    Default web1000 to host files

    If i host my files on multiple web1000 accounts will I lose lots of potential dlers and what are the chances I will get shut down because of the isos?

    I guess shut down chances are high.... look at what happend to howie's site with the Rom Giver Guild.

    I had a site there a couple times, and they locked me out of my FTP access and I wasn't violating a single policy.

    BTW always have an index page or your site will be deleted for just being files.
    So I make games now sort of. Check the out the one I have in the IGF this year, its totally free: www.mackvswindows.com

    Also add me on things.

    And you'll lose alot of downloaders, cuz the downloads don't work for people from asia. But what can you do? You gotta compromise, cuz there aren't many other hosts that have the same features as this.

    No downloaders as in no one in asia can download warez files you put on it or just that people in Asia can't access it at all?

    yeah, people from asia can't access any web1000 files i think. I read that a while back, but I can't remember where i saw it anymore.

    I wonder how they do this though, finding out it people live in asia or not..

    Oh that's quite simple. Running a tracer on an IP is enough to tell you the location that person comes from. For example, you, omni_rom, are somewhere around NYC I think.

    Cool, you got the same country right, but I'm from California. Is there anything else that those tracers can do?

    I don't think those tracers work too well with people with dynamic IP.
