Has it occurred to anyone that you can download two things at a time from this site using Firefox?

Has it occured to anyone that Dennis puts the 1 file at a time limit there to make it fair for all users and because he pays for his bandwith out of his own pocket and that when you bypass the 1 file at a time limit, you are increasing the amount of money he has to pay?

Doing so makes you an weak mined selfish cheat that has no thoughts for others. The limit of 1 at a time is there to make it fair for everyone to share the limited bandwidth we have allotted for this website. When you bypass that limit, and I know you can, you are stealing a piece of my gift to everyone from all other users. Make no mistake; this website is a gift to the Halo CE community and it cost me money to run and operate – quite a bit of money. The ads on the website help pay for some of it but not all. People who bypass the 1 at a time limit are small minded childish misanthropes with no empathy or thoughts for others. Basically I consider them ass-wipes of the lowest magnitude not fit to lick the snot from the tissues of the other members of the community.

I placed the one at a time system there not as a hard fast impenetrable rule but as a reminder to keep basically honest people honest. Yes, it can be gotten around since there is more than one download server however each server is hard coded to only allow 1 download thread per IP.

You may not have realized it yet but the world does not revolve around you and not all people put up barriers to you for no reason. In this case the download barrier is so that everyone gets equal and fair access to my gift to the community.
