There are too many moving parts for there to be perfect service

You can determine that your browsers extensions / add-ons are/arent interfering with the hosts
easily enough in firefox - open browser in safe mode

Anyone whose been around for the past decade knows all imagehosts have been detiorating in performance because of the increased volume of uploading/downloading to/from them - not just us but 1000s of forums / blogs/ websites

The one thing you wont see is how many successful downloads are being made from a single server some of us cant access at that moment in time.

People will get locked out of individual servers because there is too much demand on it.

Filehosts have had this policy in place for years imagehosts are just catching up as the use of download managers increases

Some even banning / blocking individuals because of excessive bandwidth usage
on accounts (imagevenue)

Its not just hosts but 3rd party sites like Fuskator where excessive bandwidth consumption has gotten downloaders banned via their IP address

This appears to be those downloading massive amounts - site ripping in other words
Right after they banned the most recent the person banned started a DDOS attack and they closed down for several days - that type of behaviour will only mean there is less bandwidth for the rest of us

Its probably a lesson for any of us that downloading too much too quickly has a direct impact on a hosts accessibility not to mention viability
