Title: Faster download link?
Post by: Vindicator on December 23, 2006, 08:50:49 am

Those provided are slow is there any faster link like rapidshare or gamershell?

For what?

I find rapidshare to be slow and poor, not to mention it deletes files after a certain period.

Right. The community needs something stable.

'Download section'

How about fs2downloads? It seems quite ok.

Why not using BitTorrent? We would only need a tracker, and the more people would download it, the faster it would be for the others.

Because no-one bothers to seed them after a few months and then no-one can get the file.

Ok, this would be the case if you would rely only to it. But what about offering the files as a torrent AND offering them via FileFront?

I don't see the point to do so since the BT ones would only be avaliable for a short time while the filefront ones will be avaliable for much longer. It's too much hassle for far little gain.

I agree with Woo. Torrents never work in small communities like this one.

But torrents are working now, as I posted HERE (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,43608.msg899693.html#msg899693).
