I agree with everything on the account that hotfile doesn't allow me to resume downloads using opera/firefox which is madness because i have really bad internet... AND i need those resumes terribly especially when my line dcs at randomActually there is way to download up to 10 files from hotfile at once (free dl). If you want I can write a tutorial how to.
Yes!!
Plz ;>

personally, i don't think that any of the file hosts should be banned. i mean, sure, it is annoying that you have to wait for about a minute to actually start downloading on some sites, but, if the doujinshi is good, don't you think it would be worth the wait? also, a good way to stop being annoyed with the wait before you start downloading. i recommend having something else to do, and not watch the timer count down, like maybe look for more doujins you want to download.

^ for some of us, the problem is not the wait times, its not being able to download from that site.
Shouldn't a moderator/admin be discussing this issue too?

I am thinking of banning all depositfiles, uploading.com, and similiar links from the upload forums. What are peoples thought on this?Reading through all the posts in this thread, it is evident that there are some uploaders who are sharing their goods and materials for the sake of earning money. However, we must also take into consideration that there are uploaders who do so out of sincerity and goodwill; it is possible that they are unable to utilise the more popular hosting sites such as megaupload and mediafire.
Banning the use of the less popular hosting sites may reduce the amount of hentai available (and perhaps clutter too), but I am somewhat against the idea. If the downloaders are unhappy, then they can choose not to access a particular link.
The same can be said of reality: Customers can always choose not to patronize a particular company... unless of course it is a monopoly.

At the moment, I am not so much concerned about the hosting sites that uploaders choose to use; I am more worried about the uploads created solely for the sake of earning money. Looking through random threads in the upload section, there is a possibility that the afore-mentioned scenario may very well be true.
I am against Fakku becoming a hentai site where people upload stuff for monetary gains.

Well.... Bot uploaders are probably uploading for the sake of money, IMO.
and IMHO, the best way to prevent people uploading for money is to ban the sites altogether, and maybe post which uploading sites are only allowed in a new thread?
Not being able to upload to a particular site shouldn't be a problem... or an excuse, because there is still megaupload, mediafire, ifile.it, rapidshare, etc.

This decision is based on our values. What do you value more, the doujins people provide, or not letting people get profits from our downloads at the risk of losing the doujins they provide if their filehost is banned?

I just don't like some sites (like Hotfile) because they're shit. :|

Rapidshare and megaupload are also "money-making" hosts...
Today I'm going to write a tutorial how to download 8 files at once from hotfile.
8 files per 15 minutes (+ w8ing time if is).

It's obvious... I don't need to "elaborate" it.

Since you made a claim that Rapidshare and Megaupload are money-making hosts, it is your job to prove it to us with evidence to make it obvious, isn't it?
Anyway, there is a site which provides torrents for the doujinshi, and seeing as you are the uploader of some of the torrents, i should be thanking you for that.
+ rep to you for that.

True about megaupload being a money site, but IMO... it's probably the best ddl site among all. (I upload stuff to megaupload and I don't care about the reward points. All I care is for people to be able to download files without having much problem). And yeah, rapidshare and hotfile is so annoying because you have to wait about 15 minutes after downloading one file (no matter how big or small the file size is).
The rule for file hosts should be:
<100> upload to mediafire with some mirrors.
>100 mb --> upload to megaupload also with some mirrors (since I'm too lazy to split files =P)

Since you already got rapid premium could you use rapid instead? I think people use rapid more often than hotfile (i'm one of them) =P

1. That rapid premium isn't mine, I only use it
2. Even if it was mine, I would say no

If FAKKU is more concerned about people earning money through downloads, its best to ban every site except mediafire.
If FAKKU is more concerned about the amount of doujins shared by people, its best to not ban any site at all.
It is seemingly impossible to fulfill both of these factors at once, there will always be arguments.
