[olug] Active bandwidth monitoring

[Sam Tetherow]

I called their network usage abusive because they have broken the TOS by 
exceeding the transfer cap placed on the account and they have 
failed/refused to respond to my notification that they are in excess of 
their agreed upon service.

Most users understand once you explain to them how I can sell them 
something at less then 25% what I pay for it and still manage to meet 
all my additional expenses. Those that don't get it I really don't want 
as customers anyway.
