I may be showing my age, but why doesn't this place use ctcp/dcc bots in an IRC channel on a private server and just have invites via the forums? Is it because of speed? Inquiring minds would like to know.

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

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)

Dark times man. Mediafire is still fine but who knows how long anything will last these days.

even snail can reach the finish line......well gettin something for free cost time,well a lot of time Muahahhaha XD

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.

This has nothing to do with General Gaming...

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

http://ec.europa.eu/commission_2010-...atement_en.pdf this is an intresting read, requires a PDF viewer to be installed prior to you being able to read it, at least someone in the EU sees that ACTA is wrong

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.

You mean pay for something?! Never.

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.

yea rapidshares become shit for free users been a bitch on streaming sites

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.
