That's a great idea. thanks.

Can't sleep

Me too, but I'm used to it and it no longer bothers me.

Anyway, my internet connection is still shit, but now it's getting incredibly frustrating.

My maximum download speed is about 40kb/s.

[Jakkarra]

That looks like a torrent downloader.

That's Illegal! I'm telling on you!

Depends on what you're downloading. Don't be jumpin' to conclusions now.

My maximum download speed is about 5 KB/s. I'd kill for 40... D:

Obviously, the only way to determine if he's a pirate or not is to weigh him against a duck.

[Sir Pseudonymous]

About 90% of the people on this forum are admitted pirates, and many are damn proud of it (for numerous reasons, foremost because there's jack shit wrong with it, for reasons that have been reiterated and reiterated but never seem to sink into some people). Given that, at 40 KB/s there was still over a day left on the download, I feel it's safe to assume it was more than a gigabyte left, which would imply it was a game, or high definition (or shitty telesync) movie.

I sometimes get a whole meg on my torrent client Legal downloads.

What? No, pirates sink when they walk the plank, so clearly they are not made of wood. Instead, seeing as you are what you eat, I propose we weigh him against a barrel of rum.

You think logic will stop a witchpiratehunt!?

People downloading music makes me sad. If they download popular music, I am sad because they are listening to bad music, and if they don't, I am sad because an artist who cares about their music does not get money.

I don't think he's coming back guys. He was pretty set on his ideas about himself and he wasn't doing anything to change things to make his situation any better. Not to mention he didn't feel important or whatever here so even if he was around he might just not be associating with here anymore.

Long time no response but oh well!

Awwww you guys still think about me.

Basically, I took some time off from the internet. All kinds of stuff happened very suddenly in my life, including A) getting psychological help (yay therapist), B) getting medical help (yay Lexapro), and C) getting emotional help (yay girlfriend). I check on stuff every now and then, but these days, I'm too busy having real-life friends and doing real-life things that are all aimed at raising my problematic self-esteem. As you can see, I am getting enough free time now to check in here, though! So hi everyone. Miss you lots sometimes.
Well, some of you.

You do realize that less popular bands profit more from the free advertising that provides than any sales that might be lost because of it, right? Someone tells you to listen to some band you've never heard of before, are you going to go out and drop $10+ on their albums, or are you going to go download their music (and then there's the fact that if they've got a deal with a recording studio they're making jack shit on cd sales to begin with, so it's not as though your money would go to them in the first place)? If you like the music, there's a decent chance you'll either buy their albums or go to their concerts, and if you don't, how is it any different from hearing it on the radio and not liking it?
