DL Limits I just joined two sites , onlycuties and infocusgirl, both are severely awsome sites with pretty girls and nice HD. But the sites are DL limited badly, even talking with support they say umm ya thats right. So my question to the forum is what possible benifit would any member get to join a DL limited site? I know why the site owners do it, but why would we join such sites if we cant downloads anything without lots of work>? Since 2007 | |

My connection must be extremely slow, as I've never hit a download limit. But just wondering what size is the download limit? With today's download speeds, I understand why they do it. But would rather join a site and pay per KB downloaded or have a download limit? | |

I guess I should specify when I say limit sorry about that, the site only ( according to their support ) allows three connection, but I can only get one at a time. Since 2007 | |

Now I gotcha. I do agree I also hate that. I've only been to a couple sites that had that. Anymore I don't pay much attention, as normally going 1 at a time gets it done alot faster for me anyway. | |

Download Limits are a real evil - but Connection Limits I have no problem with. So you have to leave your computer running overnight, meh, whatever. I don't see it as a huge inconvenience. Not every site can have 20 dedicated servers. Now, limiting how much I can download per month, that can get annoying fast. "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!"

I think limits either way are pretty annoying. But I agree with Toadsith on the idea that limits per hour, day, month or whatever are much more intrusive than limiting the number of connections. In Cybertoad's defense, I believe a site should offer more than one connection though. At least allow us to browse the site while a file is downloading. Granted it is not 100% neccissary to allow us to use 45 connection (done this before), it is nice to at least be able to move about the site and queue up more stuff while downloading. The Sweet Members network was like this. You could download all day and night, even use a manager so long as you were using one connection at a time and no browsing while downloading. Of course if you where to impatient to wait for the current download to finish and wanted to browse now you would have to start the download over if you paused it. No download resuming there. Digital Desire limits the connections, but in a strange way. At first you can download about 10 at a time, then it drops down to 4 and sometimes 3 and stays there until you stop downloading for a while. GlamorModelsGoneBad had a limit of five connection and if you broke it you had to wait until the next day to start downloading again. Reality Kings limits you to 15 big movies per day which is worse than a monthly limit. This sucks because there is no such thing as "roll-over" movies. So use them or lose them. Abby Winters does actually have a limit but it is less notable. The kick you off all together if you download more content than what is on the site. In other words, you cant download all the WMVs and decide to come back for he MPEGs for example (I can not actually remember of hand what file types they offered). This is bad because you have to watch this site for repeated posts. if you follow the site through a chronological order you will see a movie on a page and a few weeks later on the site see a page with the same movie plus another part of the movie on the same page, or the addition of more photos. In the end if you are not careful it is very easy to end up downloading the sane stuff twice a few times, thus eventually putting you over their limit.

I'm with Toadsith and badandy in that I prefer having a limit put on the amount of connections I can have opened rather then the amount I'm allowed to download in a fixed period. I appreciate a site that has no limitation, but like most good things in life, they aren't free. If a site chooses to have limitations, but in return offer a superior product at a lower cost because of server savings then why complain? Long live the Brown Coats. | |

Yeah, DL limits is one thing that really puts me off joining a site. I was thinking of joining the "All Reality Pass" group of sites but was put off because of the download limits. I have only a limited amount of time to be able to download. Sometimes I cannot find the time to even get online, so some days I cannot download at all. Their limit of allowing 6 movies a day is the reason I have not joined. The worst thing is when you don't find out about the limits until you join. This is as annoynig as having to untick the extra site boxes when you sign up. I just HATE being conned, or someone trying to con me. It totally puts me off a site that I am thinking of joining. That's the thing I love about this site - you get to read about a lot of the really important small print, or tricks these people try out before you sign up. The information available here is very important and very informative. It really helps towards improving quality on adult sites. | |

AH yes,Download Resuming is definitely very important - I forgot to mention that. Even with just one connection per IP, we should be able to pause and resume our downloads at our leisure. "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!" Second Grand Order Poobah in the Loyal Order of the Water Buffalo | |

Well , I do not think I am being 100% clear. Its a chore and a half to even allow two connections. That means I can download one file and cant use the site until done. So nope can not leave it running all night,wish I could it fails. As the urls seem to change. Can only click one file then i'm done until it is . Oh well I am working on a work around. Cybertoad.

If the site allows two connections, just configure your manager to use only one connection and download only one file at a time and you should be able to browse around and queue up files at leisure. However, if it only allows one connection then you'll have to add each file, pause it, and then continue browsing, and then when you are finished browsing, tell the manager to start downloading and walk away. That is a pain-in-the-ass, but I've done it on many sites. I think Teens From Tokyo required me to do this. "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!"

When I joined Amature Allure this happened. They have a DL limit of 4GB/day, with a maximum of two connections. I like the content of the site, so that lessens the irritation. Kinky | Inky | Pinky | Stinky <><><> Give em to me Hotter than Fire <><><> | |

I agree. In todays day and age, with the size of the files, the least a site could do is allow resuming. Especially if they are gonna put a connection or download limit on you. | |

I know one thing for sure....the hard drive industry does not like download limits either. They want us downloading all day long!
