rapidshare doesnt give rewards to uploaders... now its like every other file hosting option out there.[/quote]
Pretty much my point. While I will agree RS is probably the fastest, there are a few that are pretty close. Mega and DF are both pretty fast for me. One of the newer ones is also pretty damn fast.
[quote name='nervx' date='16 July 2010 - 02:43 AM' timestamp='1279262606' post='190037']this forum is horrible for abusing shitty file hosts like sharing matrix, orion and so on.[/quote]
Well atm there are two choices, upload to whatever host you want to use and post OR don't post. Nobody is being forced to post content and nobody will be forced to use a specific hoster.
This is a community and we should help each other out. If there is a file on sharematrix that many cannot get the COMMUNITY SPIRITED GUY would DL that file and re-upload (mirror) that file in the same topic.... well people really do not like to play ball like that as it is too much work for little->no satisfaction.
Funny thing is I was about to start doing just that, making mirrors but RS has shot down that idea.
I have never been one to put on a Nike hat and run around as a living commercial advertising for a huge company that does not even know I exist nor would ever care about me and doing it for free. Therefor I will be damned if I will continue to help rapidshare with their huge corporate venture if it does not benefit me.
If you recall when RS started the made a huge stink about FILES HOSTED FOREVER!!! Yeah, I guess forever can be measured in about 3-4 years. And think about this RS statement:
[i]However, we are happy about every single user response that we have received as this is the only way we can learn what our users really want.[/i]
There is no way in hell they could honestly think we wanted this type of change. They simply do not care.
