Now, now, children, your uncle DethPotato is here to tell you to be nice to each other regardless of each others' opinions. He is also coming here to tell you to either make a new thread regarding this topic, or get back on the main topic of this thread. Or, you could slightly change the topic of this thread so that your current discussion fits.
Everyone has seen the very numerous threads bashing the various features of 1.9, Notch, Mojang, etc. Can we turn down the hating? Just a little bit? Sure, everyone may not be pleased with enchanting, or potions, but really, is it at all realistic to expect that Notch will undo his work from the past several weeks and take these features out? One, that would infuriate far more players than it might pacify, and two, something like that is completely unprecedented in a game as popular as Minecraft. Complete feature removal? Forget about it. Nobody is forcing you to use enchantments and potions.
.
Adding an XP bar does NOT, I repeat NOT turn Minecraft into an RPG. An RPG, to quote the dictionary, is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting and take those characters through a structured narrative or structured decision making.
.
Fantasy elements are often found in RPGs, but the reverse is NOT true. Fantasy != RPG. XP bar + minor fantasy elements does not and WILL NEVER equal an RPG in Minecraft, since Minecraft is completely devoid of a plot whatsoever.
.
Finally, at the end of the day, you have to give Notch and Mojang some credit for what they have accomplished. Minecraft has over 3 million users. If Mojang was making bad gameplay decisions, why is Minecraft one of the most popular video games of all time? Because Mojang knows what they are doing. The success of Minecraft is testament to it.
.
tl;dr: If you cannot come up with a completely valid reason for claiming that 1.9 ruins Minecraft, please keep your mouth shut.
A download speed of 40 Kb/s is faster than 18% of the US?
Also, I just tried cleaning up my PC with that scan they advertised on the speedtest site. It gave me about 3800 errors, and since the trial only fixes 25 errors I had to... uhh... you know.
Anyway, after fixing those errors the download speed went up by another 5 Mb/s to around 97.3 while the upload stayed at 20.5. Not a huge difference.
Well the thing is 15% of america doesn't have internet connection so technically its 3% :biggrin.gif:

Maybe. I found the topic name a bit misleading though, I thought this would be an advert topic.
Anyway:
Is this good or is this good?
And I don't even live close to Tampere, where the test was located. (EDIT: Just noticed you can see that in the test results too.)
You are in a campus. That explains the download/upload speed. Campus' usually buy/have a whole pile of bandwidth and separate that amongst the students/residents there. Your not actually getting those speeds, only a fraction of that.
Oh and mine is something like
5 mb download (roughly) and 0.65 mb upload
Slow as always...
So about average?
Edit: *facepalm*... missed the "Faster than 78%"

Meh. That's all I have to say.
Around 250mbps for my USA VPS.
Roughly 50mbps (to the USA) for my Paris VPS.
Not bad.

My computer sucks :tongue.gif:
Not the best, but hey.. I don't even pay for intrenats. lol
Damn you forum only allowing two lines in the signature.
- Thank you slimes.
Download speed is Belgium is good but upload is lower because they don't want us to host files or something similar. :dry.gif:
Not too bad.
Ah, Embarq at it's finest.
I suppose it's acceptable, but sometimes you just wonder, you know?
Meh My upload sucks!
Add me and we can play pc
And there is mine.
