The last time I complained about high bandwidth usage I was instructed to download "Opera" and use the "Low bandwidth" feature.

Sick, right?

Wait, do we care that my page is 1mb? If it's an issue of bandwidth costs, for sure that's a viable complaint. But if we're complaining about load times... uhhh... every other page on every website EVER nowdays is larger and more graphics intensive than 1mb. Go to IGN, Gamestop, any of those.... the pages are quite large in size. Why? Because everybody has effing DSL or Cable.

It's only a problem for some.

Especially for people who have super @#(!ty mobile phone browser on limited data plans because I've run into a few mobile phone browsers that don't handle bookmarks or cookies well.

Hi Bacon.

The leftover faction description section would do better as bullet points next to their images. Run-on sentences are less cool than other things.

You know, there's a difference between it being a problem and practicing good development.

^ this. Also, I wish that bandwidth and page load time were my only criticisms of the page.
