Is transfer not pooled anymore?

If you go to the dashboard in cloud manager, there's a Monthly Network Transfer Pool display on the far right side.

You're right, but there is also this on each linode, hence the confusion.

Forum seems to have killed my markdown embedded image that worked fine in preview.

This same kind of thing exists in the classic Manager. On a Linode, the transfer display shows only that Linode's usage relative to its contribution to the pool, whereas the list of Linodes shows the transfer pool usage.
