I am a TOTAL newbie   -   TOTAL

And in my first ramble I fell killing myself

When I appeared in the death realm it wasn't me  I was a Klyros instead of a Xacha
There was a large black character with a sword and a hammer in front of me - No detail just plain black
Then the programme crashed
When I tried to go back in it told me I was still logged in and to wait 30 seconds
After waiting when I tried to start my character the game simply crashes before starting

No chance to get a diagnostic
Total newbie anyway so still learning everything

I will start a new character but keep the old one Malecorn until I am told it is not needed

but uhm..
would i really have to leave it on overnight? augh i dunnos

It's not the be all and end all to leave it on overnight
It's just that sometimes you can get better speeds from different time zones when other parts of the world are awake
Also if you can leave it on 24 hours a day for a little after downloading you are helping everyone  :flowers:

As a total newbie at Planeshift
But a very seasoned user of Bittorrents I would like to add my weight to what has been advised

It WILL be slow at the beginning
Loads of people trying to leech from few seeds will give very slow download speeds

However as you get more completed Users and AS THEY SHOULD DO they leave their torrent client on to seed things will really speed up
I have downloaded a gigabyte in a couple of hours at best
However if people just grab and then turn their client off that just throws the whole idea of Bittorrenting out the window

The idea is SHARE
Leave your client on until you have at least a 1 to 1 ratio
That is you have seeded the amount of meg you have downloaded
Ideally do as much as you can

Two good clients that are easy to use are - as already mentioned - uTorrent
Another good one is Bit Tornado

So remember SHARE and everything will go well  \\o//
