I'm trying to download the new Dig session from 8 am this morning. Always "TOO MANY USERS, try later". AAAAH ole good passwords, access only for those who deserved it

Re: too many users

That is still the case, only now you simply do not get to see the downloads if you don't have enough posts....Passwords are a little obsolete if the downloads are only to be seen by those who qualify for downloading ;-)

Re: too many users

actually i have not been able to dl the dig kiss set at all......it just freezes up....not sure what is going on....

Re: too many users

There is a limit to the amount of downloads that can occur in 1 hour. If you get the 'Too Many Users' message, just hold your horses and try again later. It's as simple as that.

Yesterday, I also experienced an Error with IE..instead of telling me that too many people are downloading, the site just loaded and did nothing...on Firefox I got the too many users message instantly. I guess you experienced the same thing.

Re: too many users

Re: too many users

look on the download stats...they are insane. The Digweed set was already downloaded close to 700! times and Hérnan`s mix even more than 700 times. 50 of the numbers you see are surely from me while I tested some shit but the board only allows a limited amount of connections per hour so you have to try again later.

Yeah thats what has happened to me, the site just loaded and did nothing.... I never have got the too many user message on this new site....

what is going on with the overload on downloads....we never have had this many hits before, have we? jeez the hernan set isnt that good..its ok but nothing special.

Re: too many users

the reason we didnt have this many hits before was because peeps were stealing links and bypassing the forums completely. Now that they need to come here, you're seeing weird things happening on the downloads page :lol:

Re: too many users

Personally, I'd be willing to pay a few bucks a month if if meant more bandwith/downloads. Nothing insane mind you, but $5.00-10.00 I don't think is unreasonable.

Re: too many users

I think MS should do some more t shirts for us to buy. thats a good way to contribute. Are there any left btw ?

#487674Post 12 of 25

Re: too many users

Yes, the tshirts are v nice. I donated, but I didn't care about trying for winning them.

Re: too many users

T-Shirts are on the way.... just to give you an idea.... we spent close to $600 last month on the dedicated servers

Re: too many users

I'm sure there used to be a "Paypal donate" at the bottom of every page :unsure:

[quote=Encryption]T-Shirts are on the way.... just to give you an idea.... we spent close to $600 last month on the dedicated servers[/quote] How do you guys afford to cover these costs every month (if you don't mind me asking:oops:)? That seems like a crazy deal with all the moochers on here (myself included).

ps. put me down for a shirt as well

[quote=ANUBIS]I try to go early morning or late day...off hours...less traffic :wink:[/quote] exactly! just requires a bit of patience. can't use my download manager anymore, but it's ok. a bit of patience & everyone should get the sets, i believe....

Seriously

[quote=Encryption]T-Shirts are on the way[/quote] Are they the same as the old one, or a new design??

#488043Post 24 of 25

Re: too many users
