So, despite the fact that they paid for it, our users can not longer use a downloadmanager ? No wonder why I see a big drop in both sales and downloads....
Filemates is not for leechers ? What is a leecher ? Uploaders - who pay you to use you to upload their files, have the right to upload anything they want. It can be their family pics, a backup of important files they don't which to share, their own artistic works, but not someone else work. Whatever they upload, it is not your business. They pay you, and you host it. Point. Filehosts talk all the time that they are not responsible for what the users upload, and that it is not their fault users occasionally upload copy righted material. Filehosts like you also claim that there is something like DMCA and if they follow their rules, they are safe (strange enough an American law which has nothing to do with you, wonder what will happen if ever an European host will go to court with this excuse...)
So you have nothing to do with illegal things as you told many times to Robert. But in the case of they guy who complained here a couple of weeks ago about the 'fake files', I went to that site and it was all copyrighted Japanese porn - at least that was the first impression - all his files were fake. But you terminated that guy his account because his files were not illegal at all, they just pissed off a porn lover who found out that his illegal files were all fake.... OK, these fake files are not good for your business I suppose, but legally nothing wrong with it. And what hey uploads is not your business at all. Maybe we should encrypt our files at the end because our privacy is not really guaranteed over here :cursing:
What do you really want ? They way it is now, my users can not really use your service. Do you really want to kill a nice business because of fear for a couple of bad boys who "leech" ? There is already a 40Gb limit a day... why to punish the good guys to catch just a handful of bad ones... Will not work. I guarantee.
About the 'contact form' : it was just a suggestion. I will not use it because I already have a similar, but better and especially safer one so if I could simply turn it off, it should be nice. Not replying is a possibility, but shows a lack of respect to our users - if they ask a question they should receive a reply - not as
info@filemates.com which never replies. If you feel that FM is big enough to threat your uploaders to be kicked out because they don't reply, please be my guest.
