I cant belive it.......

Today ive been looking at ADSL in my area to see exactly how long it would take to come to my area. Guess what i found....... ADSL at the moment will NEVER!!! be comeing to my area.

BT have a system where enough people have to register intrest before they install the equipment in the local exchange. There is also another stage before this.

Im on the stage before the 'registerd intrest' stage. They need 200 people to be intrested b4 they start even 'thinking' about upgradeing my exchange. My area has 98 people registerd..... In my village alone there are well over 5000 people. And this is for a whole area.

HOW CAN I BE THIS DAMN UNLUCKY!!!!!!
Every single person that lives in my area must be like 99years old and not even know what a computer is.

What really REALLY takes the piss is that in one month my m8 that lives down the road (4 miles awey) is getting ADSL.

IM SERIOUSLY FUCKED OFF!!!!

NEVER LIVE IN A VILLAGE!!!! thats all i can say :(

satelite conection costs alot tho

It costs so much its not even worth thinking about. + its worse than BB. (if its thundering etc etc). Atmospheric interfirence seriously effects the sending and reciveing of info :(

I know its not fair hun but u own me in PvP and I'm on BB ur pc makes up for your lack of connection - trust me I am an angel afterall ;)

My PC is total shit :(. My dads PC is :hail: god :hail: . I dont have EI installed on that yet tho :(. + im not allowed to so im screwed there.

The only reason i owned almost everyone at PvP in mir2 was coz it dident require much of a connection to be speedy. EI sends and recives ALLOT more thus makeing it hard to play on a 56k / 64k.

All this results in me :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

*hugs keres* (*fluffle*)
