Would you download a 200kb rm2k game?

Yes, because I am a loser with no life who stares at the computer screen all day.

No, that would take at least 48 hours with my 56k modem!

With DAP, I average 400 kb/s (high speed cable).

Lun runs on dialup...


Since we all know Lun hasn't been living under a rock, he fits the former of the two... (jk) :P

I think you meant mb not kb. A 200kb wouldn't even have anything to run with.

I know what kilobytes and megabytes are.

I never said you didn't. I just suggested that it was a typo.

See, you may wonder why I'm not on broadband. But It's because I want to be like Lun!

Internet sarcasm never works. 8) Sarcasm requires a tone of voice and facial expressions, none of which can be done over the internet.

well you can try getting a little sarcasm by doing unnessesary bolding and italics in your writing,

Ex.

Iteroth just stoned someone!

lol, I downloaded a 600MB game. My mom freaked cuz she thought that meant it was 60GB. Seriously, some people know nothing...

But just so you know, the game was SO not worth the 7 hours of downloading. and that was using a cable modem. it's called conquer online or something. gay game, and my char got deleted when i didn't play for a week.

As online games go though, I'd recommend Fairyland. Sounds lame, but it gave me months of entertainment. Maybe i shoulda done homework instead...oh well! :D

I also tried conquer online but I stopped playing as soon as I started the program. I think it only took like three hours to download... And I'm on cable so you know.

Fairyland was good, but then I had to level up forever and lost interest.

And as for your mother thinking it was 60 gigs, parents should stay away from computers. They know nothing and only succeed in loading thousands of spyware programs onto the harddrive that are near impossible to get off. "I WON?! WOW!!! I GUESS I'LL CLICK IT AND DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING IT ASKS ME TO!!!!!!!!!!!!"
