Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Well dirk I'm very sad to see you leave the forum under such a cloud. I've known you ofcourse for a number years having first came in contact with you on the UK Forum. I do hope that you reconsider your decision. If not then I'd just like to personally thank you for years of delivering top quality uploads, so I hope once the dust settles that you'll reconsider your decision as your lack of presence would ofcourse be a big blow to the forum Sad

Don't let the trolls and leechers win!

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Over time I've found a ridiculous amount of the content I've shared on this forum being wholesale copied and placed on other forums with zero credit. Given this sad state of affairs, I've taken the decision that I will no longer be posting any videos. Nor will I be supplying re-uploads via PMs or whatever. The lake is well and truly dry.

On 1fichier alone I've over 4,000 files hosted, at close to 1.5TB of space. So I've been generous I think you can agree, as all that content has been shared openly and in good faith on this forum.

The time I've taken to do the encodes, especially the ones from DVDs, has been significant over the years. As has the investment in additional computers and storage. I will maintain an archive going forward, but for my own use.

A small percentage of ad-hoc forum members have I'm afraid ruined it for all. Thankless leeches have no place in our hobby, yet seem to lurk everywhere.

Given much of the content that has been taken has been re-hosted, I won't be deleting any files that I've uploaded.

I'm therefore signing off. Farewell....

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Moving on I've noticed a lot of demands from well leechers as to say across the whole board, demanding reuploads and then demanding what format they want it in.

I'd just like to say on this note, it's at the discretion of the uploader how he wishes to upload his video, we are not here to be dictated to. If you PM the member in question and ask politely then the request might be kindly returned but please don't make such demands on an open forum.

Another member made a post containing about 100 links demanding that all those links that are now dead also be reuploaded. Once again the member in question had not once in all his visits to this forum even bothered to thank one single uploader so from the uploaders point of view just why should he go to all the trouble and effort when the beggar doesn't even have the good grace to say thanks.

On behalf of all the uploaders can I just state one thing, we all do this as a hobby, we not get paid to do it and we all have real life's outside this forum if only that section of the forum realised this.

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

I just wanted to say how wonderful it is to be able to have a proper wash now that the surgical bandage got removed today and replaced with a waterproof plaster and removable sock Thumb up

Also I just wanted to say how great it is to watch the return of TFI Friday on Channel 4 for all those watching telly in the UK - A real reminder of my younger days Thumb up

That's what pregnant women say if I remember correctly Tongue

I am glad things are going well mate and good luck on full rehabilitation to full use of your ankle Smile

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Good evening all, just to let you know that my operation was yesterday and it was a success, they removed the screw and it was massive. I was fully awake for the operation which only took about 20 minutes, I asked to see the screw and they showed it to me, I then asked if I could keep it as a souvenir and they told me they weren't allowed to and had to dispose of it under health and safety grounds. (I blame ofcom for this) Big Grin

The hospital staff were all very friendly and the food was actually very good to my surprise Thumb up We had this sexy Irish nurse on my ward and when she asked me if I'd be ok to go back to my own place as she did say she'd prefer it if I stayed with a relative instead just to be extra cautious, I then said to her if you want I could always stay at your place instead which was greeted with a cheeky smile Tongue

I got home last night at the back of 6, I have a bandage on the wound which will hopefully be taken off tomorrow and in 10 days time I then have to return to the hospital to have the stitches removed and then undergoe a final X-Ray on the ankle just to ensure that everything is still good. I'm signed off work for the next 2 weeks and then I'll be able to resume my duties. What a relief to see the back of that pesky screw, when I seen the size of it, no wonder it was causing me so much discomfort, I can't believe that I had that inside me for all those months but it's served it's purpose I suppose.

So it's taken just over 5 months for my ankle to make a complete recovery, the surgeons have done a fantastic job as it must have taken a lot of skill to reconstruct what was in effect a full reconstruction job Thumb up

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Well I posted here last week that I was heading back to work well that's now been delayed as I received a letter from the hospital informing me that they were happy to proceed with the second operation which will now take place on Wednesday. This should be very straight forward and simple one as it's to have the pin removed from my ankle which was placed there back in January to fuse all the bones back into place.

I am happy that this has now come to a conclusion but I'm shitting it as I have a fear of being put under. The operation I had back in January I went for a spinal injection which numbed me from the waste down which wasn't exactly the most enjoyable thing to ever happen to me. However what I liked about that operation was the fact that I remained fully consensus throughout the whole operation. It took bloody hours I must say for the numbing to wear off Blush If I go with the general anaesthetic then hopefully I should be discharged the same day.

Anyway on the bonus side of things I'll get to see all the sexy nurses again so it's not all bad TongueThumb up

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

WTF - Just been on the Studio66 Clare Richards Thread in which one member quoted an entire cap and video set which quiquems very kindly posted last year with the following sentence below.

"Bit of a long shot, don't suppose any one has this vid?"

If you think that's bad the member in question has thanked 0 times yet 5 members then thanked his begging post. Please do not encourage the trolls!!!!!!!!

For those members who continue to do this can I remind you that on this forum we have a PM system, if you send the member in question and ask him very nicely for a reupload then that would be manners rather than spamming the fuck out of this forum,

Thank you!

Re: Off-Topic Discussion

Well I've never been informed via e-mail of new messages on this forum before mate. What I have noticed however before this forum went down and since it came back is one problem still persists. I've seen myself read a private message but still have the number 1 hovering over the top of it even though I have just read it.

Moving on just to let you all know videobam is currently down so I won't be able to upload anything videowise at the moment until it has stabilised. As a result of this all videobam posts will not be available until this has been sorted Sad
