I keep seeing this on my browser at SEN:
"I like to steal bandwidth. Yep, I'm an idiot. Can I have a cookie?"
What does that mean? I only have one window open and I get it. Once before I had the entire page as that.

Not sure about date, but I posted in "Post a Random Picture" a few minutes after it happened:
Attached Image
Here is the bottom of this page as I type this:
[attachmentid=10012]

So.. what is this?
All I have open is 1 SEN page, a folder, AutoStacker.htm, and BW if that helps.
I could understand if I had like 10 SEN pages I may get some thingy saying I like to steal bandwidth or something. (not sure what it means, so I may just be making myself look stupid)

Not in a specific topic, but everywhere.

Then I have no idea >.<

Maybe because you used all of your bandiwidth?

Try deleting some attachments.

Screwy... I've had 34 SEN pages open and didn't get that so it isn't what you have open.

Most I've ever had was 5... and with 2 I got the whole page like that, with 1 it had the bottom part.

I get it alot, and its getting annoying. Would me having SEN open too much have anything to do with it?

I doubt it. How much bandwidth have your attachments used? (file size * number of dls)
Report, edit, etc...Posted by O)FaRTy1billion on 2005-06-05 at 20:13:28
All of them...?
I post lots of small attachments with few downloads...
So should I go through all attachments I ever have put and calculate "Size*Downloads"?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by DT_Battlekruser on 2005-06-05 at 20:15:23
Yeah. If it runs gigabytes that might be it. But it probabally won't so I'm stumped. I bet Yoshi will know why.

ok, I'm off to calculate that...

Go to the Ask Yoshi topic.

Can't... I already got banned from the shoutbox for saying why...

Isn't there 1000 bytes in a kilobyte?
EDIT: Nevermind, I remember now. (duh) kilo=1000. ok back to adding them.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by chuiu on 2005-06-05 at 20:45:24
No there aren't 1000 bytes in a kilobyte. It works by 2's so there are 1024 bytes in a kilobyte.

Ok all done doing "#of downloads * size" for each one
Here a few of my file stats (some may be pointless, but whatever):
  • what DTBK wanted = approx. 324,746.8912 Kilobytes (I think I may have screwed up somewhere, but that is close enough)
  • Number of files = 99
  • Total File Size = 7.48mb (max 10mb)
  • Largest file = 715.48 with 0 downloads (put it this morning)
  • Smallest file = 247bytes with 4 downloads
  • File with most downloads = 211downloads (96.84k)
Thanks chu for the kilobyte thingy.

EDIT: Some of that may already be wrong from people dowloading, etc.
Also, you can convert that into Megabytes.

This is caused by you going to a site where they were leeching images, so it rewrote it into that. Thus, its still in your cache. All you have to do is Refresh or clear your cache and it will work.

Wow Yoshi basically fixed it in a second after all that calculating and work. What a waste of time. Haha.

Work? what work? I see no work?
All I did was go through with my calculator and do a list where I went to Page 1 of attachments, made a list like {downloads*filesize,downloads*filesize,etc} all the way to the bottom of page 1, did "sum(L1" (adds the numbers in the list) put that as the first number of a new list and went down the 2nd page. then did that untill page 7. Not that hard, plus I do nothing anyways.

Yoshi likes to do nasty things to people who steal SEN's images.
So when they do that, the "I like to steal bandwidth. Yep, I'm an idiot. Can I have a cookie?" message instead of the one they intended to steal. Your browser cached it, so it displays that instead of the 'correct' image. smile.gif

IE: Tools -> Internet Options -> Delete Files...
FF: Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Click 'clear' where it says Cache.

Thats why it fixes itself when I close the browser...
Everyone always complains "IE never deletes the Temporary Internet Files", mine does whenever I close it tongue.gif

Problem solved, I hope ermm.gif
