  1. I don't particularly mind the bandwidth limit. that's fine. And go ahead and remind me that the download is gonna take a bit, that's fine, I'm an adult, I can be patient and wait it out, but I just find it mildly annoying that instead of the click download begin downloadIt's now become: Click download Page refreshes, reloads self to take me to download page for mod Click "Slow download," Reminding me of a skeevy, "download free now" site where they hide the actual download link next to 5 fake advertisements disguised as a download button and shaming me for having the AUDACITY to not throw my cash at them needlessly Wait 5 seconds for the download to ready itself Download all 3 megabytes of my file, a download that takes only 1.7 seconds at best.I would understand throwing a 5 second wait on a file that's large enough to sufficiently disturb the servers, enough so that they need to do... Whatever server mumbo jumbo one would need to wait 5 additional seconds for, but... really? Like... Genuinely? On a file where the download itself takes less than half the time of the wait for the file itself to begin downloading? It just seems like they're really just begging me to get premium at this point, and I'll be honest, while I'm sure it will come a day where I end up purchasing a lifetime package, I've got to say, inconveniencing people is seriously not a good way to win them over, if anything, it's a fast-track to losing people, not gaining. Quite a few people would just find it much easier to move to a smaller, more user-friendly site than to deal with dumb stuff like this, especially in a modder's scene, where, let me be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if someone is currently in the works of making some sort of utility that just outright skips the whole URL side of it and just rips the files for the user en masse. Just my two cents, really.
