hi guys,


becouse of the new ftp options i need to seriously think about some rules for the ftp, im not sure whether i should allow people to leave links on other forums and sites to their mix's hosted here.


i understand if its tracks you produce but mix's surely arent as important, anyway its upto you lot to decide what you want.


but remember i have a monthly bandwidth quota to work with, when i reach it the ftp will have to close while we wait for the next month to start.


cheers

If people want to host tracks/mixes etc let them do it at their expense.....


For those who do try www.globalbeatz.net (http://www.globalbeatz.net) for a good deal. Unless maybe Forshay has thought about this as a sideline? Could be a wicked money spinner forshay, I'd move my mixes straight away :smiley2:

I think NO Tobes, it's a liberty to spread the word of whats supposed to be TopSecret FTP, you provide, you pay, andpeople should appreciate that. I'll give them the option of a place to store tracks and mixes, details will be on the new site, 50/100mb deals,(no profit-just expense-unlimited bandwidth) i got some peeps whohave taken up the offer already, so its looking good.


Plus Tobes, I know a goodplace for unlimited bandwidth hosting,simple but cheap, PM if you want details.





NO TAKING THE P*SS OUT OF THE FTP OR THE FORUM!!!
