    My opinion:
    I think it's not 100% which get you promoted, it's actually 150%. I stayed at bronze only for 3 days, then got back at copper yesterday. After the launch of the new rules, I kept checking my hotfile account almost every hour to see what's happening, the first day when I got promoted I remember the figure was 67%, then it started to fall, every one or two hours, one percent or two, it was OK at bronze I guess, at least way much better than at copper. I was happy seeing I still got almost 60% to lose, but when I was dropped to copper yesterday still at 47% to silver several minutes before updating, I was like WTF? I still got 47%, why it drops so fast?? Then I suddenly realized it must be 150% you have to beat, that means at least you have to be above 50% to stay at each rank. So I guess that's why we are 100% and still stuck at copper.

    And by the way, what did you do to stay at gold? Some advice?

    Today I see in my hotfile profile that I had been paid. But in my ePassporte I still have US$0.00. Does anyone had this kind of situation? Is there a delay when you been paid thru ePassporte?
    I just register for the first time on ePassporte 4-5 days ago. This money that I waited to receive from hotfile, I needed for my account verification. And my ePassporte wallet balance still show US$0.00. Anyone with same problem?
    Last monday first hotfile had problems with there paypal account, and then they couldn't pay me thru paypal so they took back the money on my hotfile profile. Today, I again see on my hotfile profile that I had been paid, but (as in the case with paypal) I can't see on my ePassporte any money. Only zeros.
    I really don't know what should I do.

    Well I am new to ePassporte so I don't know how does that work. Why is there a delay (if it is a delay)?

    My country is on some kind of of 'black list', so I can only receive money on my ePassporte from business account holders. I told hotfile support about this, asking them to tell me what kind of account they use for payout. And they told me that they use business account. So...there shoudn't be a problem. But I still see zeros in my account.
    If it is a delay, it's ok, I can wait. But what if tomorrow is the same thing? Can hotfile take back that money (that maybe I will not receive) and put it back on my hotfile account ( just like in paypal case last monday) or they can't?
    I can't believe that it is this hard to receive money. :(

    New rules are becoming even more strange. I do not upload for several days, i post at forums and earn money but... the darn percentage bar is falling some points every day. Last night I've earned around $1 and loss 6 percentage points... very strange. Probably a new (not announced rule)... every time someone download my files i earn money but loose percentage points.
    This way not even at the doomsday i will reach Platinum level

    That's not strange, it's their formula. The more downloads you get, you are suppose to generate more sales (premium account) for them. Otherwise, you are just leeching from them and that's why they drop your ranking % over the time. It's that simple :)

    I stop using hotfile totally now.

    haha
    The biggest pr0n board (the 'pink one') has a banner on the top of their main page for a poll, asking you if they should ban hotfile? Go there and vote!

    They didn't wanted to pay fairly uploaders, they don't deserve to advertize themselfs for free. And it seams the admin of that board got enough of them, so he decided to make a poll. :D

    You can find this info on UploadCell page:

    So...

    If we imagine that all your downloads are made by anonymous visitors, that means that to collect 10.000 ePoints, you need 10.000 downloads. That further mean: $24 / 10K (downloads) = $2.4 / 1000 (downloads)
    And that sucks. It's worst then hotfile copper level. :D

    Also, if we imagine that you got all 10.000 ePoints from your Premium users, that means 10.000 / 2 = 5.000 (downloads). So, to earn $24 you need 5000 premium downloads, which further mean $24/ 5K = $4.8 / 1000 (premium downloads). And that sucks too.

    The count downloads from every coutnry.

    (It's hard for me to decide should I use them or hotfile. But at least hotfile pays) :D
