RE: Why I haven't been posting all that much (Or, won't be able to for a little while)
Sorry to hear about your internet troubles, man. I've been there before, and it blows mightily. The second we're late with a payment, we get the ISP's goons on us demanding to know where their money is; they on the other hand get as long as they like to "fix" the service we're paying them money for.
Hope this Tuesday sees an end to your problems, @deadspace. We need more oomph on that 'Gaming' tag here. :)
It's just driving me nuts because it has been literally over 2 weeks of this non stop. Huge latency spikes, ping going up to 900-1000, internet cuts out for 10 seconds sometimes, others for 40 minutes. It is maddening, man. It wouldn't be driving me so crazy if I didn't rely on making some scratch on here to help me be able to pay bills, but yeah, I do that so it drives me freakin nuts, haha.
You're spot on though about the goon thing. I can think of two times recently where they raised the price on the bill without notifying us, then when I was $2-5 short on a payment, they threatened to turn off the internet the next day and wanted to tack on a $20 late fee, lol. South park was DEAD ON with their representation of the cable company from that recent season. Seriously.
