ok, mind telling a bit more on that Misu or Katie?

The server can't handle the forum cause it is taking a lot of resources, katie was going to have to move but she thought about disabling the big hacks that takes up resources and see how the forum performance will go. So far the RPG and Shoutbox were disabled.




then please

DONATIONS ARE WELCOME. VERY.

*nods* yes, im sure alot of the members do including me. as for the leacher thing, im not sure we will have are norm members and the ones that stop by from time to time to chat but other then that im not sure atm, some other things that come to mind;

member with no post? email them and say post onces or your account will be removed.

we could have an support the site add link in the Site Announcements/News ([Only registered and activated users can see links])sec and idk give rep to the one that do it"we have honest members that wouldn't lie about it"

trade links with some sites?

ummm thats all i have atm on ways to help the site and get rid of the leaches

hmm...

As much as I know, on one of the forums I moderate certain means were take to avoid the same problem. Dunno if it helps, but I'll try...

1) Cleaned topics, where last post was older than "n" months (we picked n=2)
2) Topics got locked after reaching "n" pages and recreated as new ones, starting from quote of first post and few pages from the end (we picked 100 and 10)
3) Users with extremelly low post count (<3) were sent gentle warnings, inactive (didn't post or do anything last 3 months) got warnings as well, those who ignored them, got deleted. We asked to post at least once in next two weeks or reply to the e-mail.
4) Posting a link hurt less than posting a pic. A sticky was posted asking people to post links to pics instead of pics themselves.
5) Cut the sizes of avatars/sigs (please don't do that, its cool as it is, but less would suck)
6) some ads on the bottom of the starting page. Its also possible to get a deal that registered users wouldn't see them, although all limits for ads = less money.
Sticky asking people to check the ads from time to time and support the forum.


I don't really understand though how perv section could put much stress if all files are hosted on megaupload, fileshack, etc... and perv users have to pay some fee, right"? (never checked that option, tho I came here googling for a perv game). Oh, and downloads should probably be kept no matter how old they are, as more downloads = more peole wishing to get them.


PS. If I didn't understand something and posted irrelevant advices, sorry. Just trying to be useful...

havent you made it so you need 10 posts to download (if you havent then do) and make it so people who have under 30 posts will have there account deleted within a month (people might just be posting on the downloads that say you have to post before seeing the links). that should get rid of leachers.

I don't think it would be a bad idea to make it where you need 50 posts to view the download section. Also to stop people from spamming small sentences and such, delete anything that is just spam exe(thx for the upload). It doesn't take a minute to throw down a few sentences about the topic. Anyways I'll see about donating now.

Making it where you need this and that many posts to enter a download section could easily ruin this forum :-/...And I don't think it would help to much seeing has it would cause a hell of alot more spam

Hmm well, i do love the forum, but i'm rarely using the shoutbox, so if i'm not reading this topic i wouldn't know that it was gone. But i know it's eating database, and someday, will be going down because too heavy ;p

Oh Noe's u can't go deleting old posts, coz that'll include old uploads with links that are still valid, i'm buggered if i'm gonna keep on re-uploading the same stuffs over and over again ... just to satisfy ' deleting old posts'
Bah~

Just don't go screwing with old uploads, coz if that happens i won't upload anything else.

Kishuy
09-08-2007, 04:41 PM
Uploads of music and anime never.. they are important!!!

Just saying old news and maybe find a free server where u could back up some files till u get more space

We need to clean up the forum a bit. 10 posts is low IMO. I mean, its very easy to spam and get that much. Most members here are leachers for the downloads. Many members also spam such as off/topic dicussions.

Also, many members also have been looking through the download boards *Look at Who's online, and click on a random newbie, a person with a white screen name* and click their profile. I always notice that a newbie is always at the download boards. No others :1:

Kishuy
09-08-2007, 05:23 PM
well.. even if u try hard.. there always will be leechers..

what u can do is to put a minimum post count to donwload like in the renders (but not so much).. but then spam will increase...

Sora
09-08-2007, 05:25 PM
But what are we supposed to do then? :/

Kishuy
09-08-2007, 05:39 PM
well.. put the post and control the spam..

as for the server space.. well, deleted post.. kick some leechers (don't worry they come back), maybe use only one skin for the forum, take things that u don't need, and find a free server to back up things when u need it..

also, mirror some uploads to free host and delete the original upload on the website server with the permission of the uploader.. that would give u a lot of space

Hm... how about putting limitation like you will need to be online on this forum for 20hours before you are allowed enter the Hentai DL Section? And the total time counts are only when you account are active, not just in Online(Sleep) mode. Some Chinese forum uses that kind of rule to push out leecher.

And i would like to inform that the e-mail that someone(Sry, but i really donno who) is sending me to get attention on this topic end up in my Yahoo Bulk folder...

It's nice to talk to you again, wolfie, I miss conversing with you. The only place I ever got to chat with you was the shoutbox.

Take care. I hope the sb comes back. [Only registered and activated users can see links] ([Only registered and activated users can see links])
