    Im so dissapointed. Ive been using my account for almost a year and now i cant log in. it gives me an error message

    "ERROR : Unexpected error during process Authentication: - No user found with such email."

    I cant be wrong. If my account has been hacked then how come i can still retrieve my password? Ive been saving my earnings there and now its gone. T_T Is there a bug in the site?

    Agree 100% !
    To be honest I got sick and tired of making this point (which seems pretty obvious to me) and just thought 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em', so I've been ru'ing a few files for the last month or so. I have such a crappy upload speed that it takes me hours just to upload a 300mb file, however I would rather do that and have half a chance of my (yes 'my') work bringing some small results. I have a brand new mega thread on one of my fav boards - it's only been there for a couple of days but someone ru'd the entire thread and re-posted it everywhere (even on the board it came from !). It was a lot of work, but not for the asshole leacher.
    Personally I'd prefer to loose ru and go back to taking hours to upload - the numbers will go down, but the quality will go up.

    Perhaps wbb has forced the issue - perhaps fsn now has no choice but to take notice or be banned. I for one will look forward with joy to removing that firefox plugin when it becomes useless.
    As for the crying leachers - tough - unlucky - do some work !

    No, the ones who want internal RU gone are the ones who are doing all the work only to have it RU and spammed on the same forum 1 minute later by lazy bums.

    @want2makecash

    Good post, finally someone that see beyond the obvious. Its only big deal for Filesonic honestly, they want o give in to select fef fine by me. You only need remote upload to others and back to FS so the naive that "original uploiaders" will have more download or sales is void.

    Now for filesonic if they do forbid FS to FS it will be a kick in the balls for MOST users, so the experience will be less enjoyable but people will still RU form FS to xxxx host. Bad for filesonic as then there is more incentive to have mirrors, you already will have a premium account somewhere else so may as well use the service and have backups.

    Now if they dont like it FS may or may not join in the crappy game of banning thinking that that way users will exclusively use their service...which wont be happening.

    If something hosters should have learned by now is that uploaders loyalty is non existent.

    But only hosters know how this game is really played and the ins and outs, all I see is that hosters make the same error of pissing off their users and ultimately they change to others with a better experience until that one makes the same error and the process is repeated ( Mighty RS/MU then HF then FServe and now Filesonic seems to be taking its place).

    And for the user talking about lame arguments, nothing more lame that the "original uploader" one, we all know 99.9% of us are downloading and re-uploading whatever we get somewhere else PERIOD. So what "original uploader"???

    Banning FS to FS will mean more sales? NAIVE, your sales eventually decrease a good deal because as many of us know once a user join via one of your files rebills are all for FSC, that sale is a one time only, as more people has premium accounts less sales for you, in the case the user leaves FSC then its because he/she didn't like the service and will go to another hoster, even if the user returns later do you think it will be joining one of your files? NO will just rectivate the account or join directly via the main FSC site.

    Those that think banning FS to FS will stop people for RU "your files" naive too as one will only need to RU somewhere else, and like I mentioned if FS does not like it and falls in the game of banning RU to others then the very enjoyable experience with FS thanks to their good work until now will decline.

    Dont like "your darn hard work" and or "your files" "stolen", there are way if not to stop it at least to discourage it or even use it to your advantage depending on your situation but guess it too hard to come up with ideas eh.

    Great Filesonic experience till now, lets see it is resumed or declines over time.

    I will give it a rest now since none of us on either perspective will change our opinion on this issue.

    Well, that's not quite true actually. I'm talking from my experience, because I am using few different filehosts and I have never seen one single upload of mine beeing leeched from any other host than FileSonic. Never. Everytime I post at Filesonic my files are being leeched very fast. When I post to other host that's simply not happening because that other hosts does not allow internal RU as the most convinient way of leeching. Of course, there are some ways that experienced uploader can use to leech others' files even without internal RU, but 95% today's FSC leechers won't be able to do that because:

    1) they are too stupid to do anything harder than remotely upload others' FSC files with just one click
    2) they are too lazy to do anything harder than remotely upload others' FSC files with just one click
    3) they don't have money or don't want to invest in some other ways of leeching, or to buy premium on some other host, etc

    Other than that, leeching the way you describe it takes more time than simple instant internal FSC RU, so at the end of the day today's leechers physicaly are not able to leech as much as they could with internal RU. You are fooling yourself if you are thinking that even if they disable internal leeching still the same amount of leeching it's going to happen. No, it won't, you'll see, it's going to be 80% leeching less. I know that, because I clearly see that when it comes to other hosts that don't allow internal RU there is no massive amount of leeching.

    And about "original uploaders", well believe it or not - there is a lot of really original uploaders, if you are the ono who just download and reupload, that does not mean that everybody else do it. For example, you got people who are paying subscriptions to various paysites and then share the contect they bought, people who upload sowtfare/music they bought on physical copies, etc. Why would they share their profit with some lazy leecher who does not know better than just leech files with one click?

    What so bad with some of them shutting down? Serious people will always make serious money look what happen to napster? How long you think Pay Pal will allow to support file share like this? If to many DMCA complain Pay Pal and all other Visa related payment will pull the plug for sure.

    Fine you're not happy about Fso to FSo RU, but you are still making more than any other host site with these sales, that's why you wouldn't stop using FSo

    Good time to remove RU FSo to FSo when it's +25% weekend :p

    yeah.. some like will do that. but disabling internal RU will prevent newbies who doesnt know what they are doing from spamming the shit out of some forums. it will reduce spam considerably. thats what matters

    I like this action of filesonic to stop internal remote upload. We are all leecher here!! what I mean if you're not a film producer, a programmer or designer, a pornstar then definitely you are a leecher. Leeching from other filesonic url is not totally bad but COMPETING to the person whom your files come from is not good idea. You will be cursed for life for doing this. It's like frying a fish to his own oil. But ofcourse theres still a lot of way to leech from filesonic to filesonic, my point is give atleast a little credit or RESPECT to the original uploader or by not COMPETING to his post.

    change to PPS and you will be credited for the sales but no earnings for PPD. and you can only change your plan after 1 week.

    You all should start to upload from your computer, not to leech from RU.
