RE: Help Conserve Bandwidth Usage!
I had no idea the bandwidth was such an issue for new users. I started back in June but never had any problems with bandwidth. I think it's odd that it'd be throttled to such a degree - is this an issue with the architecture of the site itself? Conserving bandwidth seems like a temporary problem for something that could potentially become a much larger issue - a site of this magnitude should be easily able to handle its current user capacity.
The problem is with the growth. With all the new users, the amount delegated to new users is being reduced, which reduces their bandwidth cap. Combine that with more active users, which means more bandwidth is being used, and they can pretty much only post once per day. They pretty much can't network, which kind of makes it less of a social network.
