iGuest 3 Report post Posted October 22, 2004 Do hotlink files? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hotlinking files is not allowed for gaming resources because it illegally stealing someone else bandwidth and not everyone can use hotlink protection. Imagine yourself in the posistion of someone elses (being an webmaster), they pay for a package with capped bandwidth and space, they host files for members and no one else, evrything is fine one day and the next day they check their bandwidth meter and it has sky rocketed!!! Because some inconsiderate person has leeched and posted or used their files somewhere else. Wouldn't this upset you if you were manager of an online company or a sole webmaster? I know it would annoy me quite alot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
