View Full Version : Out of curiousity
Everyone post where (city (state) and country) they are posting from and about how long it takes them to load a page on zoklet.net (or bbs.zoklet.net). I'm interested in how bad my latency and upload rates are. As it turns out, serving up html is a pretty good benchmark for both.
Edit: For me, it's near instantaneous because I'm in the same room as zoklet.net.
it loads pretty quick for me. A lot of my connection speed relies on time of day and how many others in the apartment building are using the net, but usually, it loads as fast as any other page would, which is pretty quickly.

Tarpon Sprigns, Florida, United States. My posts maybe come up a second later. It's pretty quick but not as quick as some other fourms for me. It really varies, it can be slow or really fast.
One or two seconds.

The General
06-29-2009, 11:23 PM
well he hasn't got a job yet, he's going to hopefully be the CEO of that bigass factory up there that is just sitting. idk if you know the guy who bought it but his name was steve shullman or something like that. It would be a huge job for him and most likely I would spend a decent amount of time up there.
lol how old are you?

See, I mentioned it in the OPEN sections of the forum just now. At the time of that whole thing, I had only posted it in M&A, therefore, it was privileged. Besides, that was the work of a rogue mod trying to organize criminal activity. Also, odds are, if anyone from this forum tried to find me based on the leaked info, you'd have a hell of a time, as I control the only route in and out of my property, and GPS units and Google Maps don't accurately show my location due to poor surveying, and lack of good GPS signal out here

I'm aware of this, however, like I said, GPS can't see out here, Google Maps is painfully inaccurate when it comes to locating my house, and I control the access to my property. I see them coming before they see me, and my home is far off the paved path.
EDIT: Digital Cell Signals can't see out here either, analog only.

I never posted it, it would appear that the leaker resolved my address from just my name and my hometown. I'm not entirely sure where my LAST name came into play, as I never posted it, but at some point, my last name got out, from there, they were able to use my name and hometown to resolve an address from any number of search engines that do just that.
