Title: Uncapping Modems
Post by: Beowulf on March 23, 2003, 04:35:23 PM
Anyone know of any really good sites that will tell you how to cpmpletely uncap your modem. I know that you can get tweaks and shit, but i am looking for the maximum bandwidth possible.

Uncapping is like stealing, actually it is stealing but hey, go along for the scenario. You uncap your modem once, you don't get caught. You think, "Hey, this is great shit." You do it again, and just skimp past the heat. Now that one was close, but do you stop? Nooo, of course not. The the third time, they trace you and send a police officer to your house with a warrant, a citation, and order you to turn over your system. Then after a short jail sentence and small $10,000 fine they put you on probation where you aren't allowed to touch a computer, or the intarweb for any reason. Are you ready to risk all that trouble just to download porn and stolen music in a matter of seconds?

He doesn't want the common sense answer, he wants the (im)practical answer.

Understandable. Practical answers aren't my strong suit, so I'll leave it up to you Lacerda... :P

if i wanted a lecture from someone about consequences, i would've called the ISP. There's no point in posting to act like a badass and putting the fear of god in my eyes. I didn't ask for what could happen.

Why bother asking if you know it's illegal. You should know that we wouldn't help your cause.

Man...am I ever bored...3 posts in one day... :P

I'm guessing that he's like other souls who think we're a source for obtaining illegal information and/or tips and tricks. Again, we're not. Try some 'technical' website if you really must.

I don't encourage it, but use google to find that type of stuff.  It's the internet, a good search engine and/or knowledge of boolean operators can find you anything.

I never said that you said that you wouldn't. Having said that, I say the hell with saying what everyone else said unless saying what you said is also saying what I said, but it isn't since you said something other than what I said. Right?

Right.... and i'm not going to argue or make any sort of counterpoint because i had to read your point a couple of times so i wasn't so confused by it, but i see what you're sayin'

Do you think that I think that you confused me by making me think you think that I don't think I know what the fuck I just said?

What's this all about?

People come here for entertainment. This is a site for entertainement. You came to the wrong place with your question. You screwed up. Yet when you don't get the help you wanted you think everyone here is stupid. You're welcome to stick around if you whish, we like to have new members over. But you have to understand what this site is about. If you are not interested in becoming a member of this comunity then perhaps you should go somewhere else. But if you choose to stick around, I recommend a new attitude.

I screwed up? lmao. I never said anyone was stupid in this online "comunity", but the fact that the sarcasm to maintain humor and mockery from some is deteriorating to this "entertainment".

Consider this my last post. Hope you all have fun wasting time on these forums, for the sense of humor that you deem entertaining.

Does this mean you want to stop fucking leeching your avatar from MY webserver for use on other forums that you post on? I can glady change that image to something that you don't want, if you'd like.

The only reason I'm replying is because I am replying to chris. It's the least I owe him for using bandwidth (since i hit the site 100's of times/mo.)  Yes you can delete that avatar. As a matter of fact I'll save you the trouble and delete it for you. Hell, delete my acct.

I'm beginning to get annoyed...

Who do you think you are to come in here with some stupid-ass question, not get the replies you were hoping for, you 1337 h4x0r, then assume we're all idiots and start insulting our humour? You're a n00b, and you have little or no right to "poke fun" at our little "sarcasm". What's more, you then began leeching Chris's avatar for use on ANOTHER forum. God, what an idiot...

It'd probably be better if you just left. Unless you want Chris to MANUALLY have to click the "Ban" button himself, I'd suggest turning off your computer, and putting your head through it. Good day to you..."Sir".
