Official Filesonic.com Launch - Announcement & Feedback

2FileSonic

I read your answer couple of pages back regarding downloading user's own downloads. I want to stress that I welcome your policy when you do not count my downloads of my own files and also will not block my account for this. This feature is important for me to be able to check complaints of other users when saying that some files are corrupt. please keep that.

 

ehmm browser download speed is right now 41kb/s.and im premium
and i usually download with 2.5 mb/s with other hosters(with idm)

 

Use Google chrome for the best result..

& about idm support its working for me..

 

Yes about paying filesonic support is the best for me..

Thanks you so much Hish for all my payment i was truly appreciated & admire...

East or West.

Filesonic is the best lol

 

Problem with premium sales, when someone tries to buy premium a user id is missing, screen:

 

I was always scared about this

 

Hi guys,

this is not a problem! You still get the premium!

I will ask someone to look into it anyway.

Regards,

Hish

 

This is terrible news..

Can you please send me the file that you are testing, along with your filesonic login ID ? PM them to me please and briefly mention the problem!

Thanks

Hish

The odds are good your stats are correct. I haven't spoken to many folk who have not seen a 50-70% drop in downloads since the new module was implemented yesterday. Still, I'm sure Hish will take a look for you. The guy lives to serve. Just look at all the people he has made happy today. ;-)

Expect it to stay at this low level for at least a couple more days until the download managers catch up. Not as many downloaders are going to download as many files through their browsers as they would through managers. This is especially true for those sharing large, multi-part archives.

Anybody on PPD displeased with the drastic drop in stats would be advised to keep a close eye on your sales count. You could well see a bump in sales over the next few days as free users become premium users now that they can no longer prevail themselves of the premium features they were able to access without upgrading prior to the installation of the new download module yesterday. If you see a spike, switch yourself to PPS and take advantage of the situation, even if only temporarily.

 

hi filesonic support,

is it really necessary to disable free users from downloading more than 400Mb files? since their speed is limited, this would take free users longer to download these stuff and would more than likely compel them to buy premium accounts... that is if they like what they saw after downloading... but if they cannot download then free users would not be able to check out these stuff first.... also, there was nothing on the site to suggest that there is a limit for downloaders... what i read was for free account uploaders that are limited to upload under 400Mb...i thought my downloaders would be able to download more than 400Mb files that i as a premium member uploaded...

 

The 400mb ceiling has been in place as long as I can remember, both with FileSonic and with SharingMatrix in the "old" days. Free downloaders have only been able to bypass this recently because there was a hole in the one of the multiple versions of code swapped out over the past two months. As to the claim "there was nothing on the site to suggest that there is a limit for downloaders", this limit is prominent in several places, including:

 

The new download module (as well as the recently implemented captchas) have boosted my sales significantly. Kudos to filesonic. This is the first time I've made $69.60 in one day!

 

Hish:
I know you changed something whith filesonic,so the downloads reduced and my premium sold was 0.
this is bad for me and otheres,the important is bad for you too!

 

That is great to hear Wish you some more too

 

Downloads reduced as people can no longer cue up files with programs like Jdownloader as download them as if they're premium. I don't understand why you have no sales though. It's possible that it is easy to obtain your files elsewhere therefore people have no need to go premium through your links. Without knowing what you post I cannot say.

 

Hello!

The thing we did was done yesterday(27th September) and I can see that your stats were up and down the past days! One thing I can tell you, is that some of your downloads were affected in the past partly due to servers being down and some people not being able to download... Now with the change in downloads, there will be MUCH less load on servers (because of illegal affiliates not being able to steal downloads), there much less crashes!

Regards,

Hish

 

It might be a coincidence... Example: look at his stats on 17th,19th,23rd,24th,25th & 26th of September... Free users were still able to download in parallel back then and no change was made back then... And 0 sales for those days and downloads was higher than the days with downloads too!
