No, once again - The class of leechers im voting to try and get rid of in the hub is the type that are not accomodated in any of the major hubs in the entire Direct Connect network - the multi hub leachers, brought on by the Direct Connect ++ client. Those that are forced to have low upload numbers ...

What do you class as leeching? Sure, being in the 1 hub with 1 slot is also a class of leeching, but can be understandable if you have ISP problems. Being in 100 hubs with only 1 slot is going completely against the 'file sharing' principles. There is absolutely no need to be in that many hubs at on...

I would still like to know peoples opinions on this matter, though ive decided to resign as an Operator from the DC hub due to a major difference in opinion.

If the hub rules decide to change their policy to that which the general public wishes to see, then ill be glad to come back.

Direct Connect Leechers Poll

OK I want peoples opinions on this... Some people dont mind the 100+ hub/2 slot people, but personally, I really hate the idea of someone coming in, taking my files and not contributing... At the moment, ive not been asked by TFArchive to kick people from the hub who are doing this, but I want to be...

Best songs of the night - Jessica Garlick (the UK entry) and that 'runaway' song (cant remember which country entered it), but it was a rare occurance on that thing, an audible song.

Yeah - ive gotta put my point in on this as well (even though we had the 'copyright' discussion a few weeks ago) The only stuff that should be shared actively on filesharing applications such as these are episodes that were freely available to the public at no cost (other than the TV licence fee, or...

That sounds like the file wasnt completely finished downloading when you tried to open it. Ive had one episode that did that, I had to contact TFArchive since it was a problem server side (the file wasnt compressed correctly and was only partially uploaded) so if, after you try and download it again...

Anyway of ordering the PVCs in the UK?

Hi all... I was wondering if there was any way of ordering the PVC figures direct from the UK anywhere? If not, is there any reliable company that can send them out from overseas? So far ive only found 1 figure wherever ive looked, which is Cromedome, which I found in my local Forbidden Planet - I a...

Good for you as long as you didnt pay too much for em... You do realise thats just someone downloading all the episodes (like anyone else can) and redistributing them in CD format? Theoretically, once they have the episodes downloaded, theres nothing stopping them just duplicating to order, so ebay ...

Just wondering? I remember getting the toy as a kid and looking all over to see him 'in action.' Since im getting back into my 80's cartoons in a big way, I would really like to know if he ever appeared in any series (id assume it would have been possibly post headmasters, since the whole powermaste...
