    If disabling internal RU will not reduce the amount of leeching at all, how is then disabling of internal RU "wrong for the 99% of affiliates"? :confused: I mean, if leeching with other methods is so easy, then way moaning so much about disabling of internal RU? Then just switch to other methods and stop moaning. But you actually know that what you are saying is not quite true. Disabling of internal RU will reduce leeching for about 85%. Period. What more proofs for that statement you need than the fact that amount of internal leeching at other hosts that don't support internal RU is not even close to the amount of internal leeching at FileSonic? It's all because of internal instant RU and you know that.

    Guys, in filesonic settings it says this about changing payment plan: "Please note that you can only change your plan once per week"
    so for example if i am on PPS but it's not going so well, can i change my plan to PPD on Sunday and if that isn't good enough, on Monday can i change back to PPS?

    nope you cannot change it back to PPS the next day, have to wait for next Sunday (i.e 1 week time)

    also.. someone do something about remote-upload, showing pending for hours!

    I said that just approximately. Maybe even 100% of today's leechers will give up. :) The point is that this move is definitely going to reduce leeching a lot, because big majority of leechers don't know better than simple one-click internal leeching and all other ways of leeching are too complicated for them.

    yep, this would be the best solution, not the perfect one, but at least, people would have the choice to protect their links if they want.

    Disable the 'remote upload' fonction is a little too radical to my opinion.

    (whilst welcoming the disabling of internal RU) I hate to say this but it is abt 6-7 hours that the downloads count has frozen and my uploads are pending. Are you sort of upgrading something? If yes, will the "missed" downloads appear when you are back to normal operation?

    why are you so much against leeching? you can't stop it. it's been here before you and will be afterwards. i can still download your file and upload them and post it. what will you cry about then? you gave your opinion about 10 pages ago and still trying to make others think your way. no one else can have an opinion but you right? WRONG!! if your files get leeched then move on to the next one. you're the type to have one file and think you should be the only one who can post it because you were first. man kill yourself! i'm not starting anything with you but since you have a opinion try to respect others. btw you can always put a password on your files with your name on it.

    Go ahead. I really don't have a problem with that, I don't mind if some real uploader leech my files, download/reupload or whatever. I have problem with hundreds of lazy leechers who leech others' files with just one click and completely abusing internal RU function and creating a bad name for FSC as spam host. And why you argue with me? Go and explain your point to w-bb mods, because they are the one who wanted to ban FSC because of spam. Go explain your point to Filesonic team, because they are the one who disabled internal RU, not me. Obviously, they think that there is good reasons to disable internal RU or maybe you think that they did that without any valid reason? And why you and others are so mad about that, when you say that there is a lot of other ways to leech that are easy as much as internal RU? Then why you crying so much about internal RU being disabled? Just use those other ways of leeching and stop moaning. And if you really think that it is completely same with or without internal RU and that disabling of internal RU won't reduce leeching, then explain me how is that possible that when I post my files to other hosts that don't allow internal RU (Fileserve, Hotfile, Oron) I don't see almost none of my files being leeched? And why w-bb mods decided to ban FSC because of spam, not other filehosts if you are saying that amount of leeching is completely the same with or without internal RU?

    Two comments please:

    As most of the users would like to earn a little amount of money from the uploading which is a hobby for most of us, leeching is link stealing and can be a reason to get duisappointed and stop uploading stuff in the future.

    Filesonic FTP uploading does not work. There are files uploaded 5 hours now and have not appered in my file manager at all.

    If leeching is link stealing , then what is uploading copyrighted meterial ? Most of files on filesonic is copyrighted meterial. Remote upload was good way to upload easily.

    I really don't understand warez-bb and their MODs. More links means more shearing. It also corresponds with the aim of warez.

    You are correct. Absolutely correct. Most of us are pirates and illegal. But also leeching is link stealing. Both of these are correct.

    If some Great uploaders get angry with this leeching system as they believe that their work is <stolen> and stop uploading, that is very bad for the warez sites and so the admin prefer to be ok with these uploaders and not the leechers. That is the reason. They love the great uploaders with tons of uploaded material and not the leechers with small amount of uploading stuff. IF THEY WAREZ FORUM LOSE A LEECHER IS NOTHING TO THEM. IF THEY LOSE A GREAT UPLOADER IS A CATASTROPHY. This explains everything.

    first, i'm not arguing with you. secondly, the files are going to spread like wildfire throughout the internet with or with you. the trick is squeezing yourself between the "with or without" and getting as much as you can. lets say a group releases a a .rar, guess what, it doesn't matter which host the downloader uses or which person he/her gets it from because it's the same file. it's been transferred time after time. it's why you must bump your thread(s) or move on to the next. as far as the mods on certain boards. well, it's not the uploaders that are lazy, it's really the MODS. instead of making rules that one thread per same file, they ban the entire host.

    i personally dislike the idea of banning the RU because when files are released from the actual group they are posted with FS links, meant for internal RU. take that away and they will post it somewhere like megaupload. which in turn we have to pay MU for premiums just to snatch it. when we could've kept the money right here with the team who pays us.

    like i said, im not trying to argue or fight with you. i just want you to see the full circle before you spit out a incomplete opinion. also, just add passwords to your .rar and the leeching will be shown.

    No. More links means less views and downloads for original uploader, and w-bb mods clearly stated that they want to protect their original uploaders and people who really contribute to that board. Read this post of w-bb mod, it explains everything:

    After that FSC have disabled internal RU. Filesonic does not want to lose big traffic sources like w-bb, so they must pull a trigger and disable internal RU or they will be banned on many major boards and sites.

    but if you dont have copyrights to your file then YOU ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL UPLOADER!! let's say you were first to post it on the board. then the mods should ban any other posts with the same file from the same hosts. that is the only way to protect you. you can't blame a leecher and those mods can't blame FS. you have to blame the MODS!!
