Morning shipmates, not sure where to ask this so thought I'd post it here. Is something wrong with the downloads section? I keep getting I have exceeded my downloads for today msg. This applies to any subsection of downloads. :wah: Just for the record I have only downloaded 2 mods today :06:

Anyone else having this? any moderators can help.

Best regards.

If you have received a message Sorry! You have exceeded your daily allowed download amount it is because one of two things:

You have hit download limit for the day. We have a limit because with hundreds of members downloading every day, it can get pretty expensive for us. Look to the top right of the forum, see those names? Those are the guys who recently donated to keep Subsim rolling.
.

You can donate a small sum here (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/payments.php)and instantly have access to 25, 60, even 100 downloads a day! Plus get the Bonus Mods and choose your custom avatar.
.
Your donation goes to pay for the server at Softlayer (http://www.softlayer.com/dedicated-servers/quad-processor-servers). A website this big uses a lot of bandwidth and needs a really powerful server to stay online day after day, for 15 years. Thanks for the support!

If you have been a member a long time, and you've never posted or have not posted in a long time, your account may be in Limbo. Solution: make a post somewhere in the forum. This post will be placed in the moderation que, and after 24 hours or less the forum will automatically enable downloads for you again. We have to do this to prevent spammers from joining, waiting a few months and then bombarding the forum with ads for Vi-a-gra, etc. When you sign up to Subsim, we encourage you to be an active member of the forum community. That means making at least 1 post and introduce yourself. You, you're an interesting guy--you like submarine games, history, and computers. We want you to be part of the Subsim crowd.

To get the Bonus Mods & become a SUBscriber & member of the Subsim Navy, there are several levels of membership available, as low as $5! That's the cost of a Starbucks coffee or a pack of smokes.

You can download 25, 45, even 100 regular downloads daily, as well as gain access to the bonus mods, have a custom avatar and profile pic, and more album uploads. You are supporting the Subsim website and that's something to be proud of! :salute:http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=203091

I see, after re-reading your post, 2 d/l only, maybe server instability.

Try again after a while?

Edit: just tried a d/l, told me to wait 23 secs. And i haven't d/l anything at all today.

Appreciate that, but wait about 3 weeks, we'll be having the Annual Fundraiser.

As for you having trouble d/ling, I need to check and see why, you are an Ace level contributor, there should be nothing stopping you.

Edit: Oh, I see you already have (read ALL the posts this time :) )

Thanks!!
