Maybe i can say something..
I was also very surprised that i saw you were banned, but sorry, i can't do anything about it. It wasnt about the leeching, but it was about the fact that you were driving everyone crazy with numerous private messages, requesting this and that.
As it was said:
"I've got few mails + pms with requests from him now, he never contributed, he pmed + mailed more people, he first asked all tiesto livesets, now he's requesting many videoclips....
the thing is we can't keep track of him on the forum, because the requests stuff via pm and email... he check's everyones music list and requests shit from there...."
Sorry, i can't help you with this one. Other moderators all agreed on this point. I kindly answered all your questions, but some other moderators ( i wont say any names ) got pissed cause you kept on stalking them, requesting stuff. Sorry, i really cant help you.
Maybe in a few weeks, when all this has cleared up, you can mail me at [email protected], and i will see what i can do for you. But not now.
As for the rest of the thread:
Quickstep; Jeah i know its not the way to ban them all, and we wont ban all leechers, just because of the simple fact that we CANT.
Mp3 sites will always attract leechers. And not everyone got a sort of connection that i got, so not everybody is able to share stuff.
We know that!! We dont ban a member, just because some other member points him out! We will watch carefully if it really IS a leecher, and also why that is (if its possible).
True, i banned some people, i'm honest about that, but that were people with 30 posts in a year, with 30 of them being "thanx" just to get rid of the "lockdown"-thingie to see the specs of the server for downloading.
We cant give everyone an email if they are leeching, that would be too much work. RMF is switching from mp3-sharing to a more 'grown-up' music site. We are doing reviews from sets/cd's/parties, and also trying to do interviews with DJ's. There is also a database, which we are trying to make up where ALL the trance-mp3z can fit in.
And about the 'blacklist': that is NOT about leechers, but mostly about people who are flaming etc etc (sort of the 'jail' system on TA). And i think that there is only 1 moderator who got a blacklist.
ABTsportsline: Hey dude, havent talked for a while If you still need those video's, mail me! (see email above!) Then i will make up another account for ya!

i thought to myself, "man, what's the point?" why am i going to spend weeks and weeks building up 100 posts to download 1 or 2 livesets? its like they don't even want to share trance.
so thats why i said fuck 'em, and stick to TA. Swampz is cool enough to share whatever he has and not create rules for "downloads per month" or whatever.... He doesn't think he's better than everyone else (much unlike the guys on RMF... except Snuggle - he's cool).

The 100 posts thingie was a maybe i mistake, i go with you there. Some people stopped on RMF cause of the 100 post rule. But it did work for some leechers. We got rid of a lot of them, so that part worked a bit.
People WANT to share music on RMF, but its so crowded with leechers that when someone posts an ftp, its full in 2 minutes. Hell i shared a lot some time ago. Some sets of 100 MB costed me 20 GB of traffic!
The news gets around if something is shared!!
I dont want to say bad things about TA, but you just cant compare TA with RMF! I'm on TA for some time now also, and its nice and cosy here in the Dutch forum (and on the dutch TA IRC channel). But TA is just something different. You say that Swamper doenst care about the sharing etc? Hmm... i dont know.
Let him buy a DECENT server for the forums! The forum is low & not always online & reachable. Its too crowded. RMF is always fast & reachable. This is not meant personally to Swamper. I respect him that he makes such a site. We should all be glad this site excist, as well as that we should be glad that RMF excists!
Greetz,
