If you're using Firefox there's an addon to block a referer, it's called RefControl :

https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/953/

For example I'm posting ImageVenue sets on a site which was recently blacklisted by radikal.Ru (used for really big filesizes). So pictures uploaded there with IIIU stopped appearing on our site. All you have to do is install that addon, put radikal.ru in the list, select Block-send no referer and it's done, pictures hosted on radikal are appearing as usual.

Somebody could open or post a simple info sharing board for folks leaving here maybe? To help finding the new decent forums.

Yes, even is this dark and confusing times there are:

Good news

Check the rules again:
https://www.forumophilia.com/topic59567.html#643328

but i'm afraid that i have to suggest that we all (including me) check the rules on a daily basis, just to be sure what's going on ...


***[edit]

Sorry folks,

in case you wonder what the good news are (or better were):

RS was allowed again by GS (but it looks like it disappeared after less than half an hour)
Sorry for any inconveniences, we better check the rules on a quarterly hour basis

not so good. but i hope the best. in 24 hours we all know more.

i need some sleep after 2 hours icq chat with GS

This is bordering on hilarious.

Rules changing minute by minute.

Fake users posting copied Oron links.

Fake posts using respected poster's names.

I know you guys on the staff want to make this work but when your boss is a loose cannon what can you do?

.... and the best posters are long gone.

this was my mistake! *shame*

i have changes some rules before GS says that it is ok. but hey.. noone is free of mistakes

and in under 24 hours you all know the final rules.


atm. you can use oron or mu. there is no need to make a oron mirror if you only want to use mu

With everybody having the shits with Rapidshare these forums will be a nightmare. Other forums I go onto have turned to Sh-------ix and Hotfile.
Here it is MU or Oron.
One simple Rapidshare Premium account use to get you 90% of the downloads. Now it will be a shambles.

anyone care for some wine?

Yeah, but: The fact that 90% of downloads was hosted on RS means that RS can do what they want (as they did now), and as so many people have already payed they do not simply walk away. After all we see now what a ruckus it is just trying to sort out what should happen after RS!

One thing I would see as a solution: a single provider that allows you to download from multiple hosters. THis board had a banner for something like this (one account gives you RS/uploaded/deposit/HF/whatever), but then this banner was taken down right before the RS trouble started

But: If ever it will happen again that there is one hoster that offers 90% of downloads worldwide it will be years until it is established. After all, it is not like 4, 5 years ago that RS was the first and only OCH around and so it drew uploaders naturally, today you have a good dozen alternatives...

And another thing I still see as problematic: Almost all hosters are either in the EU or in the US. Both are places where there are extensive copyright and internet legislations, and hosters are **** to rat on uploaders everytime someone asks!!! Yes, it might be safer to download than to use torrents, but uploaders are just as exposed!
Only solution I see is to not only use Tonga domains but to physically put the servers in a place where EU and US law cannot get it, and to operate the hosting service from a place where local law does not give EU and US law enforcement the personal details about the operator! Why? Because this is what is killing RS at the moment: The servers are in Germany, the business sits in Switzerland, and the name of the RS boss is known. So he gets sued for copyright violation (or the facilitation of violation by others) in Germany where laws are especially strict and he has to go before German court because if not Germany impounds his servers. And even if he wins the multimillon dollar suit it has cost him a few ten thousand bucks for lawyers alone, so he rather goes and tells German police the IP of the uploader (after all losing one member costs less than a law suit), and German law enforcement either arrests the uploader itself if he is in Germany or passes that IP on to whatever country the uploader comes from. And: You sue the hoster twice and he starts thinking of a new business model, as RS is doing now.

Counter-example: .tv domain, server physically in lets say the Bahamas, operator is a letterbox enterprise in lets say Dubai. Anyone wants to get at the hoster asks the domain holder, it refers to the dubai firm and the firm says, well, under Dubai law I am not forbidden to do this, and under Dubai law I am not required to give you the address of the guy who owns the firm. You can sue us as the enterprise, but this has to be done in Dubai under Dubai law. And: We are a Ltd. with officially ONE DOLLAR to our name, so that is all you will get even if you win the suit. Still wanna try? in other words: Fuck you.
If the law then traces the IP to the bahamas they say, no, we do not switch the server off, impound it or otherwise interfere with a foreign enterprise's possessions. Sue the enterprise, it is a Ltd. in Dubai. So: Fuck you again.

That would be a hoster I would gladly pay 15 Euros a month for, where I would up my whole HD to, and I would even gladly sacrifice a little speed for the security that my ass won't ever be on the line for sharing stuff. I will settle for the operating business in a remote country, as then I could lose my files and see the hosting service page switched off, but they still don't have to give the law my name... But hoster from the US (oron and MU both are) is decisively shit securitywise, even if I am in Europe: The europeans jump everytime the US says "frog" anyway...
