well i thought i was strange when the guy and tech support told me to
divide the 1,024 value (the download speed 1 megabit and the upload 128
kilobits) i am currently runnin 6 players on any map very comfortably
and i really don't apprieciate being treated like an idiot it's not that
hard to figure out. so now lets get back to the point of my original
question shall we.
WHAT SHOULD I SET MY RATES TO (AND IGNORE THE FACT THE I SHOULDN'T DO IT
YOPUR ONLY WASTING MY TIME)

Sorry, but I just want to verify, you do know those byte values are
wrong don't you?
1MB is 1024 KB which is 1048576 Bytes, which is 8388608 bits.
Gb->Mb->Kb always factors of 1024 different.
There are 8 bits in a byte.
1Mbps (bits per second, the standard measurement for most
telcommunications speeds)
1Mbps is capable of sending 1024kbps, which is 1048576 bits per second.
128k is actually 131072 bits per second
16k is 16384 bits per second.
Rounded values are however good as they leave some space for
oversubscription / link control / protocol overhead.
Yeah, I couldn't recommend running a server on 16kbps up.

i'm new to this and i've been reading this thread with interest as i
have a 16k upload and a 128k download on my connection (1 megabit fibre

1Mb = 1,024,000 bytes
128k = 128,000 bytes
16k = 16,000 bytes
Something you're saying isn't making sense to me. So I'm just going to
use your upload and download numbers.
and i want to run 8 players on my cs 1.6 server
I don't see how you could get more than 4 people on that connection
without considerable lag. My server graphs indicate 4.5Kb per player
outgoing as the ave for 1.6. So, if you're certain that 16k is in fact
your outgoing limit, then this line just isn't suitable to run a server,
unless you like very small maps for 4 player action. Outgoing line
speed is where the bulk of the traffic is due to each client getting
info from the server about all the other clients.
