For dragonmodz but what i want to know is if there were 8 players constant connected to it would this use up my 3gb as telstra uploads go towards it?

Does Telstra have an upload limit?

Telstra charge their uploads as part of your monthly limit. Therefoe, I would say tat you would be charged for this out of your limit.

heh when i get a job i iwll pay my parents the extra money to upgrade from a 512 connection to a 1500. What i want to know is will 8 players on a server constant for a month use up my 3gb's quickly? or won't it use much data?

Yes if it has a few people in it then I would think it would chew the bandwidth within a week or so

Thing is, even if their AUP doesn't forbid it - on the unlimited plan packets are prioritised on the basis of who downloads the heaviest, with the heaviest downloaders/uploaders getting the lowest priority.

Essentially, the server would be given a crappy connection because it uses it so much.
