  3. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Cant believe people are complaining about rapidshare. You find a link for something that you would usually pay for (99% of the time its pr0n) on top of that your downloading it as a free user, and you still have to bitch and moan. I am not a very active user on the net but have never seemed to have a problem with rapidshare. People complaining about speed problems i cannot understand rapidshare im sure is by far the fastest filehosting service around, giving it a crack from my unversity connection i can download files at nearly 6MB/s this shows that the servers can definately handle some serious speed. I have a feeling that the majority or even all of the people complaining about rapidshare on here are people that A) DO NOT have a premium account so therefore have not noticed the benefits and B)LEECH. I dare say if you are complaining this much about just being able to get some p0rn for your happy time you are seriously addicted and may need to step out of the house more often. And for other people who will probably say "Its not just p0rn i have other important things i need to download" If they were that important you would have a premium account.
    I can see how the 100meg file limit can be a little annoying but seriously if you can get to a really fast connection e.g university etc try downloading a file from rapidshare and any other hosting service im pretty sure you will find that rapidshare chews the rest.

    ^^Thanks
    Free users should not complain about rs.com rs/de speed.
    Rs is just a very big filehoster, too many people are downl at the same time.
    When dl' at the same time, the bandwidh will be smaller. Free users will have them (or have a slower speed at that moment) just done to have a support and they gotta have the hardware safe...

    Its sucks that you have to go to rs or other filehosters.. :p

    It's the leechers and the lurkers that complain the most. The true posters have a Premium account so don't have to wait. :)

    Million (could be?) free users (plus a million premium users) downloading at the same time on RS, RS should do something to keep the things going good, without cooked hardware i had mean.

    This is the second thing ive posted on this thread: "to share/dl direct from an other pc" (first software on page 4, 'post 58' on this thread).
    The software can also be used to have an remote help from your friend/familiar that lives somewhere else. Your desktop will be shown on the other side if you need help on your pc (microsoft own software have this option 'remote help' too, but could be dificult?..).

    TeamViewer 3.0 (= current version)
    www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx
    A good one too is these. For use on: Win 2000, Win XP, Windows Vista.
    1,0MB. Different languages, service including, freeware.

    I have a Rapidshare Premium account and I use Flashget to download, but I have been noticed after I got the latest version of Flashget, the account log had not quite matched my actual download. The log often claimed that I have download almost twice as many mB as I did. I wrote to RS, they said many customers using download manager to download has the same experience as I am having.They suggest using the web browser to download instead. Would it not mean a very slow download? Any suggestion and help would be appreciated.
