If we're limiting downloads only to "good" (sorry, not really the right term...) members, is because bandwidth costs... if leeches will have them from other members back channel, we can do nothing, but at least they won't eat Jabba's bandwidth ..

I think jabba is trying to get rid of leech just for a bandwith reason... We don't care if someone send a vid from here to another person... as long as they use their connection and so they don't suck all jabba's.......... bandwith... that's it. only technical reason IMO (correct me jabba if I'm wrong)
edit: TT hmmm tough transmission do you think???

Telepaty is always a nice way to communicate, but you didn't get the last part I was sending to you "wait, I'm posting that"

No, it's not just you. I'm guessing people are afraid that they are gonna be pointed out and lose their downloading privliges.
Do you know who downloads the videos Jabba? As in, if I download a certain video, will you know I downloaded it?
If you can, with a little bit of spare time, you could single out those who are downloading without posting reviews and get rifd of them. I'm sure it would save some of your bandwidth.

You can see who is able to download the videos from the list of people in the user group...at the moment I can only track the amount of bandwidth used for each video I have uploaded....

That gokugt4 still managed to posted some stupid things today. I don't know if his posts should be considered as 'so stupid it becomes funny' or as a nuisance. Best not give him access when he reaches 50.

Jabba, I really want to know why I was taken off the download list. I have posted reviews to your great videos and I haven't post whored at all. I only post when I have something interesting or praising to say. So please reconsider and put me back on the list.

TT runs the downloading group and if he has removed you then I am sure he has a very good reason for doing so....I am sure if you send him a PM he will explain the situation to you...

It is also allowed to post critical remarks. Interesting and praising make the perfect ad campaign. And as you know ads are stupid and boring.

Yes, I removed you, as long as others.. you say you post reviews of the vids, but watching at your posts, I rarely saw somethig longer than 2 lines.. I know we keep speaking about quality, but well, as many other take their time to write some nice and entertaining comments, others are not..
BTW, message for Kalim.. today you posted so much... thanks.. and BTW, you won't get access to the d/l section for the next 6 months.. for sure...
