Slightly less embarssing than them finding what illegal pr0ns you downloaded, right?
when I'm at home during the winter and summer I download a shit ton of stuff like Roms from cox. Man, sucks for you.
ISP's actually do that? Ha ha ha, I was actually thinking of starting up a service with COX. Glad I didn't make the choice.
wow. thats..... some shit right there.
Can't you have used someone else's connection?
I'm glad Time Warner's Roadrunner is a lot more sensible.
Oh, those silly american ISPs. Mine openly rewards sharing and pirating videogames, movies and everything that can be pirated. They even made a DC++ channel, a Torrent Tracker and a huge FTP with terrabytes of stuff. I don't use any of it BTW.
I'm glad I have Time Warner. I haven't been eRaped because of my "activities" on the internet.... yet.
I'm no Consumerist junkie, but I've never heard of an ISP doing something like that.
What a load of fucking bullshit! First for blocking your connection and second for not warning you. I'm glad my provider doesn't care at all.
Wow...thats a bunch of crap. I've never heard of something like this happening. Seems damn absurd.
Re-damn-diculous.
Also, Front Page!
That sucks man. I got a cease and desist from Charter about a year ago. Seems NBC didn't care for me downloading Battlestar Galactica. Charter stepped up to the plate though and cockblocked litigation in favor of slapping me on the wrist. Thank you Charter!
I've got the exact same shitty ISP because there's virtually nothing else available where I live.
I'm surprised no one has sued them over the amount of downtime there is, cause it's fucking absurd.
Cox, Charter, and Comcast all pull this lame shit
Sucks man, I received a nice little letter from the RIAA in my email box about a year ago while I was dloading a copy of COD4. Needless to say I went out and purchased a legitimate copy the same day. Stupid Charter cable and stupid RIAA.
Communists, the whole lot of 'em.
Wow, that sucks. I have never heard of anyone getting a "no access slap on the wrist" from their ISP because of a downloaded ROM. Movies and HBO series sure, but an 8-bit ROM? WTF? New lows have been reached today.
In Canada it's illegal to share files, not download them: Come on over, you will fit right in.
Read Here
Roms and old stuff are totally fine to download in my books but if you would have said Spore or something I would have gasped liked this *GASP*
protip: get verizon FIOS ASAP
Sounds like when I got my net shut down over a game I did not download!
Shitty deal man. Hope you're able to smooth things over with the BFBC associate producer. Shit like this is why I never use my ISP email accounts.
Maybe this will cheer you up! :)
OMG I feel your hatred.
Get a copy of the game and give them shit right now.
Emergency Dial up ftw.
Do you have the data protection act in the US? Demand to see all the info they have on you.
I read the title and though of that picture before even clicking on it, But that is messed up I better delete mickey mania ASAP.
Verizon doesn't give a fuck. :)
I had Cox in Louisiana and must of downloaded a TON of crap on their service and they never did crap to my connection. I don't know where you live but your Cox people are a-holes xD
Fuck that shiznit, bust out the AOL discs and get some trial internet going Rev.
how the fuck are they even able to know you not-downloaded that shit?
thats a gross invasion of privacy mang.
seems really fucking shady.
go to kinkos or your local college and use one of those computers?
Weird. I just got a warning about downloading crap this morning. Conpiracy I tell ya
How bizarre.. Thank goodness I dun have Cox, coz otherwise..
..I'd have to kick them sq-AWW n' d' NOOTZ! -Cartman (South Park)
Hmmm...Also, Cox Sux Dix?
...I got nothing.
The only ISP I've ever had a problem with was Ygnition. So far, Time Warner has kept to themselves.
Wait, what? A ROM? They specifically mentioned the Mega Man ROM? There has to be more to it than that. I'm guessing that was just the straw that broke the camel's back. I hope so, anyway. Otherwise, me and my several hundred ROMs are screwed.
"Note: Emulation is wrong and I'm an immoral person, but it's none of Cox's goddamn business and they should have let me know beforehand."
Wrong...You are licensing their service. Check your EULA (or your mom's if you live at home).
You should make an "I hate Cox" group...of course you'll probably end up with 14,000 lesbians
Very sorry to hear this, dude... you need to escape to Canada. Well, as long as it's like Quebec, because it seems like every other province is the same these days.
my guess is that this is an elaborate prank. Way to go Ash!
Man, I've been NOT downloading gigs of stuff on my NOT R4(well CycloDS, but they're the same) for weeks.
Time to slow down a bit I guess. Yeah right!
I have Cox, My internet goes out, I torrenet the fuck out of my account......no threats and such of the sort.
This is going too far now.
First Post!
And i though my past internet providers where shit.... Yours just takes it to the next level. Ever Consider to change provider? You bitch a lot about your net gaming and ect.
I think you're putting the blame on the wrong people here. Clearly the one to blame is Mega Man.
That's a pretty gross invasion of privacy, mang. I can't even fathom calling up my ISP and having them tell me I was blocked from the interbananas because I downloaded Mega Man.
LOL Dexter. You're such a lovable Mega Man troll :P
but yeah, while there may be something in their EULA that doesn't make it right.
- He is right you should kill yourself
There are voices in my head
- Oooooh, You're such a mess
Saying things that shouldn't be said
- You're talentless.
I just hope that they will
- No we won't
Go away
Wow, I can't even believe the can do that. I mean you shouldn't be downloading illegal things but they shouldnt be watching what you download either.
Dr. Wily is to blame.
Also, you throws the dice, and you takes your chances.
YOU DOWNLOADED A ROM FUCKING PIRATE THANKS FOR SUPPORTING THE INDUSTRY ASSHOLE RABBLERABBLERABBLERABBLE!
Wildblue has stupid download caps that make it impossible to do anything on the Internet.
