I just spent 3 hours trying my best to get Rockman Zero 2 on Mirc..... My first problem being my nephew deleted Mirc off the computer, not a problem, still had the instalation file on my hard drive.
Now being the kind of person who HATES Mirc I hardly use it, but when a rom comes out that I can't find on a site, I generally end up on it ( I've used it once since Gbatemp changed from a forum/rom site to a forum... Really hated it and vowed to only use it as a last resort) I can easily find roms in general and Dl them from site (which I prefer) but this one wasn't turnign up anywhere...
I had to find Kivan's Mirc for newbies again (which took a while, it used to be easy to find, but if you haven't seen it since it was up on the Front page 5 months ago, then you can easily lose it) as I've hardly ever used Mirc and so I could remember what I had to type to find what i was looking for.
Everythings running smooth, get on Mirc find the server, find #Gbatemp and start looking for Rockman Zero 2... Find it all over the place.
Then the fun starts...
While trying to type in the name of the rom, time runs out, so I try copying the name and pasting it, but everyone seems to cutomise the names for the roms making it harder and harder. Then you have to wait in line ( I have no problem doing that..I expected it)
After about 30 mintues of waiting, I get the message that I can now dl it. I click acept then it sits there for 2 mintues before telling me it didn't connect.
Try again...And again....
Get it working, it's Dling..... Then it stops after 3%....
try again...and again....
Look for other people who have it...
End up on 2 waiting lists, one goes the other a back up incase the first one stops... It gets to 5% then the other pop up comes up saying I can dl it. The first one freezes, the second one won't connect and there I am again.
I closes Mirc, went and took a break...
Came back on tried again, got it working 7% into it stops again, and I'm reading a message that says it's not dling fast enough...by a fraction of a second...........
Why am I ranting?
All the while this is going on there are a bunch of people typing about (sorry if this offends and one, but thisis what they where talking about)
person 1: I like penis
person 2: I like fat men
person 1: can I suck your penis
person 2: no I hate you, I want pictures of naked boys....
etc
etc
etc
etc
etc
All I wanted was to Dl Rockman, and it seems to be more trouble then it's worth. I came close to buying an import copy but I can't afford it. I'm sorry if this topic is in the wrong place, and I'm sorry if this is more of a rant then anything else, but I had to let some steam off and just wonder why I'm such a lowly moron I can't get one simple thing to work without nearly bashing my head into a wall....
