Thats big. Im downloading it now. Luckely, I have DSL..... slow, but its still dsl.
I started it about 1 min ago and have 12mb done. It says 5 hours left at 500kbps.... not 5000 kb/s, kbps.

I have no idea what that is in kb.

(Kbps-= kilobits per second
Kb/s-= Kilobytes per second)

What kind of game is this, anyhow?

Kazer0 · Post by **Kazer0** » Sat Feb 08, 2003 8:21 pm

online RPG... costs 10-12$ a month.

Speaking of Online RPG's, how much does Ultima Online cost?

I saw the game in Wal Mart. It looks awesome, but it requires a better video card than I have, I think.

it requires better everything than i have.... so did c&c: renegade, but it works with the graphics set down.

actually, K0, KBps stands for kilobytes/sec, see, the capital B.

guys (and Kazer0), could you please alert everyone that i'm not gonna be posting in the forum anymore. neopets is taking over my life. i'm sorry. goodbye.

Kazer0 · Post by **Kazer0** » Sun Feb 16, 2003 4:29 pm

actually, no, kBps is the same as Kbps and is still kilobits not kilobytes. KB/s is kilobytes.

That's shameful. You didn't ditch us for Africa, but you did for neopets....

I notice the "Crystal Caves" avatar. Yes. Welcome, stay a while. We could use more active members here. Welcome, welcome.

im not going for it. Its just gunna be that I get there first, Im not trying to get posts so that I have 1000.

Thunderdog · Post by **Thunderdog** » Mon Feb 17, 2003 5:03 pm

You may be a bit disappointed, K0. I was looking through the Images, and there was no new rank images.

Kazer0 · Post by **Kazer0** » Mon Feb 17, 2003 5:08 pm

Really? Well me and you will be special with no rank images. Like member guests.

thanks

i'm quite proud of my avatar, i drew it myself. if so it can be called. but it's an exact copy of mylo (only, the light is from his shooting sprites and the rest from his standing sprites).
