Vote - A little idea !
 
O.K. - If you have read the thread here - http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=9745

You will have some idea of what I want to do..

I think this could be a great idea and would solve all our proxy problems and before anyone posts anything I know that we should not have to pay extra and that NTL should sort out there crapy proxy servers.

I would like to see who would be interested in this idea.. I know I will !!!

This will be a nice fast proxy with no poxy cache and payment will most likely be by paypal. If you are intersted then please say so but only if you are sure. Its not fair on KP if half of the people duck out at the last moment. I am waiting for KP to get some prices but the price depends on the ammount of people that will use the proxy..

All the tech details can be sorted later... All I would ask is that people dont take the mick with this. If you are planning on downloading gb's of data 24/7 then you wont be welcome. There wont be a cap but doing this will be unfair to the other users of the service...

Cast your votes guys.

Need your votes on this one guys... If we can get an idea of numbers then we can get a price ! The more people the cheaper it will be !

Unreliable proxies is irritating, but not nearly so much that I would pay for an alternative. I have always found that switching between ntl proxies is enough to solve any temporary browsing problems I might have. Besides, I'm already paying extra for a reliable email service thanks to ntl's shoddy service, so I'm reluctant to shell out any more.

Fair enough.... If we can get enough people intersted then it could be as low as couple of quid a month....

Is it the price or the priciple thats the problem ?

I must admit.. I've not had any connection issues for a while now. So I doubt I'll be changing anything.

Perhaps a parallel poll should be run -

If you answered yes depending on price, what would you be prepared to pay.
£12 / year
£18 / year
£24 / year
£36 / year
anything to get rid of the damn NTL proxy?

Its you bag so if you want to run with it...

I think a bit of both tbh - plus for me, as I said, the problem just isn't serious enough :)
