Agreed.
Seeming as though I can browse through about a dozen 50 page threads in a minute or two I think there are serious issues with rate of content delivery within a time period.

Although I may not recall the exact number of online users of this site at every time interval there needs to be an increase in allowed bandwidth to accommodate a larger number of users.

Says the guy that doesn't bother becoming premium to help pay for the servers?
Either quit whining or start paying.
Or stop using the site at all, clearly the huge library of resources isn't worth your patience.

I guess, does get very slow at times.

I would get premium but not allowed to use parents credit card, and I dont have any of my own cards, (no bank, credit etc...)

people don't pay premium because it's a load of shit not worth paying for

I never said you had to pay. I just said don't whine about it being slow if you're not going to.

its a free website, therefore we're allowed to complain. in addition, advertisements on bos are there only because of the high viewership. no viewers, no advertisers.

in conclusion, stop posting

I want premium for three reasons.

1. Light blue name... Yay! (yes I probably have something wrong with me)
2. Premium resources are quite good. I'd like to access them all the time.
3. Double height avatars ^_^

I should probably pay off my paypal debt so I can pay for a premium membership and then I can help pay for the server costs. I would like to see BoS work a little better though. If new servers are the solution, that would be nice.

I don't mind the advertisements at all... probably because I use an adblocker and they all go bye-bye.

Bring on new servers! :D hehe.

the premium resources load about 40% of the time. would be great if that was more reliable.. seeing as i paid to use it 100% of the time
