Tdchewy Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I have lifetime membership for both launchbox and emumovies. There is absolutely no reason it should be going on 3 days now still downloading. Why? What did I pay for? I have PLENTY of bandwidth, so that's not the issue and I remember it taking forever that last time I did this a few years back. What's the deal? These are small mp3 and png files.

Retro808 Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 The reason may not be LB related. Your IP looks like you are in the US using Comcast. Perhaps this is the reason: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdchewy Posted December 25, 2020 Author Share Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) I appreciate the reply, but this cannot be the case as I mentioned, I did this a few years ago with the same result on a different ISP in a different state. Also, every other website/internet app works just fine. This is not the reason. The problem is not on my end. Edit: I'm trying on VPN now, will report back with results. Result: no difference. disappointed. thanks for trying to help Edited December 25, 2020 by Tdchewy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying it cannot possibly be a LB thing, but rarely do US residents suffer download issues from LB DB site that is not attributed to something on the users end. We have had Comcast reports and someone even had an issue with throttling from Tmobile internet. It helps on the LB end to know for sure the user tried known steps that helped other users. I would say if you are doing mass downloads uncheck the option for removing rough matches. This can make downloads slow since it compares each image.

Did I actually check? no, I love wasting my time and yours. Of course I checked (PIA VPN from Vancouver for the record), otherwise I wouldn't have said it. If this is a known issue, then it's on you guys to resolve the issue, not me. I'll have to deal with your "known issue". No other sites or downloads have this issue for me, so I am absolutely certain it's not on my end. You have even acknowledged that you are being throttled, not me. Either way, if there is no real solution, you can stop replying. Edited December 26, 2020 by Tdchewy clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I checked (PIA VPN from Vancouver for the record), otherwise I wouldn't have said it. I asked a simple question. I did not need any sarcastic response. I was polite in my responses trying to help. You did not say you did anything from the other post. All you simply said was "I appreciate the reply, but this cannot be the case as I mentioned,...". Nothing in your prior post said anything like "Thanks I did look at that and tried what they mentioned and it made no difference". Something like that would have been helpful. The user in that thread said VPN showed a speed difference it was a setting in his router that was causing the issue. I never said it is a known issue. I said "tried known steps". Did you check that setting he mentioned? Not sure why you have to have such a bad attitude to someone trying to help. So hopefully someone else is willing to try and help. I’m no longer willing.

I had stated that I had tried VPN as suggested, you responded with "did you really try it?" implying that I had lied for some reason, so yes I replied with sarcasm. I'm not here to argue. delete this thread if you like. I'll deal with the slowness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not here to argue. delete this thread if you like. I'll deal with the slowness Below is your exact quote...you did not say you "tried VPN as suggested" you did say "I did this"...Did what? You tried a year ago what the other user only discovered this year was his problem? The users fix was a Comcast modem setting. Not to try VPN. Like I said you did not provide anything you actually tried. If you would have just stated with more clarity and less attitude it would probably been more helpful. You are arguing and being rude about things when people are trying to help and being polite about it. Not once did I speak down to you or even speak negatively of you. I asked a simple question of you to confirm if you actually changed the modem setting change. So on your request I will lock this thread. It will not get deleted as it is useful information for all to see.
