Found some people who post "[MF] movie tittle" but not using mediafire link (so far most of them is use hotfile)

as far as i know [MF] is for Mediafire, as [RS] for Rapidshare and [MU] for Megaupload. Am i missing something or i'm just plain wrong
i thought hotfile it would be [HF], easy-share would be [ES]


and is it ok for someone copy paste 12 link of mediafire but change 1 or 2 link to hotfile link? instead upload whole movie, they just upload 100-200mb and get some money from hotfile, and put all the work for the original mediafire uploader
(and somehow, the site where the original link is blocked :eek:mg:)

Course it's all right, you can't complain about it either way!

Most of the other porn forums I visit have banned HotFile because of excessive posts for money making purposes.

It's a complicated issue. All filehosts have some form of rewards program, so it's not like money can't be made elsewhere. :dunno:

I don't care too much about the particulars of the download experience since I use JDownloader. :tea:

I use JDownloader as well and i know that other filehosts offer some sort of reward programs too, but for some reason it's mainly HF that all spammers are using here.

I guess it pays up better, since there is absolutely no other reason to use it: slow downloads for premium users (from my experience), free users can't download with it as much as they can via, lets say mediafire or megaupload with one IP and not as fast...
Anyway, my beef here is not with the filehost itself but with the local spammers. They spam this board with whatever they can find or steal from other uploaders/rippers, its became harder to spot a good and original posts under their thick pile of crap.

Many of those spammers don't even care about this community, or interests that you and me share. They're here with the sole purpose of money making, nothing more. Some even have links in their sigs to shady ads sites, or "How to Make big $$$ with Hotfile" crap...

IMHO the admins need to clean the house.
Also as you've already said there are many boards that have entirely banned HF, or made "Spammers Paradise" forum-subsections for all the spammers to flood it and i think we need this type of thing here too.

The members who were posting Hotfile links just moved to using SharingMatrix, which must give the next best deal. :payup:

Two of those guys are primary sources for some new material at that board, so simply banning them would be a big blow to the community. I really don't know what could be done about it. :dunno:

People who don't post any fresh material and just swipe links would seem like a more clear cut case, but I still wouldn't want to be the one making the "bannable or not" decisions.

Many places compromise with a limit of links posts allowed every 24 hours.

I wonder if this thread is the answer to my question. The question was why are there so many new accounts posting hentai using hotfile?
