Besides: aceroms is about to get absolutely unusable these days. Yesterday, I had to do 7 bloody resumes with GetRight to get ONE file ... (it was a rare demo). People depending on AceRoms are utterly like victims recently...I almost feel compassion for them. |

What's with the "lately" in that post? Aceroms have been utterly unstable for a looong time.

Aceroms used to be a lot slow, but now they are facing severe server problems. Hope they solve all their problems and get back to the ususal roms availability... and sluguishness

Everyone should use IRC, much more reliable.
Queue system is excellent if you have one permanent internet connection. |

I disagree. Not if the queues are THAT CROWDED like they are usually. Have you ever had the pleasure to get ONE file from an IRC queue?
You're usually at range 50 or 40. And if someone at range 28 has a file 7 MB in size to download, the whole thing can take about 1 hour. 1 hour for *one* file to get. And you know how many "roms" there are. So don't try to tell me it's "convenient" to use IRC. It's a pain. ![]() |

Well, I don't like to get files on IRC, because I am using a dial-up connection. Get, say, the 40th position on a queue usually will mean that you'll have to wait a LOONG time to get your file, and it's just not worthy.
And if all users ahead of me are also on dial-up coonections, this means it will take even LOOONGERR. |
