As you probably now, rapidshare arranged new rules - since 1st july. The impact on uploaders simple - smaller storage (i used more than 200gb, now it is restricted to 50gb). I dont care that i am not benefited for uploads (rapidpoints for downloading rapidshare files are canceled as well), but i want to provide stuff (and i want to do), we have to change system here as well:
1. No more reuploads. If you want new stuff, i cant revive old stuff because of limit mentioned above (i can have only 50gb of live links on my account, maybe it will be necessary to reduce it on 10gb)
2. imagine it as 50GB HDD, when new stuff shall coming, old stuff has to be deleted so:
we can make agreement:
a) how long shall i let the stuff uploaded (a week or two? or?)
b) how can you select what you want (for example we could let you know what stuff we donwloaded recently, or we can settle som kind of vote, etc...)
We get this stuff because someone shared it, so we would like to share it forward. So please help us to provide better services :) Any suggestions are welcomed.
Peace

You've gone for the RapidMedium if you are talking about 50gb storage. This is actually secured storage that won't get deleted as long as you keep your account at this level.
On the "Settings" at the bottom of your account page you should have a tickbox that says "Automatically delete inactive files (after 60 days without a download). This option allows you to exceed your storage without upgrading to a bigger hosting package". Tick this and you can have loads more storage - the only driver for deletion will be the 60 day no downloads (which is as the old system anyway).
I would also suggest in the settings that you set the minimum and maximum levels for your account - then rapidshare won't automatically upgrade your account above your max level.
Hope this helps.
Also, many thanks for all the boots that I have downloaded from here :-)
Whatever you decide upon will be fine. Much respect to you and the the other blogs who have shared some mind-blowing stuff that I personally would never have heard. I know Rapidshare's decisions are purely commercial but you can't help but feeling there's also pressure from "somewhere else". Oh and happy 4th July.
Firstly I would like to echo the remarks above - what you do is just fantastic and thanks to your efforts and those of Dave at QB I now have a floyd collection beyond any wildest dreams I ever had!!
Inspired by your decision to fill as many gaps as possible I have trawled thru the archives, I'll leave the RS advice to those better informed and instead just list a few essentials which appear to have been unavailable here (or elsewhere) for quite a while - If space is limited it would be just great to have an opportunity (however time limited)to fill these remaining gaps

Hi Tomi,
perhaps it is possible for you to write a (hyper)text which is always on top of the blog or easy to find with the search function.
In this text you could write your latest uploads marked as "new upload" or "re-upload" with text links.
In the comment from this (hyper)text we would be able to write our wishes for re-ups of dead 'rapidshare'-links.
So we would have one place visible to anyone for your newest uploads and for our wishes.
If you need a limitation for your uploads, perhaps one month?!?
Thanks for your efforts and work!

Maybe you don't like it but you could try Megaupload...
You could do that : you upload some new things and one day you stop uplaoding new things and you reupload some old things. It will be better for people who have discovered this blog and can't download what you've posted long time ago. I may be wrong though because it will be difficult for stocking all that you have...
