Your first experince on dling vids on JW
 
or better when you realized that you cannot find damn "DOWNLOAD" button :lol:

See, I saw on the main page 512 TG test with Tiff, on the page with vid were replys of people how great that vid is and I was desperate....
I was sitting clicking on every little line, word, wallpaper... anything. Then stopped and said AM I SOOOOO F**KIN DUMB OR WHAT THAT I CANNOT SEE IT!!!!!!!????????? :lol:

Then I red some topics and found a guy from czech and asked him thru PM. He was kind to explained me how to and whats it all about :)

What I got access later I was in heaven, so many vids, dont know wich to start with :P and then came telephone bill(ISDN at that time) for 640€ :shock: :lol:

Now I dont come here vor vids, there is much better stuff than that :wink:


Whats your experince of Jabbas joke? I am sure there will be more stories to have a good laugh :D

I remember that I desperatly wanted the 288 GTO vid.....It was driving me nuts, so I clicked everything possible on the site......

I checked around a bit and soon found out, what's the deal.....

At first I was like: there's no way I will post just to dl vids and I just visited
the site every now and then. No posting...

Then, early 04 I started posting, because of the comunity and the people.....not for the vids......

I found the "what you saw today" section and thought I also could deliver some "goods"......

and then the site sucked me in.......

If I remember corectly, I got the green light from Jabba and TT somewhere around october...not sure. I know it also had to do with the black 355 I took pictures off

First week or so, I was downloading constantly......

That's what Nuno is doing these days....probably :wink:

Hehe, correct. :D

But at first I didn't even know about the videos, only realised when I started to read older posts and stuff... And now, they're just a bonus. :D


So, if you're reading this and don't post here 'cause you just want the videos, come on in, you won't regret it. :P

That is fucking nuts. Did you pay for it, or did you try to get out of it? :shock: Fortunately I don't have a download/upload limit on my cable. :phew:


I don't really have a special JW experience since I've been on this site ever since it started. As for downloading...I haven't even downloaded much lately. But that hasn't kept me from coming back. It's not why I came here in the first place. I'm here for the community mostly. The vids are just a nice bonus. :mrgreen: 8)

ARMAN 03-14-2005 09:45 AM

Cant wait for "bonus" 2005 TG and 5G vids :mrgreen:

@BADMIHAI - I spend it, I pay it :) Now I pay 50€ for unlimited data and speed up to ~1,04 MB/s, average speed 500-700kb/s :mrgreen:

possessed_beaver 03-14-2005 10:16 AM

lol, now that was SOME time ago :).

I still remeber that because I know jabba started launching JW with some amazing videos. If I'm not mistaken it was one of the Jeremy Clarkson rips.

Those videos are still very presious to me. I've made a double backup just to be sure :D

antonioledesma 03-14-2005 12:57 PM

I came here because... I was trying to find F1 videos from kazaa, there I found the very famous mclaren f1 top gear review by tiff :shock: :shock: OMG!! I've never seen that car been driven like that, I'm looking at a complete new, different world

I had to find more reviews like that. After knowing that show was called top gear, I looked for videos in the web and after a couple of days I found a webpage, the unreliable racingflix, and from that point you can guess, came here in october 2003.

just as the noobs from those days I did not have a clue for the videos. I was never a person who read forums, went into chats, etc. I'm confesing here.... I sent one PM to ask for the vids :oops:
then I didn't login for some time, or just came to find the button... again.
then started to read the forum... and started to participate after lots of post reading, I didn't know what to post, something intelligent (it has been proven I can't :mrgreen:). This is called a forum.. :mrgreen:
then after some time I got access and voilá

HA! Yes! Thats the guy :P Thanx for explaining whats it all about cause otherwise if you'd say - "f**k off and read the forum" I wouldnt be here maybe :wink: http://arman.xz.cz/smilees/bier.gif Thanx Overmind!

SFDMALEX 03-14-2005 01:28 PM

Meh you guys suck. I'm old school. I was getting Jabbas vids long before this site came online. Basicly I was on racing flix then noticed that this guy is posting some great vids...dont remeber how I got the passwords for them, I think I had to PM Jabba or TT and had to put a special avatar. Then this site came alive...I dont download that many vids though....since I dont even have the time to watch em :cry:

So thats my story.

DeMoN 03-14-2005 01:39 PM

Ive been here forever lol. I was the 1st person to register to JW and I am happy abot that achievement lol. When you click on MEMBER list, I am right below Jabba (jabba doesnt count as 1st cuz he register the site OK? lol).

I have imagined though, how it would be for the people that just came here. I know if I would have just signed up, I would probably click everywhere too... not to mention, EDIT - Select Alll so that everything (other than background) turned blue and see if the Hidden dload button appeared.
