Why Do Servers Not Allow You To Auto Resume

Okay this is bloody annoying.

I was downloading the client in its 4 parts using a download manager in case something went wrong and I was almost finshed when BAM my computer crashed, no biggie I thought THIS IS WHY I USE A DAMN DOWNLOAD MANAGER!!!

Resumed the downloads again and then bloody noticed all of them were back to 0meg and the downloads had started from the beginning again. This is not a problem in most countries but in my country we get CAPPED. I used up almost most of my cap to get to blooming 97% of the download just to have it start over again b:angryb:angryb:angry. The only reason I am swopping to PW int from PW Mal is because my friends have moved to this version.

Now I'm buggered, I'm almost capped and now have to wait for my cap to reset to try again but what happens if this happens again, are you going to reinburse me for the cap I lost, yeah bloody right. If anybody is interested I was using Getright.

BIG TIP, PLEASE MAKE SURE DOWNLOAD MANAGERS CAN AUTO RESUME FROM YOUR SERVERS

THANKYOU

    Use Torrent program like BitTorrent. Doesnt matter if you crash, it continues allways.

    Wow. I am so sorry to hear about that. That is so user-nasty that I think I'd be looking for another game if that happened to me. Here in the States quite a few of us have caps as well, so it doesn't make sense to me for a game with an enormous client not to support download managers. Sheesh :/ 'Course it's a tad late to change to BitTorrent, well, maybe next month if you decide to try again.
