I want to download tarquin pack's, get redirected into the waiting line... user 600 of 800 waiting, estimated waiting time untill download: 30 minutes.

I gotta wait for 30 minutes to download a few k's which will only take me a few seconds orso :(

Np mate.

I already though something was wrong with fileplanet, normally I have to wait a max of 4 minutes, and now all of a sudden it's 51 minutes? :mad:

I seem to get along okay with FP, but I use it around morning / early afternoon GMT when it's quieter.

Can anyone recommend a good site where I can post a mirror of my packs? I've had a few emails form people with similar problems.

Yeah, filePlanet gets on my nerves too. The thing that really gets me mad is when there is a 40 minute wait and I walk off to do something and then when I come back I've missed my chance (after you wait an insane amount of time and the screen comes up to start your download you only have a short period of time to do so or else you get kicked to the back of the line again and have to do the whole sorry thing again). I wish FilePlanet wasn't directly involved w/ gamespy & PU. Sometimes I can't find anywhere else to get the files talked about here on PU.

Cheers. FilePlanet is only doing it so people will buy it's new personal line.

probably, but it's pretty stupid. those files are available from so many other FREE places.

why buy turds when you can make your own
