Happily I can voice my distaste at your d/l limits and gain my extra d/l's per day all at the same time. Not sure if that's a win win or not?

Subsim currently has more than 76,000 registered members, and recieved more than 9,000 visits in the last 24 hours. How many of those posted something, and how many downloaded something? I'm not sure how much it costs just to maintain the servers for those 24 hours, but the last time we had a fund drive we faced the problem of possibly having to close the download section for lack of funds. If you haven't donated then somebody else is paying for your "free" downloads. We don't ask that you pay, and we don't have a donation requirement for downloads. All we ask is that you give back a little time to the community. If that's too much to ask, then would you prefer that we started charging for downloads? How much more would you complain then?
Or would it be better if the Downloads section was just closed?
