Yes I have no idea wtf is going on over at RS ~ everytiem I try to download a file I get this

"ou have exceeded the download limit.
Your account is credited with 5 Gigabytes per day. 5 Gigabytes are equal to 5.000.000.000 Bytes."

I know what 5 gig is you complete and utter cocks, do you? I have 1 gig in storage and have never downloaded anything, nor has anyone else from that account in over three weeks?

Anyone know how this gets fixed?

Looks like there's a way of preventing the Auto Upgrade: "The Auto-Cleanup will also prevent the automatic upgrading of your Hosting-Package."
dead link

Refers to hosting of files, not to download-Package Exclamation

autocleanup is enabled in my account and the package was upgraded automatically to rperday=20 when i exceeded the traffic-limit.

Guess that's what i meant,

IMO that is clear (even Twisted Evil ) because that makes sense: files, which are deleted on 60 days of inactivity don't need to be kept alife using Rapids.
That's the same like before the changes when files were in a CA or a PA with more than 50GB.
btw. checking "Automatically delete inactive files" seems the only way to "delete" files (without using Rapids for a package wich allows deletion?)
I thought that would be clear - this had been discussed nearly on every page of this thread, that this should be NOT any problem.

I still don't understand why people start deleting files ... maybe it's just moving traffic to another host, where they still get rewards?
Very simple soution if you don't want to think about your hosted files Arrow create a free-account without any Rapids and move files there, this way files are still availavle for download without consuming any Rapids for sure.

And it's also possible to auto-downgrade. You can enter your minimum package, and Rapidshare will set you down after 24 hours of an upgrade.

Fine for grabbers. You can choose the minimum with 4 Rapids/day, and only if you download more than 1 GB you will be upgraded and after 24 downgraded.
Obviously it's not clear, what minimum and maximum means Neutral

minimum: Your package is this or HIGER
maximum: Your package is limited to this in upgrades (but afaik NOT downgraded to something lower)



@sir_darkstar
one of my accounts is limitted to 1GB and i get the same message (limited to 5 GB - obviously incorrect Laughing), and my "Traffic left" is nagative.
check what is says there about traffic https://ssl.rapidshare.com/premzone.html -> Account Overview
and check -> Settings -> Your maximal package:

IMO things will "normalize" in a couple of days.

RS is doing one big step (forward? backwards?) - everyone complains - RS makes some minor fixes and little steps back -> "it's not that bad" / "it could have been/was worse." Twisted Evil ... and in the end RS is still on top [not this time, hehe] Twisted Evil


I have to admit that I've nearly never used that new page - because it's crap IMHO - but now the old page doesnt exist and i prefer now a puristic text delivered from their API Evil or Very Mad


I tried to upload a file -> something is uploaded (i see traffic) , but no file is stored at RS (according to refreshed page and to getaccountdetails_v1) Arrow RS will have to fix this
i used the old uploader -> file is there

I selected the checkbox and clicked delete (to recyle-bin) -> tells me i need to upgrade package -> seems to need FolderManagement
I selected the checkbox and clicked delete (delete directly) Arrow OK - the file is gone now Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad until i refresh Embarassed
=> i've transfered the file to another account - that worked -> renamed file (which kills the link) => now i'll wait 60 days Evil or Very Mad

minor bug is that the chart with traffic/storage has wrong information in the popup-message (i.e. kB instead of MB / Bytes instead kB)



EDIT
some hours later it works finally

-> select the checkboxes and click delete (delete directly) Arrow gone!

Alright, so they converted my collectors account to a Premium account. So let me know if I have this right. If I don't pay to extend the account, all my files get deleted?

You don't need to pay anything. The files are available for 60 days without download (no matter if it's an 'active' or 'inactive' account.).

You can extend these 60 days to 'forever' by paying.

Explain to me, after converting shares to 600 rapid points, I somehow lost 4 points without downloading anything.

As long as (as soon as) You have Rapids, the minimum Package, which can be selected is RapidSmall - this costs 4 Rapids per day.

Will mean: if you don't download anything (or less than 1GB/day or 10GB during HappyHour) 600 rapids will last five months, during this time you have Premium (or is it called Platinum?) features, then the account becomes 'inactive' (was called Collectors-Account before). The files are still stored for 60 days without download.


It's still called EASY Filehosting Laughing

This morning there was a message (in account overview I think) that happy hour was back, but the message has now disappeared.
Anybody else see it?

yepp, seen it Shocked

HH is not "back", because it was always there Razz from (2am - 10am) CEST (CET in winter)
If HH sould stop existing, then RS will announce this.

Now there is an additional message during HH.

OK , that much I do understand Rolling Eyes

On the other hand, does it mean -theoretical-
you have an "inactive" account but the files will be d/l at least once a week or so.
Do this files have the chance to live "forever" ???

Not sure if you have fixed it, but i suppose you can also exceed your daily traffic (without downloading anything by yourself) by having some files with activated "TrafficShare" in your account that got downloaded by other users.
Never used this feature, so i'm just guessing.


@petram:

Yes, i guess this works. Downloaded files (at least once in 60 days) should live forever

Hello

Since a few days. Rapidshare has changed its trade policy.
We can no longer download as according to his desires. It works now with their "System RapidPoint. Every day you will lose points even if you do not download. It was bought by Major Music Universal. And it looks forward to kill the host Rapidshare its new policy that aims to raise over $. For me, this is a big scam on their part.I urge you not to put any media on this site ... Because I know it's a pure scam scale. Thank you to you
