nuciance.  I don't think moving it to dark-wire at this point would be worth the trouble.  Plus, I don't think dark-wire supports addon domains.
