Dear users,

Those who don't will discover it now, others who have been using this service know very well you can exchange your earned WRZ$ for premium download accounts here: Services and Returns for WRZ$. We used to give Rapidshare accounts for WRZ$ exchange. This service was made possible because service team has been posting CAB files and mirrors throughout the forum since long, generating points that we used to generate premium accounts for users who were willing to pay 1500 WRZ$ for it. Rapidshare changed their policy and doesn't allow generating points-for-downloads any more. That's why we have to look for another hosting company to keep this service going.

For the moment we are uploading CAB files and mirrors on uploaded.to allowing us to gather points again, but we don't know if this is the right choice. That's why we want to know which server you guys prefer, and why, and if there's any server you absolutely don't want CABs or mirrors on as you eventually can't download from it your place or country. We have a list of file hosting services here: http://forum.ppcwarez.org/viewtopic.php?p=536422#536422

Please feedback on this:

- What hosting service do you prefer and is most accessible for you?
- What hosting service do you don't want us to use, and why?

Please keep in mind we are uploading CAB files and mirrors for the moment on uploaded.to, so you really should check if this one is suited for you.

Thanks for reply and hope to get this service running again soon.

I'm fine with uploaded.to. Works great in Belgium and like you said before it generates points and money, that you both can exchange for premium account for our users who want to exchange their WRZ. I upload myself all my releases since a couple of days on uplaod.to, so I guess - thinking also about your cab files - in time it will be very useful to have a premium account there.

Megaupload also works good for me.

1. depositfiles.com (very popular)
2. uploaded.to (possibly not, because I'm using it now and will eventually earn a premium account.. but as you've started with this one, then it's ok for me)
3. Megaupload (this would be good because it is very popular. But it's not really necessary because of the premiummod)
5. uploading.com
6. sharingmatrix.com (these are bastards, so it would be good to be a premium user to get round the hours they make you wait... but it's not very popular actually)
7. anything else

I'll update if I forgot anything.

personally I was using rs and mu but now just mu once my rs expires

Perhaps a poll will do well here

Nope. We need arguments.

i like megaupload because of unlimited download/upload and reward program
had RS premium acc for years but now they don't have rs points.... so i moved to MU

also if you (ppcwarez staff) bought mu acc for 200$ that would include lifetime platinum membership and double rewards... since you have a lot of traffic i think that ppcw could make a lot of money with the right organization...

Now, that's what I call an argument. Though you never know what's going to happen to other file servers in time. Don't know what happened to those who had a lifetime RS premium account. We ourselves just extended our services account for one year - used 50.000 RS points for that - and we don't get a dime back for it. Pure fraud we call this.

Our administrators should also think indeed about our VIPs and other groups that have access to premium account trough this site. In time we'll have to move eventually to some other file server too. Also, as we're uploading everything on uploaded.to now, we realize our VIPs don't have premium access to this one. Any VIP who wants us to still post a mirror on RS may ask so and shall be served asap.

didn't think rs did a lifetime account

Well, I would prefer megaupload to any of them other crappy ones

[red6devil]

Frankly, from what i've seen of uploaded, it seems pretty crappy and now i know why i've been seeing more of it lately. It always sends the message

The file status can only be queried by premium users - Purchase a premium account now!

and quite a number of topics are getting comments from users complaining of this.
I continue with my account with RS simply because1) my accumulated points will give me two years of premium access, and 2) more importantly, it still is the service from which i dl 80/90% of the time - it has market share.
Of the rest, megaupload, 4shared and mediafire provide good reliable service, albeit without the coverage of RS.
BADONGO seems a very popular service but i've never found anything to dl from them.
Sharingmatrix is a disaster, it won't work with my downloader.
Filefactory, depositfiles and hotfiles are abusive in their time delays for regular downloaders.

Good luck in your choice, you will almost certainly leave some of us very happy and others very unhappy.

BTW, sorry, but i don't like the link checker; there are some sobs who delight in seeing the X where they've got our files cancelled. Personally, i think the link checker offers no real benefit to true users and helps the sobs who cancel our files.

Yep, we're aware of this. Looks like some cases we posted wrong links. Hey, it's new to us! ... We are learning/discovering/searching our way to work with this server. In time no such 'crappy' links should appear no more. We repair as soon as we discover a post complaining about this. Please feel free to point us to those links you have problems with, we'll take care of it... we're the flashing service team, remember? Be positive, comment are nice, handling problems & finding solutions is better.

Megaupload - nice host but very slow upload speed for me.
Depositefiles - nice upload speed, unlimited storage, popular
HotFile - nice upload speed, unlimited storage, popular
Uploaded.to - nice upload speed but the button "Show uploaded files" does not work and I can't see my files. I have only download link and delete link that's all. Not very popular.
