Alrighty, I sent in another Email to Griffinrun to find some answers about the problems with the FTP. Lets see how long before they reply and what their answer will or even if they have an answer. Here's the Email..
FTP Question to GriffinRun

Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
Are you sure you're ready for another month of aggrevation and dispair. Remember what happened the last time you were ready to dump the server and leave me stuck with your misfits. Besides I don't think you have anymore hair on your head to pull out. 
Hey, I like to know why they limit the speeds to their Freaking FTP's. Anyway they probably won't reply back to the email because they SUCK
Shouldnt be a problem soon, hopefully the new server I just ordered in NY will kicks the GR ones ASS!
In the continuing SAGA to find out why GriffinRun SUCKS for FTP. Here's my reply, his answer, and my new reply.
Does this guy even *read* your emails? It doesn't appear to be the case. Paraphrase of your emails:
Q: Hey server-guy, I'm getting crappy d/l speeds, shouldn't it be such-and-such?
A: Yes, it should be the such-and-such speed.
Q: Um, then can you freakin' fix it?
A: .........

I figured out the Redirect Problem. They messed up the UT2004.ini file. It should be working now.
Yo Taz,
Just remember that your port is 5360 and not 5320. I don't want them accidently shutting me down when they get fed up with you messing with them. Aight!
But it makes sense to me tho. By limiting the amount of traffic to the redirect you increase the amount of bandwidth allocated to the game servers. You have to understand that eventhough you have separate computers for the game and redirect they still have to share the same network so by limiting how much bandwidth you have on one you have that much more headroom on the other. I know that it may sound fk-up, especially since some of the other server companies don't do this, but that's the makes the difference between our 20 pings and another server company with pings in the 40s, 60s, 70s all coming out of the same area in NY.

Woohoo finally an answer that makes sense! Its about time they got their heads out of theirs arses!
