I'm curious what kind of connection you guys are using.

I'm on a cable modem.

I'm wondering if many users would use a "Lite" version of this site if I make one. Lots of graphics will be removed and extra text will be removed.

If I make a Lite version for dial-up users, I can increase the avatar limits on the normal version for people.

I want ADSL 2- or fibre optic. E1 lines are far too expensive. My modem supports ADSL 2, up to 24mbps.

Caaaaable! Omg, we had dial up before this, and I was only allowed to use internet after 7pm.. because it wasn't so expensive. So I wined and wined, and we got cable! YAY!

Broadband, 512Kb/s. We were meant to be getting upgraded to the 1 meg thing, but AOL eventually decided that you can't get it where we are, even though my brother has a friend who's had it for two years or so and lives about 10 minutes away, Meh.
