Ban Sharingmatrix-Yes or No-Vote Here!!!

Do you want that sharingmatrix gets banned from phun?Vote here!​

 

Excellent Idea there PbKing, if it stays up. No question about what should happen though.

 

Ban SM and only keep Hotfile and RS (plus the other "old" allowed hosts).

 

LOL! Might be the right direction to take on this, also good to see PB edit out his sig, might have seemed like he was bias or something

 

Yea was a bad idea

 

I'm going to risk the wrath of mod-dom and give this thread a well deserved BUMP so that more people can see it and respond.

 

not before time too.. thanks PB..

 

SharingMatrix is now FileSonic!
Dear SharingMatrix users,

We're very pleased to announce the upcoming launch of our new file sharing brand, FileSonic.com!

Here are some answers to questions you may have:

Why are we doing this? What does this mean for you?
We believe that FileSonic.com is a great brand that will grow and become an everyday name on the Internet. This means that users will utilize the site even more and that your files will be more often downloaded from this highly reliable service.

FileSonic.com will bring:

•More features, faster downloads and uploads, and a much better site overall!
•All your old SharingMatrix links will continue to work as they are.
•During the first while, you will still be able to generate SharingMatrix.com links directly from FileSonic.com
When is this happening?
We are integrating more and more of the new FileSonic features as we speak. Expect a full release in mid-July, or possibly sooner!

What do I need to do?
Absolutely nothing! Just continue using our service and enjoy all the benefits of what will become "the world's best file sharing site!"

 

Voted, and the way things are looking right now, it's unanimous!

Anyway, the only ones who would vote #2 are busy spamming the forums for cash! :shhh:

 

ban everything cept megaupload :439:

 

SM is pretty shitty. Someone else mentioned that their double weekend points for this month isn't helping the cause. Maybe things will slow down in SVF in a couple weeks. Hopefully the cream will rise to the top and we'll all be able to figure out the best host for the forum.

 

ban please so i can upload again

 

I think it's pretty clear that Sharingmatrix/Filesonic isn't reliable enough of a filehost to be used here at Phun - there's been numerous complaints from free users and users that have recently signed up with the Sharingmatrix service at Phun. If you actually have to use a download manager to have Sharingmatrix links work HALF the time?!?

 

PbKing, I just noticed that the poll results aren't public, that was a mistake, we should be able to see who the single moron who voted to keep SM is so that the jagoff can be ridiculed and made fun of forever.

Seriously though, public poll results would ensure that cashwhores don't create a bunch of accounts and spam the poll.

 

Up to 3 now but the results are pretty much a landslide.

Even though the results aren't public, the fact that we have yet to see any reasonable replies supporting Sharingmatrix, that's pretty much a clear sign that even people who use it can't really fully support SM with good quality intent.

 

:2cent:
as a normal downloader i don´t see any major "quality"-issues of SM compared to HF, RS (as a free downloader), MU and many more - actually as a uploader i like SM´s performance.

isn´t this more an issue of "abuse" in general? wasn´t there "thread-whoring" for RS-points? don´t you think that people you complain about might switch to HF when SM is dismissed here and continue to post their stuff?
(oh, and... certain differences in effort aside - what´s "quaity" content in general?)

don´t get me wrong - i have no problems to re-visit a decision and change it when necessary, but wouldn´t it be better to find solutions to contain socalled "crap" by implementing certain "limits" and "obstacles", regardless what filehosts people are allowed to use here?

 

very good question, every-whiny-body's snivelling about good ol' days when porn quality was better, what was that? BluRay disks? Just name it, even tiny hint would help. Hope it wasn't something from prohibited content section of the rules lol

 

just ban

 

Wait for FileSonic !!!

 

Where's the choice for banning SharingMatrix and HotFile? They're equally terrible. The only people who say HotFile is better are those who have purchased a premium account and don't want it to go to waste, or those who upload to HotFile and want a monopoly on alternative file hosts.

SharingMatrix should go. But only if HotFile goes with it.
