Don't think I need to explain anything and stand by what I said. The fact that silly claim is recycled here does more harm than good - Don't remember stating you posted it as a news item, but if my memory is that bad you can always ban me again.

I think he means that google will be picking up the Subject of this thread, which unfortunately names Pulse8, plus each individual post is picked up as you know.

On the other hand if anyone does find this thread, as long as they read it they will come to the same conclusion - the ISPreview article is (at heart) bunkum.

In a very wishy-washy sort of way they say so themselves after throwing the mushroom compost at the fan. This thread pretty well proves the point.

Exactly Bob. Everything posted on the web might as well be carved in stone. As you say, OK if everybody that drops by reads the whole thread, but many will not. As those that throw accusations in all walks of life, they know some of the mud sticks. I really cannot work out the reason for the post, other than to spite a provider that is gaining customers at the expense of those that lock folks into a contract.

Whether or not tt are fiddling with traffic they wrote an article based on a single sample source, seems jumping the gun a bit.

Thank you for the clarification it is nice when things are nice and clear cut.

The original poster made no claims about accuracy and part of the public Internet is to allow discussion. Its original purpose was the sharing of scientific work and while not scientific levels of investigation are going on in this thread, people are free to debate and arrive at a variety of conclusions.

If anyone mentioned in the original post feels aggrieved and the post violates any site rules they are free to report it.

I posted this link for discussion purposes only as I also did not believe what ispreview have said in their 'review' as for me pulse8 have been exemplary in their support and the speeds are the same 24/7 no matter if it's single or multi-threaded.

I do hope that anyone who stumbles across this thread takes the time to read through the posts and also to read the comments made by skilty and others on ispreview and will make a decision based on that to not always believe what is written on the internet.

My purpose was never to rubbish the reputation of pulse8 before anyone thinks that.
