A "leech" speaks...

[Guest]

Okay, to clarify - to call someone a "leech" is calling them derogatory names, right? For the rest of the "regulars" to join in with that is discouraging. I don't have a problem with the policy, but the uncharitable way it's worded.

I am a regular member of another boxing forum, so while seeing great archive fights may have been one of my interests in being here, it wasn't the only one. However, after seeing hostility I find it offputting.

you have to understand rick pays alot for this site and for people to come along and download without contribution saps valuable bandwidth, bandwidth he pays for, it is like shoplifters taking from stores, they hike up prices and ruin it for eveyone else that is why the 100 post system is in place.
You can see why there is animosity towards people like that.
It is a cool site when you get past that, the internet is full of malicious people and i have seen it on this site a couple times so you gotta understand the mistrust, if you just be nice and enjoy the site you will be ok.

It isn't fair. It is ****ing unfair for you to have to have 100 posts to download. You should be able to sign up and download all you want. I'm upset for you leeches...I too use to be a leech...now I'm a beeach..

You know, I don't even know why I started this now, I feel quite guilty. I guess it was about three in the morning (UK), I was tired, it seemed rude.

But I definitely do not dispute the ruling, it's a good ruling. But to be labelled as potentially someone there to suck the blood out of people? Hmmmmm...

Wow, here's one from the past... my very first thread. I still stand by it as well - while someone joining just to wipe fights annoys me as much as the next guy, the ill-mannered way it's worded leaves a lot to be desired.

Since this post I've tried to regularly upload fights, especially now I have broadband.

Speaking of which... you can now see Tyson vs. Holyfield II in the downloads section.



The Anorak - definitely not a leech, but resents the fact that such could be implied when he was new.

Just curious about the video quality in the Member's area. Does the quality differ from fight to fight, or are they all the same?
I have most modern fights, but unfortuanately some are terrible quality.

See? That's exactly the sort of response I'm talking about. MANNERS, people.

What happened to you Anorak? I remember you used to post normal stuff now all you do is complain about downloads and other members. Did I miss somthing?

This is an old one I resurrected. Maybe I am working long hours though...
