Any.
I doubt it will make much of a difference. And you speak as if some mirrors are the spawn of (Please refrain from swearing) xD

Just pick the one closest to your location, for optimal download speed. The mirrors Soldat uses I do believe are the same ones that host a multitude of other free downloadable programs... Could be wrong, it's not every day you have to go download the game, afterall.

Anyway, the point is, thousands of people download probably hundreds of programs from those mirror sites without any problems, so you should be able to as well. And if you're paranoid, you can just run a Microsoft AntiSpyware scan and so on, which you should do regularly anyway.

The mirror from dyn.u13.net is reliable and fast. It's the one at the top if my memory serves me right.

yes, I am the owner of the u13.net mirror and it is fine. I used to manage the mirrors list and there has never been an issue with viruses or anything, and i've hever heard of an issue before or after that time either. If anything, the links won't work, but never will they have a virus or anything bad

He doesn't have to, jebushunter. As long as he keeps being courteous and cheerful (two attributes that you don't have), we'll keep treating him the same way that we are now.

He has respect. You don't.

By the way, welcome to the forums, doe. You'll find that people's attitudes towards you here tends to be highly polar: if you're annoying, we'll get tired of you very quickly; but if you continue to be polite, you'll be accepted unconditionally. I hope you have fun with the game and continue to visit these forums!

Yes, welcome to the forums. ;) Everything Vijchtidoodah said is true, so there's nothing more I have to say.

If you're still looking for a Soldat mirror, the first one (Ultimate 13) is speedy and reliable if you live in the USA. It should work just fine internationally though.

Anyway, welcome.

Edit: Oh, I forgot to say ... Please read the forum FAQ before posting anything further. It won't take you any longer than 5 minutes. ;D

yeah just noticed, and what forum does he moderate anyway? if i had to guess, i'd say server discussions...for obvious reasons.

Vijchtidoodah should be the next mod.
