Obviously a 30% cut back does not mean a cut back to you. If your employer would cut back 30% of your salary, would you also see it as no change ?
If I recall correctly from a previous post, you stated you cutback from 600gb the month you got warned, to 450gb the month you got canned.

And you have an argument??

600? Geez dude, this is getting rather silly!

What was that number?
500.
You trashed 500GB in a month cut 30% which means you did another 350 the following month?

OMG!
This was in the THIRD month as a Earthlink customer. As we see people with 800 GB usage, 350 is not that bad, it is only 18% of the theoretical throughput of the line.

Really ? So a 30% cut in usage is nothing, but a 30% cut in salary means something.
You can't relate a 30% cut back with someone's salary. Now if you would relate it to cutting back comp time or OT for hourly workers, you would be more accurate. Even in those situations, cutting back excessive overage with comp time or OT is understandable.

I said 500, not 600 which is what Terry said. While you seem to like big numbers, you may believe I downloaded 1000 terabytes, it does not make a difference in the argument.

Suppose your transfers the month before were more than 30% above the limit? then the 30% cut was not enough.
or suppose they saw your attempt to switch to earthlink (provided by comcast) as an attempt to avoid the limit. either way they have the right to refuse service to anyone.
in this case they can document your overage, the warning, and your attempt to go around the penalty.
I only assumed you were aggressive/argumentative because of your demeanor here.
while the FCC can/has recently made decisions on a whim, in most cases you could grow to be a very old man waiting for definitive actions to benifit your case.
good luck with that.

See my previous post.
Even at 500GB and cutting 30%(as you said) that puts you at 350GB. Well over the established *Inviso-Cap*.

LOL!
Which is why was difficult to comply with an undisclosed "inviso-cap". That is whay I asked for a number. Not something that would be argumentative.

Thank you for the wishes. The FCC did not act on a "whim", but on well documented evidence against abusive behaviour.

I asked for the number of the limit so I would comply with it. I would not call that argumentative.

If you are told you were driving too fast, the natural question is to ask what the speed limit is so one could comply. I do not think you would get arrested for that.

I notice that you focused on one particular line in tshirt See Profile 's post. How about addressing the rest of his post.

The OP has two bandwidth limits topics open. I am closing this one because it is becoming a rather personal tit for tat. Please find a private chat room for such conversations. They do get old for those not involved and we need to keep the forum useful for the majority.

The established rules on starting bandwidth limits threads:

1. Only one open at a time.
2. If you don't get moderator approval to start a new one, please don't be surprised if it disappears.

The current open (unapproved) bandwidth limits topic is here ---> »[POLL] Do you agree with Comcast's new AUP ?

Take the poll with a grain of salt since any member can vote, not only Comcast customers.
