Refused Downloads

[kevtherev]

I am trying to download sobers mod list but after 7 downloads I get the following message :- Sorry! You have exceeded your daily allowed download amount.We have a daily limit because with hundreds of members downloading every day, it can get pretty expensive for us.
Become an officer in the Subsim Navy here and have your download limit increased to 25, 35 or even 60 a day! You will be supporting SUBSIM, the Internet's main source for sub games, files, and discussion since 1997. We were here for you, help us out a little.
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 joined this forum a long time ago, and you've never posted or have not posted in a long time (over a year), this could shut off downloads for you. 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 Vie-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. Make a post, we want you to be part of the Subsim crowd!
I tried for several days but still got the same message. Yesterday I made a donation to Subsim and tried once more, after receiving confirmation of the donation, still the same refusal message. What gives here ???

Have a look here:

once you reach your download limit you wait 24 hours and then you can download more.

the limit is based on how many posts you have and limits you to a certain number of downloads each day. its not based on the size of the download so if you need a lot of mods then make a list and get everything you can at other sites first then when you are done get the remaining downloads here so you dont go over your limit. this method usually gets you everything you need or if not you only need a few mods more which you can download the next day

if he made a donation then maybe there is an issue or maybe hes trying to go over the limit, everyone has a limit even me, the limit is easy to go over if you a new member and need ALL the mods.

Everything has its time, it will work out with the downloads, it does for all
