Does every filehost suspend accounts after a certain amount of DMCA-s ?

My account at depositfiles was terminated / banned 2x times till now, because I had 80+ DMCA. Fortunately I didn't have much money on it, because I mainly wanted to collect U-points to make premium coupons. What are your experiences at other file hosts? Do they suspend / terminate accounts? How to avoid this annoyance?

Just for safety one have to note / record those useless removal codes which are generated at every file hosting site for every file when uploading is finished, and has forms like for example "http://dfiles.eu/rmv/9861565158611075". With those removal codes you will be able to remove your files from your old / orphaned account without logging in it. Otherwise people will keep downloading your uploaded files, I think, sometimes they are still available even for years after account deletion.

i'm pretty sure it matters where the complaint comes from as well, lets say you get DMCA on adult content, no serious filehost will care about this, surely they will remove the files to please webmasters reporting the files but they won't ban anyone for sharing xxx, no one cares about porn peddlers rights anyway.

It sounds to me you where sharing books which a more legitimate DMCA would occur, i'd say away from sharing warez

UL killed off my first account for porn DMCA notices. Someone reported hundreds of my links which had material from 100 or so different sites, many of them dead.

A lot of it does depend on the site you are posting. Some webmasters make all sorts of threats and filehost companies figure it's better to cut bait, especially if you are not selling a lot of their accounts for them. Other webmasters, who I will not name, have a bad habit of lying about the nature of the content they are reporting. I'm sure you can figure out what I'm talking about.

People who instantly repost fresh links after the old ones are killed off, probably are at a greater risk of having their accounts banned. Especially if they don't bother changing the names of their files.
