You're trying to tell me that because I downloaded a 70Kbytes mod that's gonna collapse the servers?!

Do you have any idea of how a Data Server works or the kind of loads even the crappiest kind can deal with?

The system this site uses it bull**** and whoever designed it never took a course in online storages.

1- If the problem is load on server (which I can believe to some extent) then the limit should be on file size (simple example, 500 MBs per day), not number of files.

2- There is absolutely nothing forcing you to use the incredibly ****ty hosting provided by SubSim over solid, proven hosts like say, Mediafire or even better FileFront.

Just because something is free doesn't mean you can avoid any semblance of professionalism.
The fact still remains that these people are doing you a favour, if you have any criticsm to make you should do so constructively and politely. You wouldn't walk into the Oxfam shop and start shouting at the staff because you didn't like their pricing strategy would you? Just because this is the internet and you have anonymity, doesn't mean you can act however you want. Please and thankyou will get you alot further than having a hssiy fit!

Cheers.
