He probably reached the limit of Australia's draconian bandwidth caps.

Leo running commentary! Been too long since the last one, man.

And Steel is probably right. He was saying he was about to go over the limit soon before his disappearance.

I know absolutely nothing about Bandwith Caps. Is this something that resets on a monthly basis? Will he have access again after March 1st? Does this mean he can't access the internet at all in the meantime, cause he DEFINITELY was on last night for a brief moment? Or, does it just mean he would just have to pay exobitant fees IF he goes over his limit?


If his internet is slowed then presumably he doesn't pay anything extra ones he gets over; the internet just becomes 56k speed or something around that. And it is monthly, but that doesn't mean it'll be fast again today as it goes by when the contract was signed rather than when the month officially begins and ends. Mine resets on the 10th each month for example.
