I had this thought today. All you people complaining about the speed of the free forums & wanting to know just how much faster the subscriber forums are. Up until now you have had to take our word for it.

So, I made this. It's a video of me loading the locked thread at the top of this forum, with my settings set at 100 posts per page. Keep in mind I'm on my work connection right now, on my cable at home it's even faster.

Any more questions?

<< howmany seconds was that to load the locked one? >>


To me, it takes about 10 seconds.

I'm on a 2.5 Mbps ADSL line.

If it were slightly cheaper I'd seriously consider it. Or maybe for a longer term...

Heck yeah I'm a subscriber! I spend more on a bottle of single malt Scotch than I did a year of AT ;) If it's the principle.........

<< It's way faster as a subscriber. waywayway >>



I never thought I'd find myself quoting and agreeing with a Canuck, well there's a first time for everything.

Bleh.. Once a thread gets too big and I'm not participating in the thread, I don't go to it.. I only really visit the Hot Deals forum now.

I know he's living and working in AL but technically isn't he still a Canuck?

When did we (ATOT at large) cure him of his illness?

URL?
