    We used to have p2p downloads in the IRC chat. It went don't the toilet though because nobody uses the room.

    Default Just letting everyone know..

    Was looking up my problem with Rapidshare and as it turns out, they limited the free users to 30 KB's even if it looks like you're downloading faster. They intentionally pause your download to give you a 30 KB average. So, I'm pretty sure that everyone's preference will be to NOT use Rapidshare anymore. Unless you're looking forward to extremely long download times. (Put this where the most people would see it.. General gaming. Feel free to post it anywhere else you like)

    Stone, you can try premium link generator. I use premium link generator for Hotfile. Without premum link generator, I get around 20-40kbs but with premium link generator, I can get around 100-140kbs.
    I'm pretty sure that there are premium link generator for rapidshare.
    Cheers.

    Your best bet is to buy a premium account, that's my plan.

    Are you saying there are ways to play games besides illegally downloading them?

    We must keep up the fight because the bills might have been stopped, but sooner or later there going to have a sister bill with a little change and try to sneak it threw. So we must keep watching theses kinds of bills and shutting them down as soon as there put up.

    I guess you could pay for a rapidshare account but, like most people you regularly download from multiple sources, what's to stop mediafire or any of the others from pulling this sorta thing. I never liked the idea of paying for a cyberlocker download account for the reason that there are too many (well, that number is going fast).

    Mediafire has always allowed multiple simultaneous downloads at fullspeed; I doubt they will change policy any time soon.

    There is a possibility that Media Fire is going to be targeted next. Megaupload was one of the biggest cyber lockers which offered great downloading speeds for free users. When Megaupload got shut down, many people migrated to Rapidshare, another cyber locker which also offered great speed for free users but then was limited due to the amount of people uploading illegal content. What other file host offers at least a good speed for free users? Media Fire. I just hope nothing happens to it.
