RS banned - I can´t believe it. Crying or Very sad

Ok I know some things are changeable - thats life. But these two "new" File Hoster...

1. I don´t know many people they are using Oron.
2. And MU is maybe an good site, but right now a official target of the US Government ... should we change the hosts monthly?

My uploaded stuff are to big for an easy moving.

I hope svinto and the other mods can fixed it.

I still can't believe that ! Shocked Evil or Very Mad
Well well well... So I'm gonna dl everything I can here with RS.

But I don't think I'll upload something to a file host who pay you.

Sharing should only be with non profit.

I think it's time to read the writing on the wall. The days of getting everything for free on the internet are rapidly coming to an end.
Eventually even the filehosters will be **** to hand over all info about who uploads & downloads what from them. It may be months or even years down the road, but that's what it'll come to eventually.

Wow, I totally missed this news. I know there's a lot of anger about Rapidshare screwing members over by changing the rules, but why has it been banned? Surely it is the prerogative of those paying to use Rapidshare? What about members here who have paid for accounts? Isn't it a bit unfair for them?

Sorry if I'm missing the point, but these seems to be bit of a bombshell and I'm surprised that something like this has only generated two pages of discussion - has everybody left already?!

I agree. I paid for a full RS account because of this board and it's crazy for me to pay again. It will mean the end of this place for me, which is too bad as I love it here.

It is exactly my point of view. It is very sad and I understand that the big contributors don't want to change their filehosters.

I hope that a change of strategy will come because I don't see the point of killing this forum/ Because a forum without contributors is a dead forum.

Thanks a lot to all the people who brought a lot of excellent materials here.

Hi GS.

I have removed rapídshare from the word censor.
It's the wrong way of introducing a change.
Especially since Rapid is, and has been, the major fileservice utilised in the forum for a long time.
As long as members and moderators are seeing the allowed hostlist in the Rules section, those hosters has to be allowed and not being censored out.

Any change to the list, in terms of removing hosts, is to make an Announcement in which a set date for the change is stipulated.
The transition period has to be long, not just one week.
Information should first be conveyed to the moderators and then to the members.

I intend to agree with what many members have expressed in various threads.
The way things are done will kill the forum.
At least many of the current big contributors will just stop posting.

The way changes are done also creates confusion and frustration amongst the moderators who doesn't know which leg to stand on.

I have actually started to seriously consider if I want to stay part of this.

svinto


Thanks for the mod to consider the members as ... members Wink

And as thebaba said i can't imagine a board without RS Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

As i said in my thread, RS is a mark of quality and respect (especially here) and on my side, it's a BIG part of forumophilia.

So why has it been banned? I still don't understand.

How can banning something people have already paid for benefit members financially? Surely as grown ups we should be able to make informed decisions ourselves about how to spend our money?

It all just seems bizarre!

It's more than two pages.
This is just one of the topics where the discussion is held.
Check the Rules section for starters.

Lots of people don't understand it very well.
An account for RS is now a hole lot cheaper.
But that is only for people who download not upload.

Storage, will cost you a fortune.

I might have missed something but I have 116 GB uploaded.
And no problem to upload more.
Well over the 10GB quoted as included.
With the latest change I'm charged 99 Rapids every 30 days for the storage. I get on average 1 GB/day to download.
But it means I can download 30 GB in one day.
If I then want to download more it will cost. 14 Rapids for 5 GB traffic addition.
This is with the deactivation of keep files for ever.
No downloads in 60 days and the file will be deleted.
Actually I'm not sure how it works.
I have files uploaded that I haven't posted the links for and they are more than 60 days old.
If I don't use more than the 30 GB download traffic/30 days my accumulated Rapids will keep the account alive for more than three years.

The cost to keep the account by buying more Rapids is €1.25/month or approx $1.60/month when covering for 4 months (400 Rapids €4.99).
Lower if you go for longer periods of extension.
