Thank You Hack

As Ive mentioned you can always edit your post or make an addition one later on. Also we will be lightning the need for Thank You so that it wont be required all the time if we can get it to work that way...

I think it's silly to be prompted to say thanks or give comments before actually downloading. How do you know it's good until you've downloaded it? Either way, I'll say thanks. :D

Well you only have to do so a couple of times in a day... I think the maximum amount of times was changed to 5, and that is negated even, if you post a single nzb in that day.

Besides, it would be sort of tough to force the post if it were implemented after the download, you could just press the back button on your browser, or close the window. :p

I do agree that it would be nice to be able to browse by category.

I do not agree with you saying that all most of the files are crap. For some people it is exactly what they are looking for.

Also, if you'll remember the NZB post guidlines, there is no porn posting allowed. I completely agree that there are plenty of other places to search for that.

ya my bad dude, after a fresh look, some of the nzbs are actually very good, but what i mean is that we should have more variety in the content instead of just movies, games...

and also may i suggest that the forum automatically delete nzbs that is older than 20 or 30 days old, cuz some news servers actually have retention period that is shorter than 20 days and it's useless to users if there are thank-you posts that keep it coming back up on top...
 

It's in all skins reality...;)


Let us know how this filtering is working out.

There are a few bugs that will need to be fixed. One is that it doesn't save your choice when you leave the section or entire forum and come back, the other problem is realted and that is that if you click on a new page number (page navigation) the setting is lost so to fix that for now the page navigation has just been turned off if you're using the filters.

The plan is to have the setting choice stored in the database so that 1) you can browse out of the section and come back to have your same filter settings set and 2) you can browse through more than 1 page.

Not sure what those ones are like... can you post an example?

I did it the way I did thinking it kinda fits with the post icons used here.
I think he meant just a regular smilie type of icon not a post/thread icon because i'm not relaly sure how a thread icon could be used.:unsure:
 
It seems to me that the requirement to post a "thanks" or whatever to download a NZB is kind of weird. This way others know what members of the forum are downloading. I would rather remain anonymous when I do something considered illegal. I will refrain from using the NZB section from now on.
 
If you're afraid that this might once be hold against you as evidence in court...it won't hold. :P
Saying thank you in a post is no solid proof that you downloaded it.

And instead of saying thanks you can always say something about the movie.
If you liked it or if you think it stinks.
This way threads won't get repetitive either.

I see no problem in this but then again, i haven't been on usenet for months now.

Weve yet to get that into the hack although thats what wede like with maybe a lmit within a given thread also...
 
Agreed.

On top of what Filliz stated, even if it were a record of what were downloading, it only shows that you downloaded an NZB, nothing is shown here beyond that.

NZB files just contain xml data. It's sort of a file that points to files, that point to files on a server. Sort of third person wise.
 
If your that worried then you shouldn't do the same at any sites since they can just log whoever grabs anything. Posting in a thread proves no more than grabbing without the post. Its little more than a notepad file anyway. I think your a bit over consirned but thats your call.
 
im new here i dont post for the thanks. just want to share what i find its not the getting stuff for free that i like its just the getting stuff cuz i can
 
I appreciate the efforts of the whole site and those that post Nzbs not having the resources here so happy to thank those that can
