Thats fine but theres a point when it becomes both personal and, for other readers, boring. Its what the pm system on most forums is used for. Frankly I don't really care what you say to each other behind a personal message system - it isn't my business - but I do OBJECT to putting up with this rubbish day in and day out.

Now can we PLEASE get back to hearing what others have to say about a way forward with this whole cap thing instead of all the technical nonsense. Don't forget there are lots of people on here who are not as technically minded as others and I for one would appreciate some common sense topical chat instead of the pages of cobblers served up recently

Thank you

No offence, but you yourself are publicly taking this thread well of topic, instead of reporting it privately to one of the CF Team.

Anyway-let's get back to the cap discussion.....

I couldn't agree more-it was me that decided to merge all cap discussions in one thread, & also all upgrade discussions into one thread, as I was sick of people just starting new threads all over the gaff.

I would also personally ban all cap/upgrade threads until there is actually something to discuss.....

Sorry if I was responsible for some of the rubbish you have been subjected to, my apologies.

I try not to be personal with my posting and try never to make a post that is a personal attack on another poster. I will look at what other posters are saying, think about it and respond if I think what has been posted is wrong in my opinion.

To be honest, the whole issue of caps has been done to death and there is very little that can be added to what has previously been said. I am surprised that anyone is actually bothering to look at the thread now. What common sense topical chat could be introduced into this thread to make it more acceptable?

Go on the Neil, it's your site - close the damn thread!!

Most of anti cap people will probably disapear from here once we get the new speeds "till later in 2005" anyway :p

jtwn · 04-03-2005, 17:58

As far as i can see, people talking about caps and the speed upgrade of ntl in the ntl forums is totally on-topic. After all these forums are for open discussion right?

As for banning the right to speak about it, what is this, some kind of nazi moderation? If you don't like it then why not just stay out of the threads? Are these boards for your own pleasure or for everybody?

I think it's a tad unfair that the mods and admin have to waste, oops sorry, spend their time modding threads about fruitless repetitve subjects such as the cap. Have you really nothing better to discuss than that?

I didn't realise moderating was meant to be fun. Considering that this is the biggest change to the end user one isp could do, i think its pretty important, yes.

It doesn't matter anyway. Looks like that 'battle' that has waged here
has been won, if that news in the other thread is true, looks like no capping for 2mb/3mb.
