What do you by "network problem" ? Is it a message from the k2s site, from your provider ?

It was a cloudflare timeout but it's clear now. All good

Thankfully, none of the stuff we're downloading is really important, because even showing 200 kb/s speeds, the time needed to get a file is insane. Pull up a link. Est d/l time is 4 hours and change. Start downloading. Go to bed. Get up 6 hours later and the progress meter says time to completion is 1 hr 38 minutes. 3 hours later, it's finally complete.

True, but there are millions of examples where a great many small things all put together add up to a huge amount. Compound interest, seemingly insignificant bank card surcharge fees, incremental price rises, taxation, excise, shrinkflation etc. etc.

Yes you only get ~200kB/s, but try downloading 20 files simultaneously all at ~200kB/s and see how much work you have to put in keeping up with sorting and filing them as they all finish. It's a lot and you can't keep up. It's then you start wishing it would go slower than 200kB/s!

I decided to indulge myself into porn again after almost a three years hiatus and wanna catch up fast. therefore, I decided to buy premium membership for the first in my life for both k2s and FJ (or any other filehosts, for that matter), obviously the largest file size on the net.

However, as I attempted to buy premium acct for each one, they both seemed fishy. Remember, I am buying premium membership for the first time in my life and must add that they didn't seem 'safe and secure'.

The current premium members among you, could you guys enlighten me, help me through the process? Yes, I am literally asking the experienced ones out there to hold my hand while shopping.

Naturally, all sorts of help and advice on these two are most welcome.

Thank you

Sorry, not a Mod, but thought I could make a helpful suggestion.

I went to do the same thing on K2S and also thought it was extremely fishy. Changed my mind and plan to get FJ now. But I did see a wise recommendation to use a prepaid or gift credit card rather than a “real” one. I don’t want an ongoing sub, so limited funding on the card is good. Hope that’s some help.
