The Wolfy among us Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 (edited) No I feel a bit disappointed. All I wanted to do was to show the speed of 3G, and whether anyone denies it or not, everyone uses torrents in india. I thought as far as the laws of the land go, there should not be a link to a torrent, a suggestion to download a torrent. I did neither. From the screenshot I was not suggesting to anyone about the torrent. And you guys may say that torrents are used for only illegal stuff or as someone put it, RARE legal stuff. I agree to disagree. Several open source sites which have huge files have links to torrents. Ubuntu has links to torrents. Custom roms, have links to torrents. Humble Bundle provided links to torrents for the Alan Wake download. How can I be held responsible if people go out of their way to raise a beacon about my screenshot? Do I have to mask my IP from next time? Lets be clear. Would you give me a warning when i like to a torrent client download as well? On the football thread worse is done. People say link me to the full match video etc, which is essentially piracy. /rant over Edited May 24, 2013 by Wolfy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and by the way, it was the MD5 that was sniffed out. As for punishment, this one time Hope put up links to MP3 of Jab Tak Hai Jaan. He was banned for two weeks, and that's that. I found it more ironic that a die hard fan of SRK would pirate instead of purchasing, but that's a different discussion. So as I said, chill.

AtheK Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 relax bharat, the torrent rule is a blanket rule, going about what is right or what is wrong makes it very difficult. Proividing links is an insta suspension, you just posted some news about an app which is directly related to torrent downloading, which is not allowed. BTW Your warn count is not increased, it is just a verbal warning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sackboy Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Wolfy serious ho gaya xD , bhai I don't have access to your IP that would be breach of privacy on the websites part , I don't have access to what IPs are connected to the tracker either , that would make it too easy for law agencies to hunt down pirates . I just googled the size of your file followed by the said websites name , the 2nd or 3rd result was your OST and I matched the seeder/Leacher count and number of files Easy peasy , chill the f**k out man .

Sackboy Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Aman bhai shouldn't there be a count down for warnings ? I have 2 but I got them 2 or 3 years back , I think perma ban is 3 right ? So for mistakes I made so long ago , I can still get perma banned ? I think warnings should expire after a year or something . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perma ban is after 5, count down warning sounds like a good idea, will propose to Sam. Other then that you stop being a samsung fanboy and as a good will gesture i will reduce one from your profile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have expiring warnings with max limit of 3 and you guys should also be a wee bit more liberal with temp bans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avkash Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I have a warn level of 1 for posting an image over the regular size, that too only once by mistake, BC uske baad saale MT ki shaadi ho gayi aur ab wo kuch bhi nhn karta, mujhe warn karke aish kar raha hai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
