You must download this video (from local) b4 leaving an op

Post by Eek-1 » Sun Mar 04, 2007 9:59 am

I downloaded a video from an indirect link (instead of local. Because often times I had difficulties finishing downloads off local) and just wanted to leave an opinion. But the site doesn't allow me. So now I have to redownload from local just to op. This degrades me.

My suggestion is, if a video has in/direct links in it then allow everyone to submit opinions regardless they got it from local or not.

Some people just shouldn't submit their opinions at all. :(

This policy was implemented to deter, if not necessarily prevent, people from spamming all 10 or all 1 opinions.

I believe firefox will allow you to resume downloads, though I'm not entirely sure if it'd work for the org.

Godix spelled it correctly. It's without the D on the credits even.

God, yes, please. I've been saying this ever since they instituted this rule.

Of course, you don't even have to have gotten a video from ANY of its links on this site in order to have seen it. There ARE such things as conventions, giving out CDs full of AMVs, swapping among friends, file-sharing utilities, etc. ... and some people who have seen videos through those channels don't want to have to download them all over again just to leave an opinion. Need I reiterate that some people around here are still on dial-up?

These last posts have a good point. It would have been a lot easier to run my all 1 free op thread if I didn't actually have to download the damned things first.

Let me guess, I'm not helping the cause any here am I?
